Dr. Paulina Kanakos

Dr. Paulina Kanakos attended George Washington University for her undergraduate studies and then continued on to receive her dental degree at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. Dr. Paulina completed her residency at the University of Connecticut for her specialty in Pediatric Dentistry. 

She grew up with three uncles who are Pediatricians and was always inspired by their lifelong commitment to treating children. She followed in their footsteps, deciding to become a Pediatric Dentist in NYC. She loves seeing patients every day and developed her own system for making kids excited to take a trip to the dentist! 

Dr. Kanakos is Greek-American and remains deeply connected to her Greek culture, family, and church community. She was also strongly influenced by her YiaYia and Pappou (grandmother and grandfather) who emigrated from Greece in search of a better life for their families. They always preached hard work, honesty, education, integrity, respect, and teamwork. She emulates these qualities with everyone she encounters and is an invaluable asset to Tribeca Dental Studio!
