Meet the Doctors

Allentown Dental Associates

Dr. Jennifer Barron, DMD

Born and raised in the Lehigh Valley, Dr. Jennifer Barron graduated from Allentown Central Catholic with her B.A. in English and Political Science from Bucknell University. She attended the University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry and earned her Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry in 2003. She began her career as a practitioner in Philadelphia. After taking a position in her current office, she moved home and made the practice her own.

She enjoys caring for families and being part of their dental well-being. From a conservative tooth contour to a full-mouth reconstruction, each patient is unique in their needs. Open dialogue and understanding are key to establishing treatment plans for her patients.

Outside of the office, she enjoys spending time with her husband Ryan, her son Quinn, and their kitties. Dr. Barron enjoys tennis, painting, running, dinners with friends, skiing, carpentry, drawing, biking, hiking, writing, and caring for her ever-changing landscaping (if only there were more hours in the day!). She and her family live in Emmaus.

Dr. Adam Miller

Dr. Miller was born in Maple Heights, OH and grew up in Warrington, PA with two brothers. Dr. Adam Miller came to the Lehigh Valley in 2000 to attend Muhlenberg College for his undergraduate studies. He graduated in 2004 with his Bachelor's degree in Biology. After graduating he attended Temple University Dental School, earning his DMD in 2008. Dr. Miller returned to the Lehigh Valley for a General Practice Residency at Lehigh Valley Hospital in Muhlenberg. After completing his residency in June 2009, he joined Allentown Dental Associates and has been with us ever since.

While at Muhlenberg College, Dr. Miller met the lovely Rita Shafer. Rita is a native of the Lehigh Valley, attending Parkland School District before moving on to Muhlenberg College. Adam and Rita married in June 2008. In 2013 they welcomed their first child, little Rita, to the family, and in 2016 they welcomed a son, Luke. The family currently lives happily in Quakertown.

Enjoyments outside the office include golfing with his brothers and spending time with family at sporting events. Dr. Miller is an avid Ohio State fan.

Dr. Jason Sika

Dr. Jason Sika joined Allentown Dental Associates in 2005. He enjoys helping patients take care of their smiles and dental health, employing empathy and humor to set his patients at ease. Dr. Sika was born in the western suburbs of Chicago, IL in 1978. When his mother accepted a new position with her company, Dr. Sika, and his family moved to Long Island. NY in 1988, where they become regular patrons of the local animal shelter, adding a menagerie of dogs and cats to the family. He attended Houghton College in the snowbelt of rural upstate New York, earning a degree in biology with a minor in Spanish in 1999. Dr. Sika graduated from the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 2004, with a Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree. He spent an additional postdoctoral year at Stony Brook, completing an Advanced Education in General Dentistry program.

After completing his dental education, Dr. Sika moved to the Lehigh Valley, taking his first dental job at Allentown Dental Associates. He loved the office and the patients so much that he decided to make his career there. He met his spouse in 2007, and they discovered a mutual love of hound dogs and are proud to share their lives with two lovely beagles. Dr. Sika is an amateur history buff, focusing primarily on American and British history, and enjoys traveling extensively around the United States and the United Kingdom.

In 2022, constraints by pre-dental classes caused him to resume his studies and improve his fluency in Spanish. His family was surprised by the piles of Amazon boxes arriving from Spain, which were found to contain grammar textbooks and novels written entirely in Spanish. In conjunction with this reading material, he began watching telenovelas (Spanish soap operas) on Netflix to improve his listening skills. Much progress has been made. but it's a long but fulfilling road, which will hopefully allow Dr. Sika to communicate more effectively with his patients.
