Dr. Bobbie Lee Hawranko, DMD

A native of Pittsburgh, Dr Bobbie Lee Hawranko has been practicing dentistry for over twenty-five years. For over fifteen of these years, she has been in her own private practice. Her passion for Cosmetic and Aesthetic Dentistry along with her love for the city, lead her to create her favorite practice so far, The Dentists At Shadyside Place. Here, she brings high-end and general dentistry along with the latest dental technology to the city. Dr. Hawranko also sits on an array of dental and medical boards where she can expand her expertise to the next generations of practitioners. While not doing dentistry, Dr. Bobbie is busy tending to her organic garden or raising her honey bees.

"We have earned our leadership reputation within the dental community by providing a natural approach to dentistry that is built upon an emphasis of being continually educated on the latest techniques, materials, and technology. Our experience and determination has led us to be on the forefront of biodentistry."

He has provided free oral health services to children through the ADA Foundation’s Give Kids A Smile® program and free dental screening and oral care education to local communities and schools. Dr. Lin is fluent in Mandarin Chinese and a native speaker. He is married (his wife, Emily, is also a dentist) and enjoys running, cycling, and Ultimate Frisbee when he is away from the practice.

Dr. Lin is actively involved in the pursuit of continuing education and has received additional training in the areas of occlusion, all ceramic and CAD/CAM dentistry; endodontics, medical emergency, risk management, domestic violence, and HIPAA compliance.
