Our History
Our legacy began in the 1960s when Dr. Guy started practicing dentistry in Marrero. In 1965, he founded Barataria Dental, setting the standard for professional, patient-focused care. Today, we continue to build on that legacy with our family-friendly practice. Our team is proud to be a second-generation practice, with Dr. Maria Burmaster and Dr. Valerie Hemphill leading the way.
