about
Dr. ruba reyal, dds
I was raised in Limassol, Cyprus, surrounded by the beauty of the Mediterranean and a strong sense of community. My journey began with studying airport management and aviation science, but I quickly realized it wasn’t where my heart belonged. I wanted a career that felt more personal, more fulfilling.
That led me to medical esthetics, where I became a skincare specialist, helping people feel beautiful and confident. I loved the instant gratification of seeing someone’s face light up after a treatment—it was a reminder of how powerful self-care and confidence could be.
But I wanted to take it further. Dentistry felt like the perfect extension of what I loved—combining aesthetics with health, working on something as personal as a smile. Seeing the immediate joy on a patient’s face when they see their new smile is what makes this path so rewarding for me. It’s not just about teeth; it’s about restoring confidence, enhancing appearance, and making people feel their best.
Every step of my journey has led me here, and I wouldn’t change a thing.
There are moments when I stand still, watching the world move around me, feeling both full and empty at the same time. I am a mother—my heart beats in the laughter and dreams of my three children, my greatest masterpieces. I have poured myself into them, shaping them to be kind, strong, and compassionate souls who give back to the world. And in them, I see the legacy of my love.
Yet, sometimes, in the quiet spaces between giving and doing, I wonder—who am I beyond what I give? I thrive in the act of service, in reaching out to the less fortunate, in volunteering my time and energy, yet there are moments I feel lost in the giving. I love the freedom of the open water, the stillness of fishing at dawn, the unspoken bond between me and a horse as we move as one. These are the moments I reclaim myself, where I breathe in deeply and remember that I, too, am worthy of care.
