Vince Labinpuno, DDS
Dr. Vince’s journey has taken him all over the map—he grew up as a Navy brat, moving frequently before settling in Oxnard, California, where he graduated from Channel Islands High School. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Physiology and Developmental Biology with a minor in Business Management from Brigham Young University, then went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. He completed his pediatric residency at Hennepin Healthcare in Minnesota, where he discovered just how much he loved helping kids feel safe, seen, and empowered in the dental chair.
After finishing residency, Dr. Vince was drawn to the Pacific Northwest and excited to return to the West Coast. He found the perfect fit at Acorn Dentistry for Kids—he connected with the mission to serve all children, regardless of insurance, and appreciated the strong mentorship and supportive team environment.
Dr. Vince enjoys helping kids work through fear and uncertainty, building their confidence and trust along the way. He finds joy in the honest, unpredictable, and often hilarious moments that come with working in pediatrics—and loves knowing he’s helping lay the foundation for healthy smiles that last a lifetime.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Vince is a music enthusiast who collects CDs and vinyl records. He also enjoys hiking, trying new recipes, checking out restaurants, and exploring new places through solo travel.
