When Dr. Ahmed started his practice in 1996, he wanted to create an
office environment that was both welcoming and comfortable to his patients.
Based on our guests’ comments, we think he succeeded. Our patients
always comment on how quiet and relaxing our office is. Everyone on our
team is eager to help you whether you have questions about your teeth
or an insurance matter you need to resolve. We’re a paperless office
so we are always able to access your medical information immediately.
Nadeem M. Ahmed, D.M.D.
Hi, I'm Dr. Nadeem Ahmed, founder of Smile Solutions. My philosophy of practice
stems from a desire to provide unparalleled personal service for you, the patient.
I was born in Huddersfield, England. Upon completing my high school education in
the United Kingdom in 1986, I came to the United States on August 27th 1987. I
completed my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Barry University in Miami Shores,
Florida in 1991. I also had the opportunity to study undergraduate courses in International
Business at University College London, and I also studied Psychology at Oxford University England.
Starting my formal dental education, I had the opportunity to study at Loyola University
of Chicago College of Dentistry. Desiring to live and practice in Orlando, Florida, I graduated
with Honors with a Doctor of Dental Medicine Degree from the University of Florida College of
Dentistry (GO GATORS!) in 1996. Since that time, I have exclusively served the Central Florida community.
Continuing my education, I have become an Invisalign® (straightening teeth without
braces) certified provider. Also, having the desire to provide the highest level of quality
cosmetic dentistry, I became an LVI (Las
Vegas Institute) Preferred Dentist. This is the
premier elite organization involved in cosmetic dentistry today.
From the beginning of my dental career, I have been a member of organized dentistry with
memberships and affiliations including the American Dental Association and the Florida Dental
Association. And, on the local level, I am also a member of the Dental Society of Greater Orlando.
After hours, I enjoy volunteering within my community through such activities as teaching
at local elementary schools and coaching a junior soccer team. In addition, I am the resident
dental expert on the "Ask the Experts" program on AM 580 WDBO (see radio show archives
in the Smile Resources section of the website). I also enjoy a variety of interests with my
wife, Katherine, and five children, including boating, jet-skiing, wakeboarding, radio control
motor sports, motorcycling, swimming, and soccer.
My goal is to provide you, the current or potential patient, with an experience that leaves
you feeling informed, hopeful, and inspired to make your smile as beautiful as YOU want it to
be. This is accomplished through focused attention to your desires and needs. I encourage you
to stop by and meet me personally, as well as to tour our facility and to meet the rest of our
Smile Solutions team.
Tearsa M. Smith
My name is Tearsa Smith and I am a Patient Coordinator at Smile Solutions. My job is to coordinate every aspect of our current, future, and potential patients’ experience here at Smile Solutions. This includes answering all questions and being with our patient every step of their experience at Smile Solutions, from completing their new patient paperwork, to coordinating their treatment, to presenting their financial options, and to treatment care follow-up and recall.
I have over 12 years of experience in the dental field. I was born in Carson City, Michigan and in my spare time I enjoy bowling, pool, reading, cross-stitching, singing, and spending quality time with my husband, Brad, and my daughter, Mikayla.
One of the things I enjoy the most about dentistry is helping patients feel better about themselves by being a part of a team that delivers amazing dental results. Our team at Smile Solutions is made up of caring staff dedicated to patient service and providing the best quality dental treatment. I welcome your visit to Smile Solutions and I look forward to coordinating the best patient dental experience you’ve ever had!
Doris Irizarry
My name is Doris Irizarry and I am a dental hygienist
at Smile Solutions. I was born and raised in New York City and practiced as a dental hygienist in midtown Manhattan for 18 years before moving to Orlando in 2005. I have been married for 20 years and have one son who is 17 and still my sunshine.
On my leisure time I enjoy cooking, eating, baking,
bicycling, playing reacquetball, bowling, quilting, and watching Survivor. I have one big 12 year old dog ( she's like the daughter I never had) and one 7 year old chinchilla.
What I enjoy most about working at Smile Solutions is
that we have an awesome team that shares the commitment that our care should be comprehensive, compassionate, courteous, and responsive to your individual needs and preferences.
I look forward to giving you personalized attention and helping you take care of your smile.
Maritza Martinez, C.D.A.
My name is Mara Martinez and I am a dental assistant at Smile Solutions. I have 12 years of dental experience. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico, and moved to Florida in 1993 with my family.
In my spare time I enjoy shopping, shopping, pampering myself at the salon, going to the gym, spending time with my parents, sister and friends……oh and did I mention shopping?
The things that I like best about Smile Solution are the incredible dental team that we have and the quality of dental work provided to our patients. As a member of our dental team, I feel that I never work alone, but rather am part of a team dedicated to making your dental experience the best! I also feel that Dr. Ahmed provides the highest quality of dental treatment to his patients, and as both an employee AND patient of Dr. Ahmed, I can really appreciate this approach.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your goals.
