Dr. David RosenDr. David Rosen

Welcome to our pediatric dental family! Dr. David Rosen, a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist, brings over a decade of expertise and warmth to our practice in Brandon.

A true Florida native, Dr. Rosen’s journey into the world of dentistry began in high school, where he gained hands-on experience in an orthodontist’s office in his hometown of Palm Beach Gardens. This early exposure ignited a spark for dentistry that would shape his career.

Continuing his education at Tulane University with a major in Neuroscience, Dr. Rosen graduated with honors and earned the distinguished distinction of Phi Beta Kappa.

Returning to his roots in Florida, Dr. Rosen attended the University of Florida for dental school, where he graduated at the top of his class. Go Gators! During dental school, Dr. Rosen volunteered to participate in dental mission trips to the Dominican Republic. It was during this time that he discovered his true calling: treating children.

Dedicated to honing his skills and knowledge, Dr. Rosen completed a two-year pediatric residency at the University of Florida. At the University of Florida, he focused his research on craniofacial disorders, with a focus on cleft lip and palate. He then went beyond residency to complete his board certification in pediatric dentistry, certifying him as Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.

Beyond the clinic, Dr. Rosen finds joy in photography, cooking various cuisines, traveling, and most importantly, his family. Alongside his wife, Lorielle, and their two children, Lane and Lyla, they enjoy outdoor activities and cherish time spent with family and friends.
