Dr Donald T. Bond

Here at White Clay Dental, Dr. Bond has a true passion for practicing family dentistry. From preschool-aged children to grown adults, his goal is to help every patient achieve healthy teeth for a lifetime in the most conservative manner possible. He also greatly enjoys improving the appearance of smiles with the latest cosmetic techniques and materials, resulting in a big boost of self-confidence for people in need. Dr. Bond began his college studies at Bucknell University as an engineering major, but he also had a keen interest in medicine and architectural design. At that time, his older brother was in dental school. During a visit with him at Georgetown University, he saw that dentistry combined qualities from each of those disciplines very well. At the beginning of his sophomore year back at Bucknell, he decided to change his major to chemistry with an emphasis on pre-dental studies. Today, Dr. Bond is still thrilled to have been able to combine his interests into such an amazing career. However, the most satisfying part of practicing dentistry by far has been the relationships he’s made with so many wonderful Newark-area families. Dr. Bond achieved his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry. He was a Cum Laude graduate and inducted into the dental honor society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon. Following graduation, he furthered his training by completing a residency program in general dentistry at Christiana Care Hospital. He also regularly attends continuing education courses on a yearly basis in order to stay current with the latest advancements in oral healthcare. Dr. Bond is currently a member of the Medical-Dental Staff at Christiana Care, where he volunteers his time teaching and mentoring current dental residents. He is also a consultant and referral dentist for the University of Delaware Health Service.
