Dr. Alissa M. Roman, DDS

Dr. Alissa Roman, Doctor of Dental Surgery

Dr. Alissa Roman brings fresh perspective and compassionate care to Roman Dental Arts while honoring the practice’s longstanding tradition of patient-centered dentistry. Her face may be familiar to longtime patients, as she spent much of her childhood at the practice while her parents provided dental care to the community.

Education and Background

Dr. Alissa graduated from the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine after completing her undergraduate education at Fordham University with a dual major in Biology and Anthropology. She also holds a Master’s degree in Biology from Montclair State University in New Jersey. This strong educational foundation prepared her for a career dedicated to both clinical excellence and understanding the human aspects of dental care.

During her training, Dr. Alissa provided outreach dental care to underserved populations in the Allegheny Mountain region of the United States and through the Indian Health Service. These experiences deepened her understanding of compassionate care and reinforced her commitment to making quality dentistry accessible.

Philosophy of Care

Dr. Alissa embodies our practice’s philosophy of putting patients first. Growing up in the practice, she learned the value of providing compassionate care by watching her parents treat each patient as an individual with unique needs and concerns. After working as a patient coordinator and dental assistant, she understands every aspect of the patient experience. This background allows her to approach treatment with both clinical skill and genuine empathy for what patients are feeling.

Services and Approach

Dr. Alissa provides comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages, with particular interest in cosmetic procedures, laser dentistry, and modern orthodontic solutions. Her gentle chairside manner and clear communication style help patients feel comfortable and informed throughout their treatment journey.
