About Antonela Larashi, DMD
Growing up, Antonela Larashi, DMD knew that she wanted to enter a profession where she could care for others and help them to improve their health. Her mother was a pediatrician but Dr. Larashi felt drawn to dentistry because of her own personal experiences. As a child, she had a dentist who was always friendly and a joy to visit. Dentistry offered a different type of work-life balance than traditional medicine and so after graduating with her undergraduate degree she went on to study dental medicine at Boston University. She received her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree in 2013. Throughout Dr. Larashi’s education, she enjoyed the diverse patient population whom she was able to serve: seniors most especially. “I find it extremely fulfilling to see a patient smile again or get out of pain,” she says. Her favorite part of dentistry? “The long-lasting relationship”. Being able to see her patients on a frequent basis allows her to establish true friendships that go beyond just the traditional dentist-patient connection.
