Dr. Jafari, DDS

Dr. Jafari earned her DDS from West Virginia University in 1996 and holds advanced certifications in orthodontics and implant dentistry. For more than 25 years she has cared for Northern Virginia families — gently, honestly, and at your pace.

A woman-owned practice, our office welcomes patients in both English and Farsi, so you can ask every question and understand every answer in the language you’re most comfortable with.

Your smile deserves a dentist who listens, takes her time, and gives you honest answers — not a rushed exam and a stack of upsells. At Inova Dental Clinic, Dr. Jafari and her team have been doing exactly that for patients across Sterling and Northern Virginia for more than 25 years.

About Inova Dental Clinic in Sterling, VA

Dr. Jafari earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from West Virginia University and has spent nearly three decades refining one thing: care that’s genuinely patient-centered. She offers unhurried exams, honest treatment recommendations, and plans built around your goals and your budget. Anxious patient? First visit in years? You’ll find the same gentle, judgment-free welcome here.

Inova is a whole-family practice — we see patients as young as two, and we’re glad to have grown up with many of the families we serve. Whatever you need, from a routine cleaning to a smile makeover to a same-day emergency appointment, you’ll find it under one roof with a team that already knows your name.

As a Farsi (Persian)- and English-speaking practice, we’re proud to serve Sterling’s diverse community. Every step of your visit — from questions about your treatment to insurance paperwork — can be handled in Farsi or English. Members of our team also speak Spanish.

Do you see children?

We welcome patients starting at age two. Bringing the whole family to one practice makes it easier to stay on top of everyone’s care, and kids tend to feel more at ease when they see a parent comfortable in the chair.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Bring a valid photo ID, your insurance card, and any recent dental X-rays if you have them. Arrive a few minutes early to complete your new-patient paperwork — or ask us to send it ahead of time so you can fill it out at home.
