Get to know Pediatric Dentist Dr. Krystle Dean-Duru, who serves patients in Ashburn, Virginia.
Dr. Dean-Duru, as known by her patients as “Dr. Krystle”, is a leading pediatric and children’s dentist at Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, conveniently located in Ashburn, Virginia. She is thrilled to join her mom, Dr. Lynda Dean-Duru, in practice, fulfilling her commitment to helping each child and parent have a positive and transformative dental experience, with compassion and fun.
“At Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, we practice from the heart—delivering outstanding customized pediatric dental care to create an experience that exceeds each patient’s expectations in every area of contact. We are authoritative leaders in pediatric dentistry utilizing lasers and other advanced technology, while providing education and resources to parents, patients, and affiliated healthcare providers” according to the dental practice’s mission statement.
Having matured as an integrative laser pediatric dental surgeon and absorbing the ethos of Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, Dr. Krystle works tirelessly to stay abreast of emerging research, and improve the quality of life for children by learning from the world’s leading researchers and clinicians.
“Caring for children is so powerful and rewarding and with that, understanding the importance of utilizing gentle and minimal intervention therapies. Treating the source of their issues—instead of the symptoms—and focusing on early prevention, has been critical to my role in educating parents and assisting their blossoming child’s development into a healthy and resilient adult” she stated.
Having studied psychology, Dr. Krystle earned her undergraduate degree from Columbia University in New York. She then graduated with her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry in Richmond, Virginia and completed her pediatric residency at Interfaith Department of Dental Medicine in Brooklyn, New York, where she served in a leadership role as Chief Resident.
“Family dentistry has been a way of life for me, and the passion for caring for children is in my genes. My mother, Dr. Lynda Dean-Duru, also a pediatric dentist, was my first inspiration towards family dentistry. Having started my journey in family care working as a pediatric dental assistant at Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, I spent many summers as my mother’s mentee. Watching what seemed like a magical healing art she deployed while treating her patients and knowing the need and the power of proactive preventive dental health for children, I chose a career specializing in pediatric dentistry” expressed Dr. Krystle.
Having matured as a dental surgeon, she is constantly working to enhance her capabilities in the field. She maintains membership in several key industry organizations, including the Academy of Laser Dentistry, the Northern Virginia Dental Society, the Virginia Dental Association, the American Association for Functional Orthodontics, the American Dental Association, the American Laser Study Club, the Sleep & Airway Study Club, the American Academy of Physiological Medicine & Dentistry, the International Association of Orofacial Myology, the Foundation for Airway Health, the Breathe Institute (Ambassador), the Academy of Applied Myofunctional Sciences (founding member), and the ALF Interface Academy, Foundation for Airway Health.
Board-certified, Dr. Krystle is a proud Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (ABPD). The ABPD is the certifying board for the specialty of Pediatric Dentistry.
Pediatric dentistry is the branch of dentistry dealing with children from birth through adolescence. Pediatric dentists specialize in oral care for infants, toddlers, children, and teenagers. They are trained to handle: treatment of children under anesthesia and sedation, as well as treatment of medically compromised children and adolescents.
When not helping her young patients build happy smiles, Dr. Krystle enjoys spending time with family and friends, growing in her faith, improving her dancing skills, learning boxing moves, traveling, and cheering on Washington sports teams.
