Shiva Borukhim DDS
Dr. Shiva Hedvat Borukhim specializes in dentistry for infants, children, and patients with special health care needs. She grew up in Los Angeles and received her Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Dental Surgery degrees from UCLA, graduating Magna Cum Laude and as a member of the National Dental Honor Society. She is proud to have continued her education at UCLA’s Pediatric Dentistry residency program and was a recipient of the Pugh Achievement Award, honoring the top 3% of scores on the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry Examination. She married her wonderful and supportive (Trojan!) husband during her second year of dental school, and they have two bright and energetic sons, Dean and Pierce.
Dr. Shiva strives to provide quality treatment while creating a positive experience that leaves children eager to return. She believes in the power of prevention and has a conservative approach to dental care. She aims to promote a collaborative environment that connects the dentist, parent, and child to create a relationship that lasts long after their appointment. It would be her privilege to meet your child in the dental chair!
