Dr. Hardik Kundaria

DMD

Periodontist

  • Master of Dental Surgery (MDS), Sumandeep Vidyapeeth (Vadodara, India), 2012

What inspired Dr. Kundaria to become a dentist was a bad dental experience of his own. As a child, he had severe tooth pain and was taken to the dentist. Needless to say, the pain continued until one day he was seen by a different dentist and a root canal was performed and the pain disappeared. This experience inspired Dr. Kundaria to want to help others, by giving them the best dental care possible.

When he is not offering care of his patients, he likes to spend time with his wife and newborn daughter. His hobbies include traveling, hiking, and playing tennis or basketball. Currently residing in Palm Beach Gardens, Dr. Kundaria is happy to call the Sunshine State his home.

Dr. Ariana Romero Guerra

DMD

Dr. Romero was raised in a small town in Cuba, but always had big dreams. Since a very young age, she found it in her nature to make others smile. She accomplished this through friendship, kindness, and her natural ability to form strong bonds with others. However, the most significant took place when she had the privilege of enrolling in a special needs school to help the other students. She learned sign language to better help them form relationships. This brought a smile to their faces. From that point on, she associated a smile with happiness. This led her to pursue dentistry. She found a dental career ideal so that she could form, improve, and maintain smiles for others while making a positive impact on their lives.

Education

  • Graduated, University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, 2022 where she was invested into the Matthew Cryer Honor Society
  • Before studying and graduating as a dentist in the United States, she practiced dentistry in her home country Cuba as well as in Venezuela

Dr. Guerra is fluent in Spanish and English. She knew from a young age that dentistry was her calling and strives to help patients get a healthier happier smile.

Dr. Romero loves nature, the outdoors and hiking with her family. Most of her free time is spent with her son, her two sweet Australian shepherds and her husband.
