Dr. Sheema Samarrae
Doctor of Dental Surgery
Dr. Sheema Samarrae, DDS“We take care of you like we would our own family members.”
Meet Dr. Sheema Samarrae - Teal Umbrella Dentist
Dr. Sheema Samarrae is an internationally trained dentist, graduated in 1998 with a degree in Dental Medicine and Oral Surgery from the University of Baghdad in Iraq. Working between Baghdad and Dubai and then moving to Canada, Dr. Samarrae graduated with a degree in Doctor of Dental Surgery from Schulich Dental School at the University of Western Ontario in 2008.
She is a member of the Canadian Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, The International Team for Implantology, The International Association of Orthodontics and a Fellow of the American Dental Implant Association. Dr. Samarrae is highly dedicated for ongoing education to acquire new knowledge and experience in order to offer her patients the best dental healthcare possible. She was able to collect more than 1,800 CE courses in the past few years from highly accredited institutes like Toronto Implant Institute, Pikos Implant Institute, Misch International Implant Institute, Pankey Institute, Kois Center, Digital Smile Design Residency and many more.
Dr. Samarrae is also keen toward helping the community and other dentists to provide excellent services in Implant and other restorative dentistry by providing mentoring and training courses to other dentists. The staff of The Teal Umbrella knows her as a smiley, humble and easy going person. She works hard to help her patients maintain good oral health. She is compassionate, and works to put the needs of her patients first and foremost.
When she isn’t at The Teal Umbrella, Sheema can be found at home with her three children. She loves and enjoys art and hand crafting.
Just had two appointments over the last few weeks and could not be happier with the experience. I'd had some lingering tooth pain that had gone undiagnosed/unresolved at previous offices, but Dr. Anita finally realized I had several cavities that needed to be filled. I was naturally nervous to go back for my first ever fillings, but between Stevie, Elizabeth, and Dr. Anita (and some help from the gas they offer to anxious patients) it went more quickly and smoothly than expected! They were even able to do all three without any freezing.

Experience Hassle-Free Dental Care That Fits You at The Teal Umbrella
I had a really great experience with Dr Samarrae and her staff, during my last visit. As usual, she is very professional but also treats her patients like family. Thank you Dr Samarrae and thank you to all the support staff and other dentists.
The Teal Umbrella is by far the best dental care I have ever experienced. From the front desk service to the wonderful Dr. Samarrae and her Invisalign team - everything is just perfect. I have never once been kept waiting and I find that very respectful. My whole family has followed me to the Teal Umbrella and I would highly recommend it to everyone.
Dr. Abi Azar is a wonderful, super professional doctor. She founds the best solution for you teeth. She cares about you and your best treatment. I trust her so much and I am sure she is not looking at my mouth as a business. Moreover, all the staff and receptionist are so kind and caring. Highly recommend this center.
For the past 12 years, I visited 4 dentist - clinics & this office my 5th one. Mostly of them have excellent customer service but this clinic it's Dr. Shaimaa Samraa who makes all the difference, she has that passion about the profession, it's not a job, No, it's way more than that for her. I saw this drive since first I met her. She care, understand, excellent on what she does & respect her patients choices without pushing for implants.
I would like to give a big thank for Dr. Abi Azar for her excellent service, she’s very experienced, patient, attentive and professional, during the appointment she took a lot of time with my 7 yrs old son explaining to him about the procedure to make sure that he’s happy and comfortable, for the next month I’ll take my younger son too as I strongly recommend her, the stuff are very helpful and professional too, the place is very clean. Thank you Teal umbrella team :)
The Teal Umbrella Family Dental Healthcare offers an outstanding patient experience. The team's commitment (Andrea, Mary, Rabi, and Dr. Samarrae) to patient comfort and their collaborative spirit create a welcoming and effective environment. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of dental care.
The visit was like flying first class. Treated politely and professionally by all staff and the dentist. Procedure went without a complication at all, dentist explained everything that was going to happen and offered as much comfort as possible. To ensure it was like a first class trip, a hot towel was offered at the end of the visit to 'freshen up' . Absolutely top care, so good, ensured that my most precious little girl attends regularly to build up the 'never fear the dentist' feeling. Added the most recent trip...Very friendly, easy to discuss the issues and work done in a very friendly, professional manner by both Dentist and Assistant. This was for my 7 year old girl and they fully informed me on all that needed to be done, kept her engaged, never talked down to her ( treated her like an adult ) and fully gave me all the options involved in the procedure. Daughter came through it with all work done to minimise time off from school. I go to Teal and they do everything right, and have no issues in having them treat my most precious little one.
