About
Polina Feldman
The Russian Dentist · TeethTeacher founder
I write about clinical training, public health, and oral health education—for readers who deserve clarity before pain.
I believe most dental problems are preventable long before they hurt. I founded TeethTeacher to bring clinical education to readers who want to understand their oral health early—while prevention still has room to work.

Biography
Full story
In my own words, from the hand before the words to dentistry across borders.
I'm a Pavlov University dental graduate and the founder of TeethTeacher. I write practical articles on oral health, clinical training, and patient care.
I earned a full scholarship to Pavlov First Saint Petersburg State Medical University, trained across general dentistry, surgery, prosthodontics, and orthodontics, and led student organizing while assisting in clinic. When the path to practicing in Russia narrowed, I moved to Bangkok, and survived the strongest earthquake in the city's recorded history, without letting go of dentistry.
I founded TeethTeacher.com to change a culture that waits for pain before seeking care. In the United States I shadow Dr. Shidmand, volunteer in Tarzana, and passed the INBDE and TOEFL on my first attempt, still moving toward the moment a patient looks in the mirror and finally lets the smile escape.
