Biography

After qualifying as a dentist from a top dental school in Brazil in 2004, Dr Polidoro worked in a private practice and also undertook a year-long course in endodontics (root canal treatment). She then moved to London and registered with the General Dental Council in 2008.

At the age of eight, she suffered a traumatic dental injury and almost lost two of her top front teeth. She underwent extensive dental treatment and was one of the lucky 10% of people whose teeth can be saved following such an injury. This experience ignited Ana’s passion for dentistry and set her on the path to becoming a dentist.

Ana has an empathetic and honest approach to dentistry with a gentle ‘chairside’ manner. She is an enthusiastic oral health educator and has a special way with nervous clients, taking the time to gain their trust and watch their confidence blossom. One of her main aims is to ensure her clients fully understand their treatment plans and all available options.

Other interests

Ana loves traveling and exploring new places and cultures around the world! She also was a keen swimmer in her teens when she competed in a 2.2 km open water swimming event, but it was only in 2014 that she found her great passion for fitness and healthy living.

The entire team at Smilepod Moorgate is very professional and friendly. Seven years ago, I turned to Carine Borges to improve the aesthetics of my teeth, which she did excellently with a whitening treatment and a series of high-quality and durable composite bondings. Recently, I returned for a check-up, and only one of the bondings had to be redone, while the others are still doing great. I highly recommend Carine for both her professionalism and her human qualities.

Inga not only delivers first class teeth cleaning she has a warm, reassuring manner which really puts you at ease. Very skilled but gentle in her use of the instruments. I've tried 3 other Smilepods in London and Inga is the best. Top job.

Had my teeth treated and composite bonding done by Anna - a very good experience. I think she is very good at her work and pays attention to the smallest detail. With Anna, you are in safe hands!

Cindy Sousa attended to me on my appointment back in December, and I couldn't be more grateful - I received a full cleaning service done to the highest of standards. She took her time to ensure I was happy with the outcome and was beyond kind and professional. I've been to SmilePod a few times and will ensure I book with Cindy going forward as the experience was top notch! Thank you! 🫶🏼
