Dr. Fernanda attended dental school at the Federal University of Santa Catarina and graduated in 2008 as a Doctor of Dental Surgery. Inspired by her family of dedicated health care professionals, she took her education to a higher level and obtained a Master’s degree in Orthodontics from Gama Filho University in 2011. Practicing in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil she embraced both traditional and cutting edge ortho treatment for patients of every age in a progressive and dynamic orthodontic practice. After moving to Canada, she integrated into the dental community both working and simultaneously studying while completing the extremely challenging and rigorous Dental Accreditation Equivalency program allowing her to practice as a licensed dentist in Canada. Dr Fernanda is bilingual and speaks both Portuguese and English. She brings her caring nature and expert orthodontic skills to Lambton Family Dental where she has already gained a following, giving our patients beautiful, healthy smiles that will last a lifetime. In her spare time, Dr F enjoys being outdoors with her family and her two dogs and tending to her rose garden.
