About Us
Our Practice

Meet the Doctor
Dr. Evan Silsby, DDS
Dr. Evan Silsby acquired the practice in June 2016. He is a Native of Gasport N.Y. Dr. Evan received his Bachelor’s of Science from SUNY Geneseo and went to earn his Doctorate of Dental Surgery degree from the University at Buffalo. Following graduation Dr. Silsby and his wife, Heidi, moved to North Carolina for a General Dental Residency at the VA Medical Center in Fayetteville N.C.
​
Dr. Silsby and wife Heidi decided that Western New York would always be home so after residency they moved back and took over the practice in Albion, NY. Dr. Silsby loves working with people to achieve the smile they have always wanted. In his spare time he loves spending time with his two children, Caleb & Grace, his black labs Calla & Lilly, and spending time in the great outdoors hiking, biking, running, fishing, hunting, skiing... you name it!
​
Continuing his education to provide the greatest care possible for his patients is of the utmost importance to Dr. Silsby. He has taken many courses offered by some of the greatest minds in dentistry and is always looking forward to implementing what he learns into the practice.
Our Technology
Dentistry has made some major strides integrating the latest technology into patient care. Our office enjoys adding tech to help improve the experience and accuracy of treatment.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
This technology is integral to our ability to place dental implants accurately as well as diagnose and plan many other procedures.
Digital Radiographs
(Digital X-rays)
Digital X-rays reduce radiation exposure, can be viewed right away (no development process) and help make treatment faster and more predictable.
CEREC CAD/CAM
System
An integrated digital scanning & in-office milling system to provide patients with permanent same-day crowns!

Diana Office Manager
I have been in the dental field since 1996. My voice is familiar to many as I am one of the primary contacts at the office. I have been with this office since 1998 and am the go to person for all your dental insurance questions.
I have lived in the area for over 40 years with my husband Dan. I enjoy spending time with my family (especially my two grandsons!) and friends and I love knitting and crocheting. In my spare time I volunteer at functions for the Clarendon Fire Co. My most enjoyable relaxation is camping at Southwoods RV Resort as a seasonal camper.
Heidi CFP & CFO
Owning a family dental practice has been a dream for Evan and I for a very long time! I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Finance at Houghton College in 2008. I spent 8 years specializing in agricultural finance and completed my Master’s degree in Personal Financial Planning and earned my designation as a CFP®. I have worked with a number of private companies in the area and enjoy teaching Master’s courses online.
My previous work experiences have allowed me develop valuable management skills to help me support the dental team however necessary.
My primary hobbies are running & horseback riding. Dr. Evan and I have two wonderful children, Caleb & Grace. As a family we love to hike with our black labs Calla & Lilly. We swim, run, and spend time outdoors as much as possible.
