Anna M. Berik, D.M.D
Dr. Anna Berik founded Bubble Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics with a deeply personal mission: to create a dental office where every child feels safe, welcome, and cared for. As the parent of a daughter with autism, Dr. Berik experienced firsthand how challenging dental visits can be for children on the spectrum and their families. She envisioned a practice that not only understands these unique needs but also makes dentistry a positive, joyful experience for all children.
Through Bubble, Dr. Berik set out to change the way kids and parents think about dental visits. By combining a fun, marine-themed environment with compassionate specialists and advanced technology, Bubble provides exceptional care for both neurodiverse and neurotypical children while giving parents peace of mind.
In addition to leading Bubble, Dr. Berik is widely recognized as one of Boston’s premier cosmetic dentists and the founder of Newton Dental Associates. She is a nationally respected authority on Invisalign®, a board member of the American Academy of Clear Aligners, and creator of the Berik Acceleration Method™ (BAM™), teaching dentists across North America her accelerated treatment approach.
Her leadership extends beyond dentistry. Dr. Berik was honored as an Inc. Magazine Female Founder Award recipient in 2024 and named among Boston Magazine’s Top 150 Most Influential Bostonians in 2025. These recognitions highlight both her entrepreneurial vision and her impact on the Boston community.
With Bubble, Dr. Berik brings her professional expertise and personal passion together to ensure that every child leaves the dentist not just healthier, but happier.
