Dr. Hesham Sherghin

B.Sc., D.D.S., M.B.A., M.Sc., m.sc*, m.sc**

Dr. Sherghin has spent over 15 years helping nervous, complex, and special-needs patients get dental care in a relaxed, pain-free setting. He holds certifications in Nitrous and Oral-Moderate Sedation, Parenteral IV Conscious Sedation, and Advanced Cardiac Life Support, and he built Sleep Dentists specifically to give anxious patients a calmer path to treatment.

His practice is built on empathy and patient-centered care. Dr. Sherghin takes the time to listen to each patient’s concerns, explain every option clearly, and tailor a sedation plan to fit their comfort level, not the other way around.
