Dr. Ala Awad is a member of the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario, Ontario Dental Association and Canadian Dental Association. Dr. Awad completed her dental degree with honours at Ajman University of Science and Technology, United Arab Emirates (UAE), in 2012. She completed her Canadian board exams in 2016 and proudly passed on her first attempt.

Dr. Awad has never stopped learning, and she continues to evolve, always aiming for excellence! She has earned more than ten different certificates in different aspects of dentistry since graduation from dental school. Dr. Awad completed the Oral Maxillofacial Surgery fellowship in 2017 at Toronto and Implant Academy and then obtained the Nitrous Oxide and Oral Sedation certificate from the University of Toronto in 2018.

Dr. Awad’s support of different charity centres in the Greater Toronto Area is a testament to her attachment to the community. Outside of her dental practice, she enjoys reading and exercising daily. She has always believed that too often, we underestimate the power of a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest active caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
