Dr. Patricia Cruz-Bautista
Known to my patients as Doc Trish, I am a Pediatric and Special Needs Dentist committed to creating calm, compassionate, and evidence-based dental experiences for every patient.
A proud University of the Philippines Manila alumna, I furthered my training through the Advanced Education in Pediatric Dentistry (AEPD) program at the Pediatric Dentistry Center Philippines, where I gained specialized expertise in managing children and individuals with special needs.
I currently lead my own practice, Tooth Booth Dental Center, and also provide on-call and hospital-based dental services, ensuring safe, patient-centered care beyond the clinic setting.
My Mission
To provide compassionate, evidence-based pediatric and special needs dental care that empowers families and builds trust—one calm, positive visit at a time.
I aim to create safe spaces where every child feels seen, every parent feels heard, and every smile tells a story of care, not fear.
My Vision
To redefine pediatric dentistry by making gentle, inclusive, and patient-centered care the standard.
Through education, empathy, and innovation, I envision a generation of children who grow up unafraid of the dentist—and proud of their healthy, confident smiles.
