Name: April Patterson, DDS

Statement: Dr. April Patterson, DDS—known affectionately to her patients as Dr. Patty—is a leading, five-star-rated dentist based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida who serves both cosmetic and restorative dentistry patients across the South Florida region. Her state-of-the-art Miami office will launch later in 2022.

A highly-trained dentist who has studied with some of the foremost cosmetic dental specialists in the field, she founded Dr. Patty’s Dental Boutique & Spa more than a decade ago to provide patients with exceptional dental care. Dr. Patty has since grown her dental boutique into one of the most sought-after dental practices in South Florida, boasting a who’s who of notable clients.

Dr. Patty and her team redefined the dental experience by creating an exciting and transformative niche in dentistry: the dental spa. This upgraded, patient-centered, luxe experience transforms the dreaded trip to the dentist’s office into a day of pampering in a high-end boutique environment—one that has been featured everywhere from a bevy of South Florida-area publications to a nationally-televised feature on Good Morning America. Her innovative, “comfort conscious” approach to dentistry is renowned for putting even the most anxious dental patients at ease.

At the young age of 10, Dr. Patty decided that she would become a dentist after seeing the impact of dental work on a close family member. “I noticed the change in her personality and boost in confidence after her braces were removed,” says Dr. Patty. She resolved then to create the same type of positive transformations for others through the art and science of dentistry—a resolve that persists until this day.

Dr. Patty’s office offers a wide array of cosmetic dental treatments using the most cutting-edge equipment and techniques. Those treatments include veneers, cosmetic braces, IV sedation and smile makeovers, among others.

But while beauty begins with a healthy mouth at Dr. Patty’s Dental Spa & Boutique, it doesn’t end there. Her office also offers a comprehensive array of aesthetic and spa treatments that compliment the “glow-up” patients achieve with an upgraded smile. These include aesthetic treatments such as thread lifts, Juvederm, Radiesse, Botox and Dysport, as well as facials and a full brow and lash bar.

Patients can even top off their dental treatment with a massage—or have one beforehand as a way to relax before their dental procedure.

Dr. Patty earned her Bachelor’s degree in Biology at Florida State University, then completed dental school at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she also completed her residency.

In addition to Dr. Patty’s commitment to delivering each patient a concierge-style experience and unparalleled one-on-one dental care, she is also passionate about her role as an entrepreneur and working mother of two young daughters, who sometimes make special guest appearances at the office.
