Born in Chicago, Dr. Burke received his doctorate of dental medicine from the University of Florida college of dentistry where he fell in love with the Florida Gators and the east coast Florida way of life.
Committed to his craft, Dr. Burke invests much of his free time completing the most impactful dental education courses. He feels that is the best way to provide the right treatment options for our patients. His enthusiasm for continuing education earned him his nickname — “Dental Dave.”
Dr. Burke’s enthusiasm for continuing education inspired him to achieve Fellowship status from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and an associate member of the American Society of Implant and Reconstructive Dentistry.
Dr. Burke has always been driven and committed to providing pain-free, quality dentistry that transforms lives, one smile at a time. He has completed extensive specialized training in a wide-range of comprehensive dental services. Some of which include:
Dr. Burke loves to spend time with his beautiful wife, Hali and wrestling with his son, Leo and dog, Kona. When he’s not practicing dentistry, he enjoys fishing, watching football, and most importantly, making people feel good through laughter and smiles.
What I love most about dentistry is the chance to help others gain confidence through achieving a beautiful and healthy smile. I cherish the long lasting friendships I make along the way. I am proud to be part of a team that is dedicated to giving their very best to everyone they encounter. Seeing our patients leave our office with a smile and a warm feeling about their experience motivates me to always strive for excellence. Outside the office, I enjoy planning family events and vacations with my husband. We love spending time by the ocean and tackling home projects. There is always something to do at home and with family.
I was introduced to dentistry at a very young age as my mom was an office manager for most of my life. Growing up, I have many memories of summer days helping at her office. I believed that helped me to pursue my own career in the dental field. Having various roles throughout the years has helped me appreciate all the different aspects of dentistry and patient care. I love welcoming patients with a smile and positive attitude. I love working for an office that prioritizes patient comfortability and modern technology. Most importantly, I believe in Dr. Burke and the work our team members put forth in providing ethical and exceptional dentistry. When I am out of the office, you can find me with my Husband and young daughter at the beach, hanging by the pool, or getting together with family and friends.
I love connecting with patients in a comfortable environment with modern dentistry. My goal is to assure every patient has an ultimate dental experience! When I’m not hanging out with my awesome staff my fiancé and I love to plan weekend trips on Florida’s coast! One of our favorites is Cape Canaveral to watch rocket launches!
I love helping my patients learn and achieve their oral health goals while doing it in a calm and relaxing environment. Its my overall goal to make sure that every patient that sits in my chair walks out with a big smile on their face while also feeling fresh! Outside of dentistry, I enjoy exploring Florida’s cute coffee shops, thrifting, and going to the beach with my husband.
My interest in dentistry began at a young age when I wasn’t happy with the way my teeth looked and I wanted to find ways to make them better. Now it’s my goal to make everyone who sits in my chair feel more confident about their unique smile by supplying them with the knowledge and tools to better their overall health. When I’m not doing dentistry I’m reading, traveling, trying new foods and spending time with my husband and fur babies Nox our pup and Quinn our cat.
I grew up in Jensen Beach and earned my Dental Hygiene degree from Indian River State College. Currently I’m a member of the IRSC Dental Advisory Board and enjoy volunteering at my Alma Mater. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from St. Petersburg College and my Masters degree from the University of Tennessee in 2017. I always strive to make my patients comfortable and ensure that they have an enjoyable dental visit! I’m very passionate about helping people understand the importance of their oral health. My goal is to keep our patients happy and healthy while educating them on how to keep their teeth for a lifetime. I take great pride in being a GENTLE hygienist. Outside of dentistry, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, offshore fishing, and I love to travel.
I love making patients feel comfortable and making the dental experience a pleasurable one. In my free time, I like to go on sushi dates with my daughter and watch Bridgerton on Netflix.
I love Dentistry because I love helping & making people feel safe and better about their smile. I tell everyone they have beautiful teeth and just need some TLC-tender loving and care. In my downtime I love hanging out with my best friends! I love exercising, working on my health, painting, and face-timing with my family because nothing is more important than family and surrounding myself with love!
