Dr. Irena Mota

Dental services the way it should be. I immigrated to Canada when I was 16 with my parents and my identical twin sister. Coming from a medical family I knew that I would do something in the health care field. I spent about a year at the dental office when we first moved fixing all my cavities and getting back to having a healthy mouth. The doctor that took care of me and my family made it the most comfortable, painless and safe experience for me and that was the moment I decided I wanted to do for people what she did for me! I took a scenic route to dentistry as directed by my mentor. She recommended I give it a try at a dental assisting or hygiene and see if I really love it first before committing myself to the long journey of becoming a doctor. I finished certified dental assisting course and started working in an office. I loved my job. In the meantime life happened - I got married and had children. After a couple of years I became a dental hygienist and continued my path on becoming a doctor. Besides helping patients with their dental health as well as encouraging them to be healthy overall, I think the best part about dentistry is the relationships that I build every day with my patients and my staff. I love coming to work knowing that my work family is there for me. Just like any family we have our ups and downs but we stick together and work through the challenges. In my 16+ years in this field that is what I cherish the most.
