Dr. Febe Kuo

Dr. Febe, as you are welcome to call her, enjoys every patient’s journey to a straighter, glowing smile. It is her lifelong passion to help patients achieve their dream smile. Dr. Febe is originally from the tropical island of Taiwan, a paradise for foodies everywhere. She obtained her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) as one of the top in her class from China Medical University in her hometown of Central Taiwan and completed her internship at National Cheng Kung University in Southern Taiwan. After graduation, she worked as a general dentist. In her heart, she felt the need to be somewhere else. That adventurous spirit brought her to Winnipeg, where she completed a three-year Orthodontic residency and obtained her Master's Degree in Orthodontics (M.Sc.) at the University of Manitoba. Here, she had the chance to train with brilliant fellow residents from around the world. The training program at the U of M is unparalleled, and she collaborated with world-class researchers and Orthodontists. From them, she learned a wide range of orthodontic philosophies and treatment approaches, including fixed orthodontics utilizing twin or self-ligating brackets, Invisalign® clear aligners, combined surgical and orthodontic treatments, cleft palate treatments, early intervention in mixed dentition, and the use of different functional appliances. Her patients ranged in age from 8 to 80. This was a rewarding and inspiring experience that equipped her with the skills to make a meaningful impact in the lives of her patients. Dr. Febe has found her new home in the heart of Canada, where she relishes both the stunning summer and the lengthy yet soothing winter. Outside of her practice, she keeps herself occupied by running after her two very active babies. On top of that, she enjoys experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen alongside her wonderful husband – even if it gets a bit messy. They also love taking walks on the beautiful trails across the city, but only when the temperature is above -25°C.
