About Dr. Gloria Patino, DMD & The Attentive Dentist, LLC

 

The story of The Attentive Dentist, LLC began in Wharton, NJ, in November 2007 when Dr. Gloria Patino, DMD, opened her doors with a simple mission: to treat patients like extended family.

Dr. Patino brings a unique background to her practice. After earning a Chemical Biology degree from Stevens Institute of Technology, she completed her Doctor of Dental Medicine at UMDNJ. She is also an artist specializing in 3D sculpting. This rare blend of advanced science and artistic precision allows her to design crowns, veneers, and cosmetic enhancements that are both structurally sound and naturally beautiful.

True to the practice's name, Dr. Patino focuses heavily on easing anxiety for self-proclaimed "dental cowards." Backed by an exceptional 4.9 out of 5-star rating on Healthgrades, her patient-first approach is defined by:

• Attentive Care: Appointments are never rushed, and treatment options are always explained clearly.

• Modern Technology: Utilizing advanced clinical tools to ensure procedures are gentle and virtually painless.

• Artistic Precision: Crafting functional, gorgeous smiles tailored to each unique face.

When she isn't transforming smiles at our 400 South Main Street office, Dr. Patino lives in New Jersey with her college sweetheart and their two children. We invite you to experience dental care designed entirely around you!​
