Dr Fabiana’s research includes a study examining airway morphology and its relationship to obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), BMI, and surgical intervention.
Dr Fabiana’s work highlighted the importance of multidisciplinary assessment in managing OSA, and that airway structure alone does not reliably predict disease severity or surgical outcomes. It reinforced her clinical interest in airway health as one of multiple factors considered in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.
Patients value her calm, thoughtful approach, strong attention to detail, and the time she takes to understand each individual’s needs. Her focus is on delivering carefully planned treatment that achieves healthy, natural-looking, and long-lasting results for patients of all ages.
Dr Fabiana is passionate about helping people feel confident in their smiles and finds great satisfaction in seeing the lasting impact orthodontic treatment can have on a patient’s life.
