Welcome to Little Roots Pediatric Dentistry

Meet Dr. Christi and Dr. Eilish: caring experts in kids' dental health

Dr. Christi Walsh, DDS, is a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist with over a decade of experience in delivering compassionate care to young patients. Her journey into dentistry began with a desire to support youth and education, sparked during her time teaching English and self-care to children in Peru. She earned her Bachelor of Science from Bowling Green State University, followed by a Doctorate of Dental Surgery from Ohio State University. Dr. Christi then completed a General Practice Residency and Pediatric Dental Residency at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, NY. Her work at a local Federally Qualified Health Center opened her eyes to how much need existed in surrounding communities, leading her to pursue pediatric dentistry with passion and purpose.

Joining her is Dr. Eilish Welsh, DDS, who also brings valuable experience and dedication to pediatric care. Together, Dr. Christi and Dr. Eilish are committed to building long-lasting, positive relationships with patients and their families, helping children feel confident and safe at every visit.
