Get to know Dentist Dr. Emily Stancato, who serves patients in Union Grove, Wisconsin.

A committed dentist, Dr. Stancato works alongside Dr. Kristin Lenz Galbreath, DMD, at Union Grove Family Dental located in Union Grove, Wisconsin.

She first became interested in dentistry in her childhood. Her own struggle with a congenital dental condition (which prevented the development of 12 permanent teeth) sparked in her a fervent desire to spend her life helping others love their smiles. She is no stranger to the dental chair and knows firsthand what patients go through.

Passionate about listening to and educating her patients to help them make the best decision for their smile and oral health, Dr. Stancato goes above and beyond to give each patient the time and consideration they deserve and prioritizes each patient’s comfort in providing gentle, quality care.

Growing up in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Chemistry from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota, before earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and graduating Magna Cum Laude from Marquette University School of Dentistry in Milwaukee.

Remaining up to date in her field, Dr. Stancato is an active member of the American Dental Association, a past member of the Wisconsin Dental Association’s Board of Trustees, and has served at the Wisconsin Dental Association House of Delegates on multiple occasions.

Committed to continuing her education, she is involved in local dental study clubs so she can provide the best, most personalized dental care to her patients.

In her free time, Dr. Stancato enjoys hiking, motorcycling, playing recreation league softball, and singing. One may even catch her humming while she works during a dental procedure. She loves to find joy in the simple things in life, and enjoys working in her garden, trying out new home-made Italian recipes with her husband, and dancing around the living room with their daughter.
