Meet Dr. Roya Naseh—a dentist with an extraordinary journey. Growing up in a family of educated doctors, she embraced her passion and earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in Iran back in 1997. What’s truly impressive is that she not only graduated at the top of her class but also managed to raise her one-year-old daughter simultaneously.
After spending a couple of years working as a general dentist, Dr. Roya felt a strong inner pull to pursue further specialization. In 1999, she made her way back to Mashhad University, embarking on an intensive three-year orthodontic residency that she successfully completed in 2002. Impressively, she once again secured the top position in the Iranian National Dental Board Exam.
For a remarkable 15 years, Dr. Roya shared her knowledge as a university professor at Qazvin University of Medical Sciences. There, she nurtured the minds of budding orthodontists, teaching them the ropes of her craft. But that’s not all—she donned various hats, serving as Dean Associate in Education, Orthodontic Department Head, and Research Centre Head. No wonder she’s got a collection of papers published in both local and international journals.
