Meet Your Knightdale Pediatric Dentist

Picture

Dr. Leslie Yuan Gazdeck, DDS, MSD

Dr. Leslie Yuan Gazdeck (Dr. Gazdeck) was raised in North Carolina ever since she was 2. She graduated from Enloe High School in Raleigh and already had an inkling she wanted to be an orthodontist after getting her braces in high school...she went to college at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Gazdeck is a proud alum of UNC School of Dentistry. 

Dr. Gazdeck then completed a General Practice Residency at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA treating medically complex patients. It was during that year that she realized how much she loved pediatric dentistry during a rotation and so she decided to further train for an extra 2 years to receive her Masters in Sciences in Dentistry at the University of Washington. She worked in NYC for a year as her husband completed a fellowship and now she's back in North Carolina. 

She is a Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist, which means she went through rigorous written and oral examination in order to achieve this status.

Dr. Gazdeck is married to her husband Dr. Robert K. Gazdeck who is a maxillofacial prosthodontist (they met in dental school!) and they have 2 boys, Nate (3) and Matt (1).  As you can tell by the photo below, the boys are complete opposites! :) They attend Summit Church. She loves frequenting the gym and traveling (she's been to all 7 continents)!
