Dr. Solmaz Forutan DMD

It was in Chicago where Dr. Solmaz Forutan earned her dental degree. She was among the top 5% percent of her class at UIC, receiving the Golden Scaler Award for clinical excellence. She has published and presented her work on evidence-based dentistry, receiving several prestigious award. Dr. Forutan moved from Chicago to the Bay Area for, among other reasons, its better (and warmer!) weather. Dr. Forutan enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and is very passionate about improving people’s oral health. She treats each patient as if they were her own family member. She takes the time to talk in depth with her patients about dental issues, their causes, and treatment options. She also finds it very rewarding to provide high quality dental care to children, as it is the foundation for their future oral and overall health. Dr. Forutan believes in minimally invasive dentistry and biomimetic approach, and her goal is to save as much tooth structure as possible.
When not practicing dentistry or pursuing CE, Dr. Forutan enjoys hiking, swimming, biking, watching movies, cooking new recipes, and baking all kinds of sweets. She loves spending time with her husband, son, and daughter, doing activities from board games and puzzles at home to exploring all that the beautiful Bay Area has to offer.
