Dr. Krisha Misa
DDS • Pediatric DentistryDr. Krisha Misa, DDS is a board-certified pediatric dentist who combines premium, high-quality dentistry with a calm, reassuring approach that helps kids feel safe and helps parents feel confident. She delivers thoughtful dentistry with warmth, patience, and a steady focus on doing what's best for each child long-term. Raised in Washington, Dr. Misa is proud to have built her education close to home – earning her Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from the University of Washington. She then pursued advanced specialty training in pediatric dentistry at the University of Illinois, where she also completed a Master's degree, deepening both her clinical expertise and her commitment to evidence-based, child-centered care. A core focus of Dr. Misa's care is supporting children with dental anxiety. She understands that fear can show up as tears, silence, resistance, or "wiggles," and she never treats those moments like misbehavior. Instead, she uses a child-centered, trust-building approach – meeting kids where they are, moving at a pace that feels safe, and explaining what's happening in a way that makes sense to both children and parents. Her goal is not just to finish an appointment; it's to help children leave feeling proud, capable, and more comfortable the next time. Outside the office, you'll usually find her hunting down a great new restaurant with her husband (she's serious about a good noodle spot), chasing fresh powder on a snowboard when the season hits, or capturing everyday moments through photography.
