Dr. Serena Yu

Dr. Serena combines her love of working with children with her expertise in paediatric dentistry. She believes in prevention of oral diseases through educating parents on oral hygiene and diet, and through establishing good daily dental routines for kids. Her goal for every child is to make their visit fun and relaxed. She feels most fulfilled when her patients have healthy, cavity free teeth, as she believes this will provide them a strong springboard to continue to care for their oral health into adulthood and old age. After all, eating is one of the greatest pleasures in life! She takes a holistic approach to dental care, as she appreciates the nuances in treatment options depending on a child’s overall health, development, behaviour, and social factors. In her free time, she loves to read, explore different cultures and cuisines, and to be out in nature – scuba diving, hiking, and exploring the world.
