Dr. Tara Aboumahboub was born and raised in South Florida. She received her Bachelor’s degree in biotechnology and minor in nutrition from the University of Florida. She then completed her dental training in Boston at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, having achieved the highest level of clinical competency and success.
During her training, Dr. Tara treated patients with a multitude of backgrounds and medical complexities. She travelled and trained internationally, where she developed a deep understanding of healthcare disparities and recognized the opportunity to provide care for a community. She brings that same passion to her every day care here in the U.S. She attributes her keen eye for perfection to her artistic and aesthetic background. She prioritizes making connections with every patient that sits in her chair.
Tara's latest accomplishment has been the creation of her brand Dentara, which expands on lifestyle, empowerment, education, and of course, dentistry. She is looking forward to developing Dentara further as her career blossoms. Tara is thrilled to be a part of the Ignite team and hopes to help dentists see what an incredible community IgniteDDS has cultivated.
