Dr. Evalina Josefsson, DDS

Top3Doctors.com selected Dr. Evalina Josefsson as a top pediatric dentist in Encino because of her hospital-based training, her board certification, and her teaching role at USC. She earned her DDS with honors from the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC. After that, she completed a two-year pediatric dentistry residency at USC and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. She is a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Today she holds a faculty position in USC’s Advanced Pediatric Dentistry program and serves as a hospitalist dentist at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Few private practice dentists keep that close a tie to a major children’s hospital.

What sets Dr. Josefsson apart is how she shapes care around each child. At Encino Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics on Balboa Boulevard, her team avoids a one-size-fits-all plan. The office sees infants through teens and offers cleanings, sealants, fillings, and laser tongue-tie treatment. Children with dental anxiety or special needs get added support. She works alongside Dr. Gerald Kirshbaum, a longtime board-certified pediatric dentist in the San Fernando Valley. For these reasons, Top3Doctors.com proudly names Dr. Evalina Josefsson among the top three pediatric dentists in Encino.
