Tess Gladstone, DDS
Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist
Dr. Tess is an East Coast native who spent most of her childhood in sunny Florida. She attended the University of Florida (Go Gators!) and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in science with honors. She attended the prestigious New York University College of Dentistry in Manhattan and completed a 1-year general practice residency at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center in Queens, prior to starting her pediatric specialty training. Dr. Tess received her certificate of advanced graduate study in pediatric dentistry from the Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine. While in residency she had the opportunity to travel to the town of Buena Vista, Nicaragua to provide much-needed dental care as part of the Rio San Juan Relief organization.
Outside the office, Dr. Tess and her husband Adam stay happily busy with their daughter, Nora, born in August of 2019, and their dogs Mack and Beau. They love spending time outdoors hiking, running, and exploring new places. In addition to outdoor activities, both Dr. Tess and her husband are avid Crossfitters. Dr. Tess has even competed in two Olympic weightlifting competitions!
After making the big move across the country from Boston, Dr. Tess loves being a part of the Acorn Dentistry for Kids family and looks forward to providing the best possible care to your family.
