Meet Dr. Beach

Dr. Christopher Beach, your Dunedin dentist at Beach Dentistry, was born and raised in Florida, and is a sixth generation native Floridian.  As a child, he developed strong interests in science and music and dreamed of a career where he could blend these interests.  While studying chemical engineering at the University of Florida, he realized his dream of becoming a dentist.  Dr. Beach discovered that an excellent dentist needs a passion for helping people, a mastery of chemistry and materials, and an imagination for designing beautiful smiles and life-like dental restorations.  After completing his Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering with Honors, Dr. Beach earned his D.M.D. (Doctor of Dental Medicine) degree from The University of Florida, College of Dentistry.  During his time in dental school, he was awarded the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology Horace Wells Senior Student Award and the Academy of Dental Materials Senior Student Award.  While in dental school, Dr. Beach married his college sweetheart and started a family.  After graduation, he and his family moved to Palm Harbor to be closer to extended family.  Dr. Beach focuses his practice on providing excellent preventative and restorative dental care to the surrounding communities of North Pinellas county.  Aside from practicing dentistry and spending time with his family, Dr. Beach enjoys discovering new music and playing the guitar.
