About Dr. Sakka

Dr. Sakka is originally from Homs, Syria, and received her Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Kalamoon School of Dental Medicine in 2012. While working as a general dentist, Dr. Sakka developed an interest in surgical dentistry, implant dentistry, and periodontal plastic surgery. She then pursued specialty training in periodontics at the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, where she received her specialty certification. During her three-year intensive specialty program, Dr. Sakka obtained advanced training in atraumatic tooth extractions, implant surgery, gum grafting, bone grafting, and oral medicine.

Dr. Sakka first became interested in dentistry because it combined science, hands-on work, and the opportunity to build relationships with patients. She ensures a comfortable and positive experience by treating every patient with kindness, patience, and respect—taking the time to listen to your concerns, explain procedures clearly, and help you feel at ease, especially if you’re anxious or nervous about dental treatment. Dr. Sakka is a proud member of the American Academy of Periodontology and actively attends annual meetings, seminars, and workshops nationally and internationally. She’s also a Fellow of the Royal College of Canada.

Personal Life

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Sakka enjoys spending time with her family, reading books, history, collecting antiques, swimming, and traveling the world. She once took a 16-hour flight with her two kids to visit Damascus and explored the historic Souq Al-Hamidiyeh, a 246-year-old market, walking nearly 20 miles without taking a taxi!
