Meet Our Team
Dr. Irena Starchenko has dedicated her life to dentistry. She was born in Ukraine and attended the Kharkiv National Medical University, graduating in 1993.
After graduation, Dr. Starchenko began practicing as a general dentist and went on to receive her master’s degree in orthodontics in 1999. After 24 years of practicing in Ukraine, the family made a decision to make a permanent move to the US. Here, Dr. Starchenko chose The University of Southern California to earn her next degree, the Doctor of Dental Surgery, from Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry at USC. She has been a practicing dentist since 2020 when she completed her degree.
The combination of her general dentistry, dental surgery, and orthodontic knowledge allows her to design and create healthy, beautiful smiles for her patients.
We’re thrilled to have Dr. Gabrielle as part of our team at Dental Line! Patients love her warm, friendly approach and the way she makes every visit feel comfortable and stress-free. She believes that dentistry is not just about healthy smiles, but also about building trust and creating a positive experience for everyone who walks through our doors.
Dr. Gabrielle earned her undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley before completing dental school at the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco. She then completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) program at UCLA, where she gained extensive experience with the latest techniques and treatments to provide her patients with the highest quality of care.
She enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and is passionate about creating personalized treatment plans that help patients feel confident about their oral health. Whether it’s a routine cleaning, cosmetic enhancement, or restorative procedure, Dr. Gabrielle takes the time to listen, explain, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.
When she’s not caring for patients, you’ll often find Dr. Gabrielle enjoying the outdoors — going on long walks, hiking, spending time at the beach, or practicing pilates and yoga. She loves being in nature and finds balance in an active, healthy lifestyle.
We’re so lucky to have Dr. Gabrielle on our team, and we know you’ll love meeting her just as much as we have!
