Nina moved to the sunny Isle of Wight with her family in 2011. She qualified with Distinction at Plovdiv’s University in 2002 as a Doctor of Dental Medicine. Her clinical focus has always been to enhance aesthetics and oral health outcomes by delivering precise and efficient care in a comfortable, relaxed environment. Although she enjoys all aspects of dentistry, her special interest is in Aesthetic Dentistry including Smile Makeovers, Orthodontics, and Facial Aesthetics. In pursuit of continuous career development, Nina has undertaken many training courses in Advanced Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry, and Facial Aesthetics and gained a Diploma in Aesthetic Dentistry from King’s College London and a Master’s Degree in Orthodontics from Warwick University. Nina has been an Invisalign Gold provider for the last few years. She prides herself in providing an excellent standard of care in all clinical scenarios from the short and simple to the more complex, often combining whitening, enamel recontouring, and composite bonding when necessary.

Nina joined the practice in 2018. Her priority is being kind, reassuring, and treating patients of various ages with empathy. She strives to build good relationships with her patients based on trust and a personal approach to care, but also because of her competence and expertise, attention to detail, and honesty. She has always aimed to use her experience and knowledge to provide long-term, functional, aesthetic dental treatment and oral health care.

In her spare time, Nina enjoys traveling with her family, gardening, handcrafting, and walking her spaniel. Helping the local community especially Mountbatten Hospice through charity fundraising has become her latest passion.
