Meet Lupa Latif, DMD

Meet Ryan Ku, DMD in Wallingford

Background and Credentials

After earning her undergraduate degree from Fairfield University, Dr. Latif completed her dental education at the Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine. She gained valuable experience serving and training at Codman Square Health Center in Dorchester, MA, before joining our team. Dr. Latif is an active member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the Connecticut State Dental Association.

Dr. Latif’s passion for dentistry began in high school after witnessing her own dentist restore her sister’s broken front tooth — an experience that inspired her to pursue a career combining technical skill and compassionate care. Today, she loves building connections with her patients, helping them feel informed and confident in their dental health.

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Latif enjoys reading, painting, gardening, and trying new family recipes. She also has a lifelong love for archery, despite admitting she’s not the best shot! Growing up with four sisters and two supportive parents, she values family time and embraces any opportunity for new adventures.
