Our History
Vallera Family & Cosmetic Dentistry would like to welcome patients and their families to explore the incredible history that resides within the practice.
Dr. Paul Welch originally founded the practice, once called Paul X Welch DDS, in 1964. Dr. Welch, now 81, is the youngest of three generations of dentists in his family.
The Welch tradition began with his father, Francis and two uncles, Michael and Edward, when they opened their practice in downtown Springfield in 1910.
Dr. Welch graduated from American International College, Baltimore College of Dental Surgery and the University of Maryland.
I first visited Dr. Vallera’s practice many years ago, having significant dental work ahead and wanting to find someone I trusted. Dr. Vallera not only did a great job with my teeth, but she and the entire staff made it a really great experience – very welcoming and comfortable. Twenty years later, I am still with the practice along with my husband and children, my parents, as well as my siblings and their families. The experience for all of us continues to be positive!
