associate Dentist
Dr. Priyanka Kori, DDS
Bringing comfort, compassion, and artistry to every patient she treats
Dr. Priyanka Kori’s journey into dentistry began in Mumbai, India, where she grew up watching her mother—a dedicated endodontist—transform patients’ lives by relieving pain and restoring smiles. Witnessing those moments of gratitude inspired Dr. Kori to follow in her footsteps and devote her career to making that same meaningful impact.
She earned her Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 2007 before moving to the United States to deepen her understanding of community health, completing a Master’s in Public Health from Boston University in 2010. To practice in the U.S., she later graduated from the University of Southern California’s Advanced Standing Program for International Dentists, one of the nation’s most respected pathways for global clinicians.
With experience rooted both in India and the U.S., Dr. Kori brings a compassionate, culturally aware, patient-centered approach to dentistry. Her goal is simple: help patients feel safe, cared for, and confident in their smiles.
