Meet Your Go-To Dentist In Orange County

Get To Know Dr. Selina Sarno

Born and raised in the Los Angeles area, Dr. Sarno knew from a young age she would always call California home. She completed her UCLA undergraduate studies with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry, and went on to attend the UCLA School of Dentistry for her DDS. It was in dental school where she met her husband; who is now an endodontist. After graduating, Dr. Sarno completed an advanced education program in General Dentistry residency at the UCLA Venice Dental Clinic. (Go Bruins!) She enjoyed her studies, and continues to participate in continuing education on a frequent basis.

Dr. Sarno always had a passion for the arts and sciences, and she found that dentistry was the perfect field for her to bring them together. On top of that, the ability to run her own business and spend time building relationships with patients excited her, and still does! You could say she’s found the sweet spot in her career at Foothill Modern Dental. She enjoys all aspects of dentistry, and the ability it has to change someone’s life. She enjoys transformative procedures but also holds great respect for preventive dentistry and the great influence it has over long-term oral health.

When she’s not at the office, you can find Dr. Sarno playing golf with her husband, a sport she recently picked up during the pandemic. She also runs marathons–5 total so far! She enjoys digital and film photography, as well as graphic design (her husband says she is drawn to anything aesthetically pleasing). She also enjoys board games, hiking, going to local breweries, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.
