Who would imagine that a frightening bicycle accident could inspire someone to become a dentist? However, when Dr. Paul Cannariato was 11 years old, an accident and injuries to his mouth indeed became a catalyst that inspired his future profession. The accident required much dental work, and the youth found the science and precision of dentistry fascinating. He also, unfortunately, had several experiences with dentists who did not manage the patient’s pain well. This all inspired him to become the dentist he is today, one who makes sure his patients are at ease and have a pain free experience.
He works by the motto of doing quality work and abiding by the highest ethical and professional standards. As members of the Danville community themselves, they want to be a blessing to the community. They enjoy partnering with their patients to achieve excellent oral health and a natural beautiful smile, which they have been doing for 31 years.
Dr. Cannariato is married to Karen, who also works in the office. Their two children grew up in Danville and went to San Ramon Valley High School. They now have a grandson, Dominic, and two more grandchildren on the way! Dr. and Karen just completed their first triathlon, are active in their church and serve as marriage mentors. Dr. Cannariato is also an expert photographer and displays some of his photos from his travels around the office.
Dr. Cannariato graduated from UC Davis with a BS in physiology and then from University of the Pacific Dental School, graduating with honors. He now mentors other dentists as a visiting faculty member at the Spear Institute for Advanced Dental Education.
Danville Dental Care provides many general and cosmetic dentistry services including veneers, crowns, bridges, Implant restorations, clear plastic aligners, bleaching, and sleep apnea appliances. They focus on how dental health can add to optimal health for each patient’s lifetime. “We are proud that we have been able to help so many people achieve their health goals and that we get to be a part of their lives,” says Dr. Cannariato.
