Academic Excellence in Orthodontia

Dr. Helia’s road to academic excellence began at New Brunswick’s Rutgers University in New Jersey. She achieved high academic honors and made the Dean’s List during her entire time at the university, earning her a Phi Theta Kappa scholarship. She was also a recipient of the SAS Excellence Scholarship. 

Dr. Helia received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Biological Sciences. She then went on to the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry, meeting the educational standards that earned her a spot on the Dean’s List, before earning her D.D.S. or Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. She furthered her studies by attending the Georgia School of Orthodontics, earning her Certificate of Orthodontics.

During her residency, Dr. Helia specialized in pediatric dentistry, so she has specialized knowledge in the best of both worlds -- orthodontics and pediatric dentistry. 

She continues to study the latest advancements in her field to deliver the highest caliber of care to her patients. Some of the challenges she enjoys the most is always to learn a better way of doing things, perfecting her craft, and striving to be the best she can be. 

Her ultimate goal is to help create gorgeous smiles for her patients while maximizing their oral health. To help her succeed, she’s received training in the most innovative techniques available today, such as mini-implant placement, Invisalign, laser technology, and more.
