I began my journey in dentistry over a decade ago, working as a dental nurse in both Finland and Sweden. Those early years shaped my understanding of patient care, communication, and the importance of creating a calm and safe environment in healthcare.

My passion for oral health, aesthetics, and evidence-based medicine led me to study Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) at Umeå University, where I developed strong clinical skills in restorative dentistry, oral surgery, periodontics, and preventive care. I became particularly interested in minimally invasive treatments, smile aesthetics and how oral health directly influences confidence, wellbeing, and quality of life.

Before dentistry, I studied a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy at the University of Gothenburg. This background in chemistry, biomaterials, and pharmacology influences how I work today, both clinically and in product development ,ensuring that everything I offer is safe, effective, and grounded in science. Through my years working in clinics, public health, elder care, and private dentistry, I realised something important:

”patients don’t just want treatment. They want an experience that feels personal, calm, and trustworthy.”
