Meet The Team
Celiany López Rivera, DMD
Dr. Celiany López Rivera was born and raised in Puerto Rico. From a young age, Dr. López dreamed of being a pediatric dentist. She prioritized her life around education and learning with this dream in mind.
Graduating Magna Cum Laude, she obtained her Bachelor of Biology from the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus, her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Universidad Central del Este in the Dominican Republic, and her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Puerto Rico, Medical Sciences Campus, where she completed her Pediatric Dentist Residency Program.

Consistent with her passion for helping children, she strives to provide the best possible dental experiences. She has a genuine enthusiasm for encouraging and teaching children the importance of oral health, prevention, and maintaining a healthy smile. With her passion comes patience and enjoyment when helping children address and cope with dental anxieties, especially those of patients with special needs.
Dr. López feels a great sense of fulfillment when she is able to help an apprehensive child feel comfortable in our office. With this, Dr. López is not only bilingual (Spanish and English), but fluent in Disney Princesses, Superheroes, Kpop, and just about everything in between!
Dr. López Rivera loves cooking, spending time with her husband José, their rescue cat Nala, and family and friends.
Dr. López’s goal is to welcome your child into a kind, fun, and happy environment while providing the best dental care!
