Maplewood Dental Associates has welcomed a new dentist to the team.

Dr. Katelyn Vincent started working with patients in September. She is the fourth dentist in the Rehoboth Beach practice, joining Dr. Steve Wright, Dr. Daniel Luckenbaugh, and Dr. Katie Townsend. 

Vincent is a Sussex County native. She grew up in Dewey Beach before attending High Point University in North Carolina and then dental school at Midwestern University in Arizona. Her general practice residency was in Syracuse, NY. 

The new doctor is excited to have an opportunity to start in the community she holds dear.  

“I’ve been all over the country, but I always knew I wanted to come back to the beach,” Vincent said. “I love everything that the beach life offers. It’s more laid back, and people are friendly here.”

With the increase in population, she said, there’s a need for medical providers. “I’m glad that I can be a part of that,” she said.

Vincent joins a tight-knit community at Maplewood Dental, with doctors who go by their first names and embrace the small-town feel. “They’re very state-of-the-art with the newest technology here,” she said. “Everyone is so helpful, and there’s a really good camaraderie. I couldn’t have asked for a better situation to start out in.”

The desire to work in dentistry started early. Vincent said she loved going to the orthodontist as a child, but she wanted to get into general dentistry for the variety in the day-to-day activities.

Her main goal in her profession is to help others. “Firstly,” she said, “dentistry gets patients out of pain. Also, a lot of people don’t like the look of their teeth, so we can work to give back the confidence so that they’re happy with their smile. Eyes and teeth are the first thing that people notice, so helping patients with that is important to me.”
