Dr. David Pascia
Hello, and welcome to our website! I’m Dr. David Pascia, but most of my patients call me Dr. Dave.
I was born and raised in our very own Saint Petersburg. I attended Northside Christian High School and went to on to earn my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama. After graduating from Samford, I moved back to Florida and completed my Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from the University of Florida College of Dentistry in 2002. Go Gators!
I believe that we never stop growing and learning in life. As a result, I regularly attend post-graduate courses in all aspects of dentistry, including those in Cosmetic Dentistry and Restorative Dentistry. I am an active member of the America Dental Association, West Coast Dental Association, Florida Dental Association, and Pinellas County Dental Association. I chose dentistry as a profession because I enjoy the challenge of serving those that are in need. My Caring and Compassionate personality helps me excel in this area. The skills and education that I have received allow me to help patients dentally in a calm, caring environment.
I enjoy donating my time and dental abilities in a variety of ways, including my involvement with the
Pinellas County “Give Kids a Smile” program. I have also been able to serve those with dental needs through the statewide Missions of Mercy event help in Tampa. Most recently, I had the opportunity to donate dental services to Project Dental Care in Orlando, treating children in Florida’s foster care system as well as the time spent at the Saint Petersburg Free Clinic.
Outside of Dentistry, I enjoy a variety of hobbies and extracurricular activities. I truly enjoy pretty much anything that involves the outdoors and being on or near the water appeals to me including: boating, fishing, free diving, hunting and daily exercise. My family and I attend Northside Baptist Church here in St. Pete. Cooking is also another one of my passions that I enjoy daily and whenever time allows.
I am happily married to my wife Nikki, and have two sons, Dylan and Cooper. I also have a lovable Labrador, Keira.
I am optimistic that I will be able to meet all your dental needs with a caring, sincere spirit.
Thank you, and Welcome!
Dr. Dave

I started working at Pascia Dentistry in 2010. I originally graduated from the University of South Florida in 2005 with a Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Science. After working in the dental field, I fell in love with the idea of becoming a dental hygienist. I went back to school and graduated from South Florida Community College in 2010 with an Associates in Applied Science in Dental Hygiene in which I became a hygienist at Pascia Dentistry. I truly enjoy all of my patients and I am very enthusiastic about my profession. I am happily married and blessed with a beautiful daughter, Kristalyn.

I have been a dental receptionist at Pascia Dentistry since 2007. I enjoy working with all of my caring team members to make every patient’s dental appointment an enjoyable experience. I love working for Pascia Dentistry and appreciate the doctors, my co-workers, and all of our great patients. As I know most people do not enjoy going to the dentist, I enjoy being able to make patients feel comfortable while here for their appointments and look forward to coming to our office.
