Our Dentists

Meet Our Dentists

Our dentists share a common commitment to delivering exceptional dental care through education, collaboration, and personalized treatment.
Together, they bring decades of combined experience and a wide range of clinical expertise, allowing Heirloom Dental to provide comprehensive care for patients of all ages. While each doctor has their own professional background and areas of interest, they all share the same goal—helping every patient feel comfortable, informed, and confident in their care.

She enjoys dentistry because of the variety of procedures that can be performed. Dr. Leah has a special interest in early interceptive/mixed dentition and adult orthodontics.  She continues to further her knowledge of the topic of clear aligner therapy by being a member of Clearly Aligned and Molis Coaching continuing education groups.

Outside of her dental practice, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. Family life is an important source of joy and balance for her, and together they enjoy traveling, skiing, and doing most outdoor activities.

Dr. Leah is a past member on the Board of Directors for the Rotary Club of Brantford and is a past board member of the Hamilton/Burlington Brantford YMCA and the Brant Community Health Care System Foundation.
