Meet Dr. Covino
I am fortunate to have attained the level of an orthodontic specialist in the dental profession and equally honored to be recognized by the American Board of Orthodontics as a Board Certified orthodontist for demonstrating continuing expertise in my field. I appreciate being able to provide such a life-changing service to my patients. Nothing compares to having a positive impact on so many different types of people’s lives. It is very rewarding to see the outcome of my vision and plan in a patient’s beautiful smile.
My profession is a direct reflection of my personality. I enjoy meeting new people and getting to know them as individuals while helping them achieve their smile goals. I am excited about approaching each patient with a customized treatment plan to meet their smile expectations.

Our Orthodontic Family
I have put together an exceptionally talented team of caring professionals. Each member has a defined role in our office to make the patient experience beyond what they would expect. We treat each patient and their family according to their unique needs. Each person who walks in the door becomes a very special part of the Covino Orthodontics family.
Outside the Office
I am a native of Dobbs Ferry, New York, and have called Solebury, PA my home since 2000. My wife, Kathy, and I have three children. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my wife and children, golfing, bike riding, and doing home improvement projects.
Being active in my community is a great way to give back to those who have been so supportive to me. As a practice, Covino Orthodontics is proud to sponsor many local sport teams and participate in various school fairs, health information events, and fund-raisers to increase awareness of the importance of orthodontics. Additionally, I volunteer my time as the school dentist for our local public school district.
