Dr. Marsha A. Gordon

Through Dr. Marsha Gordon’s dental training at the Medical College of Virginia’s School of Dentistry, she realized the joy she could bring her young patients after performing a routine cleaning and presenting them a prize for their efforts (sugar free, of course). As a result, Dr. Gordon has spent her entire career ensuring that every child receives specialized individual attention that ensures fundamental dental health. Her dedication to patient care has not gone unnoticed both locally and nationally as “Lehigh Valley’s Select Dentist” and “TopDentist.” Dr. Gordon, furthermore, continues to hold the position of Diplomat of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry as well as a long-standing member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. In addition, Dr. Gordon is also the chairman of Pediatric Dentistry at Lehigh Valley Hospital Network. Beyond her private practice experience, Dr. Gordon currently aids on numerous volunteer initiatives including: the Autism Walk & dental education in local area schools. Dr. Gordon was also recently offered two prestigious grants: (1) involves a collaboration with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry with the Head Start of the Lehigh Valley; and (2) partners with the State of Pennsylvania Medical and Dental Community with a program entitled, Healthy Teeth/Healthy Children. Dr. Gordon received her Bachelor’s degree from Goucher College, her Doctorate of Dental Sciences and her certification in Pediatric Dentistry from the Medical College of Virginia. Along with her husband, David, Dr. Gordon remains a long-time resident of Allentown with three grown children: Michael, Steven, and Harris (all of whom regularly brush their teeth twice a day after years of successful encouragement from their mother).

Getting kids to brush their teeth consistently can be a challenge. A tried-and-true method for encouraging kids to brush is the classic sticker chart. Kids love stickers, and they love being rewarded. It also creates a routine and something that you’re paying attention to every night as well!

Did you know that when expecting moms take great care of their teeth and gums, it can support a healthier pregnancy? Brushing and keeping up with oral hygiene helps reduce harmful bacteria in the mouth. This is important because bacteria from the gums can enter the bloodstream and affect the body in different ways. Healthy habits like brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are a wonderful way to care for both mom and baby during pregnancy!

One of the most common causes of early decay in children is "baby bottle decay." This usually comes from children having frequent access to liquids other than water outside feeding times, and even diluted juice can give cavity-causing bacteria everything they need to grow. Water is best!
