Dr Anita Jain

Dr. Anita Jain grew up in Calgary, graduating from the University of Alberta School of Dentistry in 2006, with honours and several prestigious awards for her clinical skill and community involvement. During the first five years of her dental career, Dr. Jain worked as an associate at several clinics, learning from other professionals and developing her own approach to providing ethical, comprehensive dental health care. She spent a year and a half as the sole dentist in the town of Logan Lake, BC, where she gained a tremendous amount of experience and received the mentorship of Dr. Doug Takahashi in Kamloops, one of Canada’s foremost practitioners in implant dentistry. Before and during dental school, Dr. Jain took several trips to Nicaragua as a dental volunteer, both alone and with the Canadian organization Kindness In Action, which sends groups all over the world to provide emergency dental care to impoverished communities. Dr. Jain has been a clinical instructor at the UBC Dental School and has volunteered extensively at the Vancouver Eastside Dental Clinic. For several years Dr. Jain also operated the dental clinic at the George Derby Centre, a long-term geriatric care facility. There she gained a tremendous sympathy for how the elderly are treated in such facilities and a determination to set her patients up for the best possible oral health in preparation for their golden years. Dr. Jain is committed to continued learning and skill development in the field of dentistry and was a member of the Vancouver Oral Implantology Surgical Study Club while it was under the mentorship of Dr. Don Anderson. She is a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantology in recognition of her training under the Misch International Implant Institute, and is currently a member of the Vancouver and District Dental Society lecture series as well as the American Academy of Clear Aligners study club.
