Years of Experience: I have been practicing dentistry for 7 years.
My training was completed at Indiana University (DDS) and the University of Michigan (MS Pediatric Dentistry).
What Sets You Apart? My brother Kevin and I started this practice because we believe in the potential of young children and their parents. We feel blessed to be able to be a small part of helping babies and their parents grow into happy, healthy families.
Proudest Accomplishments: Our proudest accomplishment is that we’ve built a practice that uses compassion and understanding to teach children to be courageous in an intimidating situation, and to take responsibility for their own health and well-being.
Greatest Contribution to the Community: Our success here won’t be measured until 10 or 20 years from now, when the children we care for are grown. If we can look out and see a group of young men and women who are healthy, happy, selfless members of society, that will be our greatest contribution to the community.

We are so lucky to have found Dr. Yamada's office. We had struggled to find a Pediatric dentist for our 3 children, having had them seen by 2 other dentists before. We never knew that visiting the dentist could be such an enjoyable experience. His staff greets us by name as we walk-in the door, and our children even give him and his brother hugs as we leave! Too bad they don't see adults!!
I love Dr. Yamada or Uncle Chris and Uncle Kevin! My children are 1 & 3 and both never cry at part of the dental visit. Too bad Dr. Chris isn't a family dentist!
