Dr Cristina Carrara was born in Italy and attended a French secondary school in Rome. The deep knowledge of four languages led her to study in New York for an exchange and finally led Cristina to carry out her dental studies in the European University of Madrid. During her time at university she carried out a research dissertation which focused on ‘the management of anxiety in dental surgery’, this enhanced level of understanding makes her comfortably able to conduct a wide variety of treatments on anxious dental patients.
Dr Cristina’s passion is for cosmetic dentistry and this focus has led her to achieve a postgraduate degree in Advanced Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry. This has developed her skills in full smile makeovers and full mouth rehabilitation.
Dr Carrara is also a certified Invisalign provider and ClearCorrect provider (clear aligners for teeth straightening). Cristina’s main interest is supporting her patients throughout their journey, making sure they feel comfortable and concentrating on the importance of having an optimal oral health care.
Cristina is undertaking a master (MSc) of periodontology (specialist treatments of gum diseases).
In her free time Cristina loves being in the nature, traveling and doing yoga.
