Smile Matters
General, Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
I sat in a dental chair for the first time at age 6 and decided right then that I wanted to be the one making people smile. After graduating from UBC's dental program with more than 15 years of clinical experience since, I've practiced in Nelson, Burnaby, and Langley before opening my own clinic, Smile Matters, in 2017, right here in Burnaby. I focus on general dentistry along with oral surgery, dental prosthetics, and orthodontics, including Invisalign, and my goal is always the same: making every patient feel genuinely at ease.
My family immigrated to Canada from Belarus, and after finishing my dental degree at UBC, my first job took me to Nelson, a small town where I quickly learned to call patients by name, something that shaped how I practice ever since. I eventually made my way back to Metro Vancouver, working in Burnaby and Langley, before opening my own clinic, Smile Matters, in 2017.
What I focus on:
- General and family dentistry
- Oral and maxillofacial surgery
- Dental prosthetics
- Orthodontics, including Invisalign
My clinic is equipped with the latest technology, but what matters most to me is still what drew me to dentistry in the first place: making sure every patient feels calm, cared for, and genuinely known. I'm welcoming new patients, come by and see for yourself.
