Meet Dr. Elhaine Beato, Nuvia’s restorative dentist at the Orlando, FL clinic.

About
Dr. Elhaine Beato is the restorative dentist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Orlando, FL. Born and raised in the Dominican Republic, she completed her dental degree there in 2010 before relocating to the United States with her family. She continued her training at the University of Washington in Seattle and went on to complete a three-year prosthodontics residency at the University of Florida.
Dr. Beato grew up surrounded by healthcare—her mother is a physician—and was drawn early to the idea of helping people. Before becoming a dentist, she trained and worked as a dental assistant and certified lab technician, which gave her hands-on appreciation for both the science and the craft of dentistry. That combination of helping others and working with her hands ultimately led her to prosthodontics and full arch restoration.
Dr. Beato was drawn to Nuvia because of its core values, especially being patient-obsessed. She believes patients should always come first, and she wanted to be part of an organization built around listening to them and walking with them through the process.
Outside of work, Dr. Beato spends most of her free time with her family. They love being near the water—Orlando’s beaches are a favorite weekend escape—and at home with their two dogs. Above all, she treasures time with her six-year-old daughter, who she says is growing up far too fast.

Our doctors are not just experts; they are visionaries in the field of dental implantology. With decades of surgical and restorative experience, and a passion for pioneering research, they are at the forefront of innovation.

Dr. Anderson’s interest in dentistry began after seeing his great uncle work in the field. That was enough to inspire him to go to dental school where he then was introduced to oral surgery. Dr. Anderson knew right away oral surgery was the field for him.
He completed dental school at University of Minnesota and went on to do his residency at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn, NY.
As an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Anderson loves that he can help restore smiles. Full mouth dental implants; however, are some of the most fulfilling transformations for him to be part of.
Since being part of the Nuvia team, Dr. Anderson has been able to help patients who thought they wouldn’t be candidates for the procedure. His favorite part of the job is seeing patients fall in love with their new smiles.
When he isn’t at the office, Dr. Anderson loves to fish, snowmobile, and spend time with his son. They enjoy playing sports together, their favorites being football, basketball, and baseball.
