Lynda Dean-Duru, DDS

Dr. Lynda Dean-Duru over the last twenty years has built one of the most progressive pediatric dental practices in Northern Virginia. Based in Ashburn, her Ashburn Children’s Dentistry practice serves thousands of families and stays on the cutting edge of Integrative wholistic airway-focused preventative dentistry.

For Dr. Dean-Duru, the pathway to dentistry stemmed from her childhood experience with a dentist in her native Nigeria. As the eldest of nine children (including seven brothers), she witnessed a total transformation in the health of one of her little brothers after his aches and pains were totally resolved under the care of a well-trained dentist. She determined, as a result of that experience, to extend that kind of care to others as her life’s calling.
