Meet
Dr. Mary Lou Murtha, DDS - in Encino
Meet Dr. Mary Lou Murtha, one of Nuvia’s exceptional restorative dentists at the Encino, CA clinic.
About
Dr. Mary Lou Murtha, DDS
Dr. Mary Lou Murtha was inspired to pursue dentistry by her mother, who was also a dentist. Growing up in the Philippines, Dr. Murtha has fond memories of patients visiting their family home for treatment—and always leaving with a smile. That early experience shaped her deep passion for patient care and set her on the path to becoming a dentist herself.
Why Nuvia
Dr. Murtha had looked into many other dental offices but it wasn’t until she came across Nuvia in Encino that she felt she had found somewhere that had core values that aligned with her own.
As someone who is incredibly patient focused, Dr. Murtha loves that she can provide patients with their permanent teeth in 24 hours, a starkly different method to traditional methods that have patients waiting for what could be up to 10+ months for their permanent teeth.
Outside of the Office
Dr. Murtha loves spending time with her husband and two daughters. Together they love going on hikes, visiting waterfalls, or cooking.
