General Dentist
Dr. Fang Xia, DMD
Welcome! I’m Dr. Xia, and for over a decade, it has been my privilege to serve as a trusted dentist in the Baltimore-Washington community. My philosophy is simple: to treat every patient with the same kindness, detailed care, and clear communication that I would want for my own family. I believe in building relationships that last a lifetime.
A proud Howard County resident for nearly 15 years, I chose to establish my practice here because this vibrant community is my home. I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese and am dedicated to making all patients feel understood and cared for.
My Journey to Your Care
My path to becoming your dentist is built on a global foundation of excellence and a deep commitment to lifelong learning. I began my career at the prestigious West China University of Medical Sciences, School of Dentistry, where I earned my doctorate and a Master’s in Periodontics. After four years of practice in a university hospital, I brought my skills to the United States.
To master the standards and techniques of American dentistry, I earned my Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Boston University School of Dental Medicine. This dual-degree training allows me to provide care that is both comprehensive and precise. I have since dedicated myself to advanced continuing education in Implant Dentistry, Endodontics, and Cosmetic Dentistry to ensure my patients have access to the latest, most effective treatments.
My Life in Our Community
I live in Howard County with my husband and our two daughters. My life outside the office is fueled by movement and connection. You can often find me finding my rhythm with my local Chinese dance group or finding my pace with my community running club. These activities are more than hobbies—they teach me discipline, bring me joy, and reinforce the positive energy I strive to bring to our practice every day.
I look forward to welcoming you and your family, and becoming your partner in achieving a healthy, confident smile.
