Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
From an early age, Dr. Natasha knew she wanted a career where she could make a meaningful difference in people's lives. She has always loved bringing smiles to people's faces, and dentistry became the perfect way to combine that passion with her love of science, healing, and helping others. After several years in traditional dentistry, she was drawn to an approach that aligned more closely with her values and her belief in natural, holistic approaches to health. This led her to biological dentistry, where she combines science, compassionate care, and a focus on supporting the body's natural ability to heal.
What Is Your Background in Dentistry?
An Arizona native, Dr. Natasha grew up in Scottsdale and earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Arizona before receiving her Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry (DMD) degree from Oregon Health & Science University. After practicing in Oregon for a few years, she returned home to Arizona to be closer to family and is honored to now serve the community that helped shape who she is today.
Dr. Natasha pursued advanced education in biological dentistry and became a member of the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine (IABDM). She earned her Certification as a Biological Dentist, along with advanced training in ozone therapy administration, the Protect Protocol for safe mercury amalgam removal, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies, clear aligner treatment, and Swiss Dental Solutions (SDS) ceramic implant placement. Dr. Natasha remains committed to providing innovative, personalized care that supports both oral health and overall well-being.
What Do You Do Outside the Office?
When she’s not caring for patients, Dr. Natasha loves filling her time with the things that bring her joy—movement, music, adventure, and connection. One of her passions is traveling the world to experience new cultures, cuisines, and perspectives. She also enjoys dancing, practicing yoga and pilates, strength training, and attending concerts and music festivals. Above all, she cherishes creating meaningful memories and spending quality time with family and friends.
