Dr. Berisha was raised in the Bronx, NY, after immigrating with his family at a young age. He earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from NYU College of Dentistry and went on to complete advanced training through a General Practice Residency at North Shore University Hospital.
In the early 2020s, Dr. Berisha and his family relocated to Fairfield County to be closer to loved ones and embrace a more community-focused lifestyle. That move inspired his commitment to serving local families—making Monroe Smiles a natural home for his values and vision.
Known for his warm demeanor and attention to detail, Dr. Berisha believes that trust is built through empathy, communication, and clinical excellence. His goal is to create a calm, comfortable experience for every patient and to ensure each visit feels personal, informative, and empowering.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Berisha enjoys staying active at the gym and spending time with his two Shih Tzus—Cannoli and Tortellini—who keep him on his toes.
He looks forward to meeting you and supporting your long-term oral health journey.
Dr. Kwon practices dentistry with a simple belief: Great dentistry should not need to be redone.
Over the years, he saw a pattern—patients coming in after years of patchwork dentistry, frustrated, confused, and unsure who to trust. The issue was rarely a single tooth; it was a lack of clarity in how the entire system was evaluated and treated. That realization led to the development of the Built to Last Protocol—a doctor-guided approach that restores the mouth to a stable, functional baseline before treatment begins.
Rather than fixing teeth one at a time, Dr. Kwon evaluates how everything works together: your bite, jaw joints, muscles, bone, gums, and existing dental work. This ensures care is thoughtful, conservative, and designed to hold up over time. This approach has made him a trusted resource for patients seeking more than routine care, especially those considering full-mouth rehabilitation or wanting a clear, long-term solution done right the first time.
Clinically, Dr. Kwon focuses on:
He holds a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Boston University and has advanced training in implant placement, bone grafting, PRF/CGF healing protocols, and full-arch therapy. This extensive background allows him to bridge function and aesthetics with precision and intention.
But what patients often remember most isn’t the technical side—it’s how he makes things feel. Dr. Kwon is known for taking the time to listen, explaining complex situations in a way that makes sense, and guiding patients without pressure. His goal is to replace uncertainty with clarity, reflecting a practice philosophy that is doctor-guided, relationship-based, and built on trust that lasts for generations.
Outside the office, Dr. Kwon enjoys time with his wife and son, serves in his church community, mentors young dentists, and continues to study and teach advancements in comprehensive and digital dentistry.
