Roland Park Orthodontics in Baltimore, MD.

Dr. Dina Stappert is a Board Certified Orthodontist, mom, published author, wife, University of Maryland clinical professor, abstract artist, tooth fairy, and accidental lacrosse superfan. Proud owner of “Twinky’ – Baltimore’s jolliest car.

Dr. Stappert has a tiny version of a life outside of orthodontics. Family is her true life and her happiness. She lives in Baltimore County with her sweetheart husband and children. When she is not working on creating beautiful smiles and teaching awesome dental students and orthodontic residents at the University of Maryland, you can find her on the pitch cheering for her children’s lacrosse and soccer teams.

Since childhood she has had an affinity for all things creative. Dr. Stappert is an “optimistic” (self-taught) abstract artist and has a modern and minimalist style of painting that cannot be defined, but rather felt. She has created her art style through her love for composition, color and the philosophy that through life’s imperfections, there is always a need for beauty, particularly in chaos. She escapes it all by retreating to her petit art studio, which stocks oodles of stretched canvas and perfectly-lined-up-color-coordinated-paint… just in case she feels optimistic.

“Being an orthodontist constantly has a positive impact on peoples’ lives.”
