Jaileni Alejo Fermín, Periodontist

Katherine Lara is a specialist at Dental Place and is listed on the clinic’s team roster as an Odontopediatra, meaning a pediatric dentist. Her work is oriented toward consultations—both a general dentist consultation and a treatment plan consultation—so families can understand what’s needed and how the plan will be carried out. In a clinic environment where multiple dental specialties are available, a pediatric dentist helps keep children’s care structured and family-centered. For international patients arranging dental visits, having a pediatric specialist listed at the same clinic can simplify scheduling when a child needs more than a routine check.
