Dr. Santi has always been drawn to biology, connection, and creating comfort for others. He’s known for his calm, steady energy and the way he puts even the most anxious patients at ease.
What Dr. Santi loves most about being a dentist is interacting with you. He loves to learn about you and your life, and is happy to share a little bit of his with you. He will always try to break the ice by reminding you he’s just a person like you are. He is passionate about empowering you at every appointment. You have control. We go at your speed, even if it’s just to take a break to breathe.
“The most rewarding part of my job is watching someone walk in uncomfortable and walk out grateful. That’s why I do this.”
Originally from a small town in south Brazil, Dr Santi earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the Federal University of Santa Catarina in Florianópolis. He moved to Canada in 2007. Dr. Santi joined Northland Dental in 2012, invited by Dr. Pinto, his good friend and classmate from Western University.
Outside the office, you’ll find him cooking, strumming the guitar, soaking up sunshine, or planning his next trip back to Brazil to visit family. At Northland, he finds meaning in the teamwork, support, and genuine joy of showing up for each other, and for every patient who walks through the door.
