About Dr. Marianna Zadov
Dentistry built around understanding, not urgency
Dr. Zadov is the Clinical Director and lead dentist at Happy Smiles of Fort Myers, where she provides cosmetic, restorative, and preventive dental care.
Her practice is shaped by a simple belief: patients make confident decisions when they can see what is happening in their own mouth, understand the options in plain language, and choose without pressure. Appointments are paced to leave room for questions and for reviewing images together.
That philosophy carries through the whole practice. Every recommendation is tied to a specific goal for the patient, whether that is comfort, function, appearance, or simply keeping a healthy smile healthy.

Education & Professional Background
Doctor of Dental Surgery, University of Toronto
Dr. Zadov earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from the University of Toronto. Since then, her professional experience has spanned general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry.
Working across those areas has shaped how she plans treatment: a cosmetic result has to hold up functionally, and a restorative result has to look natural. Both are considered together rather than in isolation.
Additional professional memberships, continuing education, and credential details will be published here once confirmed by our office. We do not list credentials that have not been verified.
Approach to Patient Care
Clear communication and a long-term plan
Care begins with listening: what you want from your smile, what has shaped your past dental experiences, and what would make treatment feel manageable. Findings are explained with your own photos and scans, in plain language.
From there, treatment planning is personalized. Options are presented with their trade-offs, including the option to monitor rather than treat when that is reasonable, and the least invasive predictable approach is favored.
The goal is long-term care rather than one-time fixes, so decisions are made with an eye on how a smile will function and look years from now.
