Originally from Cape Breton Island, Dr. Santana stayed close to home attending St. Francis Xavier University where she graduated in 2011 with her BSc in Biology and Chemistry. Following her undergraduate degree, she studied dentistry at McGill University completing her Doctorate in Dental Medicine in 2016.
Upon graduation, Dr. Santana finished at the top of her class and went on to complete the General Practice Residency program at Dalhousie University in 2017. Through her residency, she gained experience in dental surgery and complex restorative cases as well as received training in sedation therapy and pediatric dentistry.
Dr. Santana prides herself in offering high quality comprehensive care and continues to take courses on implant dentistry and restorative therapy. She enjoys working with patients to achieve optimal dental health and esthetics. She is particularly interested in prosthodontics: fabricating crowns, veneers, bridges and dentures.
When not practicing dentistry, Santana appreciates spending time with her family. She enjoys yoga, traveling, golfing, and spends as much time outdoors as our Nova Scotia weather permits!
