Dr Boris Zaslavsky

Dr. Boris Zaslavsky brings over 25 years of practice ownership to South Yarra Dental Group. Following in his mother's footsteps—who gave up her dental career to bring their family to Australia—Dr. Zaslavsky honours her sacrifice through his pursuit of perfection in dentistry. Dentistry excites him because it blends science, art, and precision, and after 25 years of practice ownership he still loves the detail and the pursuit of perfection. Philosophy "I believe in care that is comprehensive, compassionate, and precise. My Leica microscope lets me diagnose and treat at a microscopic level, ensuring no detail is missed. I hold myself to high standards because I believe patients deserve nothing less." Inspiration My mother was a dentist who gave up her career to bring our family to Australia. Following in her footsteps was a way of honouring her sacrifice. Dentistry excites me because it blends science, art, and precision, and after 25 years of practice ownership I still love the detail and the pursuit of perfection. Approach to Care I wear many hats in dentistry: engineer, designer, craftsman. I see dentistry as both science and art. I combine advanced technology with a love of detail and a willingness to connect personally, which helps patients feel supported and confident. Working with Patients It's the relationships. Many of my patients and their families have been with me for decades. The trust they place in me motivates me to keep striving for perfection in every detail of their care. Most Rewarding Work Cosmetic and full mouth reconstruction. These areas combine artistry, engineering, and problem-solving, and they can be life-changing for patients in both function and aesthetics.
