Dr. Michelle Sarno

Dr. Sarno grew up in San Diego, California and obtained her undergraduate degree from San Diego State University. Through an Army Health Professions Scholarship she earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Columbia University College of Dental Medicine in New York City. After graduation, she was commissioned as an Officer in the Army Dental Corps serving in Georgia and Iraq. Treating our servicemembers with endodontic procedures that kept them pain free, impacted her calling to specialize in Endodontics. She was accepted into the U.S. Army Advanced Education Program in Endodontics at Fort Gordon, Georgia where she received her Endodontics Certificate. Honorably discharged from the Army after 10 years of active service in Georgia, Oklahoma, and overseas, she has since enjoyed being in clinical private practice.


Dr. Sarno is a member of the American Association of Endodontics and is a scientific advisory board member for the Journal of Endodontics. She has been a volunteer provider in multiple Dental Mission of Mercy community events in different states. She is a life-long learner dedicated to providing individualized, quality, and compassionate care to all of her patients. Her and her family are thrilled to return home to southern California after supporting her husband’s Army career as well. They are proud parents to 2 boys. Outside the office you will find her making memories with her family exploring local surrounding areas and abroad.
