    An Artist's Touch for Creating Healthy Smiles

    Dr. Hedy Atashbar has been practicing family, general, and cosmetic dentistry since 1993. She received her BS in Biology and her DDS from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

    Dr. Atashbar grew up in Tehran, Iran, and attended high school in Spain. In the mid-'90s, she moved to the States to pursue her academic goals. Although she began her studies with the intention of becoming a medical doctor, she soon decided dentistry was an optimum career choice.

    'As dentists today, we have such a unique opportunity to change not only people's health, but their image,' she says.  'No country in the world is as advanced in dentistry as the United States, where a healthy smile is a sign of overall health.  Here, dentistry is as much an art as it is a science.'

    'As dentists today, we have such a unique opportunity to change not only people's health, but their image.'

    Dr. Atashbar worked as an associate for nearly six years before opening her own practice in Silver Spring, Maryland.  Fluent in Farsi, she has increasingly drawn a diverse array of patients from many cultures.  

    Dr. Atashbar is married with two daughters.
