Meet Dr. Sara Alaskka-Amini, Nuvia’s prosthodontist and restorative dentist at the Richmond, VA clinic.

About
Dr. Sara Alaskka-Amini is the restorative dentist and prosthodontist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Richmond, VA. She earned her prosthodontics training at the University of Florida and has been practicing for five years.
Dr. Alaskka-Amini’s interest in dentistry started young. Her uncle, an orthodontist, ran a small clinic next to her grandmother’s house, and she grew up watching him treat patients and seeing firsthand the impact he had on their lives. That experience inspired her to build her own career around the same kind of impact.
Dr. Alaskka-Amini chose Nuvia because the practice consistently puts patients first—something she looks for before joining any team. She also loves working alongside top-tier oral surgeons and a team that keeps the patient’s best interest in mind at every step.
She’s especially drawn to the chance to help patients get permanent teeth in 24 hours. She’s worked closely with patients through the traditional transitional phase between surgery and permanent teeth, and she’s seen how much they go through during that stretch. Being able to deliver a permanent zirconia restoration in 24 hours is a game-changer for the patient experience. She sees zirconia as one of the best restorative materials available—durable and long-lasting—and appreciates that Nuvia’s process is precise, not one that cuts corners.
Outside of work, Dr. Alaskka-Amini loves to swim, read a good book, and travel to new places. She’s also known for tracking down a great coffee shop wherever she goes—somewhere quiet to read or work on research. She’s new to Richmond and would love recommendations for the local favorites.

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.
