Dr. Sukrita B. Matta, DDS, MPH
Overview
Dr. Matta believes dentistry is more than just teeth—it’s about people, stories, and transformation. Her journey into dentistry was guided by a deep appreciation for the balance between science and creativity. “Dentistry allows me to be an artist, a teacher, and a healer all in one,” she says, a philosophy that shines through in every patient interaction.
A Passion Born From Purpose
Before becoming a dentist, Dr. Matta began her career in healthcare as a dental hygienist, where she developed a strong foundation in preventive care and a belief that “prevention is always better than cure.” Her desire to serve patients with compassion and integrity led her to pursue her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree at the University at Buffalo in New York, followed by a General Practice Residency at Albany Stratton VA Medical Center. She also holds a Master’s in Public Health from NYU, underscoring her commitment to the connection between oral health and overall well-being.
Her Philosophy in One Sentence
“Treat people the way you want to be treated—with honesty, grace, and a smile.”
Dr. Matta believes that it’s never too late to take the first step toward a healthier smile, and she’s honored to walk that journey with you.
A Practice Built on Integrity and Trust
For Dr. Matta, opening her own practice meant creating a space where honesty, empathy, and respect guide every decision. Patients are treated like family—with sincerity and without judgment. Whether you’re 6 months or 99 years old, she and her team are here to meet you where you are and support you on your path to better oral health.
Where High-Tech Meets High-Touch
Dr. Matta brings cutting-edge technology and a human-centered approach together in perfect harmony. Her office is equipped with intraoral scanners, digital X-rays, soft-tissue lasers, and other modern tools to ensure maximum comfort and precision. She also offers Invisalign®, laser-assisted periodontal treatment, in-office whitening, and Icon® resin infiltration—always with a focus on restoring both form and function.
Educator at Heart
One of the most rewarding parts of Dr. Matta’s work is empowering patients with knowledge. Whether she’s walking a nervous patient through their first procedure or explaining the link between oral health and overall health, her goal is to ensure everyone leaves feeling informed and confident in their care.
Outside the Office
A true creative at heart, Dr. Matta enjoys working on mixed media art, embroidery, and reading in her downtime. You’ll also find her on long walks or listening to her favorite music—always finding beauty in the small things, just like she does in dentistry.
