Meet Dr. Amy Yonemitsu

Dr. Amy Yonemitsu is a California native, born and raised in Salinas. She obtained her bachelor of science from UC Davis and went on to achieve a doctorate of dental surgery from the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco.

Through her training and experience in complex care, Dr. Amy developed her skills in advanced restorative, cosmetic and implant dentistry and takes special care with treating dental phobic and anxious patients. In addition, she is well-versed in complex prosthodontics, which is a fascinating area of dentistry that focuses exclusively on designing, fabricating and fitting extremely natural-looking artificial teeth.

She values spending time with patients to understand their individual expectations, needs, and to address personalized goals in and beyond the dental chair.  Her strong belief in patient education allows her to focus on prevention and providing comprehensive, quality patient care. 

In addition to remaining committed to providing our patients with the extraordinary level of care they’ve come to expect from Cosmetic Dentistry Associates, Dr. Amy also hones her skills and expands her expertise by attending seminars and conferences devoted to technological advancements in the industry, aesthetic dentistry and general dental care. She’s currently taking classes to expand her knowledge in treating patients with sleep apnea.

Aside from her enthusiasm for teeth, Dr. Amy loves spending time with family and friends eating new types of foods and playing board games. Her favorite show is the office.
