Dr Manuel Botana,

Dr. Manuel Botana is a compassionate experienced dental practitioner that has over 30 years’ experience. Dr. Botana completed dental school in Dominican Republic over 30 years ago. He then moved his family to the states and completed dental school at New York University (NYU). After earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree (DDS) he worked as a resident in Wyckoff Heights Medical Center where he completed one year of community health and one year of general dentistry. In his time there he became chief resident and taught other young dental professionals. This really expanded his knowledge in the dentistry field. Prior to moving to Rochester, he owned a successful practice in Manhattan, N.Y where his focus was on cosmetic dentistry. Over 20 years ago he moved his family to Rochester, NY and opened his second practice where he shifted from solely doing cosmetic dentistry to diving into working with the Rochester community and tailoring his years of training and experience to serve the underserved. His love of traveling and helping others has taken him on several dental mission trips to Colombia, Ethiopia, and Brazil where he had the wonderful opportunity to help communities in need. His joy of helping others in his community permeates in every aspect of his life. When he is not practicing dentistry Dr. Botana loves to run, and really enjoys cooking and hosting at his home for his loved ones.
