Dr Giedre Uze

With over a decade of dedicated study and clinical experience, my journey in dentistry began with a BSc in Dental Hygiene, followed by an MSc in Dentistry at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences and Rīga Stradiņš University. I’ve since completed a Mastership in Biomimetic Dentistry at the Alleman Center and currently pursuing a residency in Prosthodontics. In addition to long-term clinical practice, I lecture at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, educate dentists worldwide, and I am proud to be the founder of UZE Academy. Dentistry runs in my blood — I’m a third generation dentist, continuing a proud family legacy.
