meet the team

Dr. Danielle Richman is a Cleveland native who returned home to practice dentistry after graduating in the top 10% of her class at The Ohio State University. Her patients know her as warm, meticulous, and genuinely invested in their long-term health—not just today's appointment.

What drew her to Richards Frankel Dentistry wasn't just the technology or the reputation—it was the philosophy. Like Dr. Frankel, Dr. Danielle believes dentistry is a combination of art and science, that oral health is inseparable from overall wellbeing.
