Babylon Dental Care Dentists
Dr. John E. Baker Jr., DDS
Dr.
Baker is a native of Long Island. He grew up in Huntington and
graduated from St. Joseph’s College in Patchogue. Dr. Baker earned
his dental and orthodontic degrees at Columbia University School
of Dental and Oral Surgery. Upon graduation, Dr. Baker was recognized
as being the best clinical dentist in his class and was awarded
the Operative Award for Excellence. He was given the honor of
the Long Island Odontology Award for being the top graduate from
Long Island. After receiving the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honors
Award, Dr. Baker was asked to teach both general dentistry and
orthodontics at Columbia University.
While studying at Columbia,
Dr. Baker met his wife Silvia. They have four beautiful children,
two girls and two boys, two dogs, a cat, and tropical fish. They
love going on family vacations, particularly fishing, and boating.
Dr. Baker has been practicing on Long Island for over 20 years
and continues to believe in the same principles that earned him
the prestigious awards. “Excellence is what we must strive for
and attain in every aspect of our lives. Just as I would strive
for perfection in all that I do for my children and family, I
do for all of my patients.” Dr. Baker believes in bringing the
latest technology and innovations available in the practice of
orthodontics to his patients, in order to make the treatment
more comfortable and precise.
Dr. Baker enjoys the interactions with
the children and parents alike. It is an honor he says, when
the parents bring the younger siblings in of those he has treated.
He believes it is an even higher honor when they refer their
friends or sometimes even themselves, for orthodontic care after
seeing the transformation of their child’s bite and smile. Dr.
Baker’s goal is to provide impeccable orthodontic care to enhance
a patient’s health, appearance, and confidence, while maintaining
a joyful and fun office atmosphere.
