Dr. Negin Azari

From the age of 6, Dr. Negin Azari knew dentistry was her calling after a positive experience with her first pediatric dentist.

She believes that a person's smile is a crucial aspect of their identity. While others may notice hair or eyes, she focuses on teeth. The joy of dentistry, for her, lies in enhancing smiles to boost confidence and improve overall health since teeth play a fundamental role in a person's well-being.

Moreover, the dental practice feels like home, with a team that treats each other like family, united by the common goal of providing exceptional care to their guests.
