Hi there! I’m Dr. Henry Martinez, founder and pediatric dentist at Big Apple Pediatric Dentistry. I’ve dedicated my life to helping children maintain good dental health while creating a nurturing and comfortable environment for them to feel at ease during their dental visits.
My mission as a pediatric dentist is to create a welcoming and safe space where children feel comfortable and supported in their dental journey. I believe that every child deserves the highest quality of care, delivered with warmth, compassion, and genuine concern for their well-being. Through my kind and gentle approach, I strive to create positive dental experiences that will stay with my patients for a lifetime and inspire them to prioritize their dental health as a vital component of their overall wellness.
