Additional Information
My name is Gabriela (Gabi) Larrea, and I am a current D4 Dental Student at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I will be graduating in June 2022 and am looking forward to starting my career in July 2022.I was born and raised in Florida and attended the University of Florida where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology with honors and a minor in Leadership Development. I relocated to Birmingham, Alabama to attend dental school with a scholarship to the UAB School of Dentistry. I am excited to return home and serve my home state as a general dentist.While attending UAB School of Dentistry, I received a quality education where I was able to cultivate my clinical skills while maximizing patient interactions. Being the only dental school in the state of Alabama, along with a small class size, there was an abundance of clinical time and a large patient pool. UAB has a competency-based curriculum which requires all the clinical work to be completed on live patients, which allowed me to develop strong interpersonal skills through diverse patient experiences. I was able to achieve my requirements quickly and that has allowed me to focus on advanced techniques and quadrant care to improve the quality and timeliness of my work. I more than doubled my operative requirements and have completed more crowns and dentures than required of the program. I was fortunate to be able to restore implants, both fixed crowns and implant-retained over-dentures. I am also trained in digital impressions for crown and bridge using the Trios scanner.I am focused on providing comprehensive patient care with empathy, efficiency, and passion. I am dedicated to building relationships with patients and providing a positive and safe environment for care. I feel prepared, capable, and excited to start my career as a general dentist.Thank you so much for your time and consideration! I look forward to hearing from you and discussing my capabilities in more detail.
