About Florina
At Smile Solutions, Melbourne's premier dental practice, Dr Florina Besim is the kind of dentist who puts you at ease before you've even settled into the chair. She grew up in country Victoria, completed a Bachelor of Biomedical Science at La Trobe University, then headed north to Queensland where she earned her Bachelor of Dental Science with First Class Honours at The University of Queensland.
Her early clinical years took her across both metropolitan and regional Queensland, where she cared for patients from all sorts of backgrounds and circumstances. That experience grounded her approach to dentistry in something straightforward: listen carefully, explain things clearly, and work with each patient towards the best outcome for their oral health.
Florina's clinical interests cover restorative and aesthetic dentistry, periodontal health, and oral surgery. She's particularly focused on helping patients maintain healthy teeth and gums over the long term, and on preserving natural teeth wherever that's possible. Her approach is evidence-based and tailored to the individual, whether you're coming in with a specific concern or just keeping on top of routine care.
She's known for being calm and considered, and for taking the time to make sure patients actually understand what's happening with their treatment. As she sees it, informed patients are empowered patients.
Outside the practice, Florina enjoys exploring new parts of Australia, heading to the beach with her dog, and getting out for a run or hike. She's also a keen foodie, so if you have a Melbourne restaurant recommendation, she's happy to hear it.
