Dr. Tara Aboumahboub was born and raised in South Florida. She received her Bachelor’s degree in biotechnology and minor in nutrition from the University of Florida. Prior to dental school, she spent several years in the immunology lab at the University of Florida College of Dentistry. She then completed her dental training in Boston at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, having achieved the highest level of clinical competency and success.

 

During her training, Dr. Tara treated patients with a multitude of backgrounds and medical complexities. She travelled and trained internationally, where she developed a deep understanding of healthcare disparities and recognized the opportunity to provide care for a community. She brings that same passion to her every day care here in the U.S. She attributes her keen eye for perfection to her artistic and aesthetic background. She prioritizes making connections with every patient that sits in her chair. Dr. Tara strives to advocate for and educate patients as well as practice evidence-based dentistry.

 

Today, Dr. Tara is caring for patients in private practice as a general dentist in Cincinnati, OH and runs her social media page, Dentara, to help patients build confidence in their smile and overall health. She is also a member of the Ohio Dental Society and proudly a constituent of the IgniteDDS family.
