Sabina Floridia is a Dental Hygienist with nearly 30 years of international experience across clinical care, education, and professional development. She has worked in the Netherlands, South America, and Italy, where she currently resides and is passionate about helping dental professionals grow not only clinically, but also through empowerment and personal growth.
She serves as Global Project Manager for two major initiatives at Curaden AG and is an iTOP Instructor and Lecturer. Sabina has trained thousands of dental professionals and students worldwide, including at universities about mechanical biofilm control, offering practical and inspiring education grounded in real-life experience.
As a BOB-App Specialist, she supports dental teams in using digital tools to boost patient motivation and improve clinical outcomes. Her work combines clinical precision with powerful communication strategies to drive long-term behavioural change.
In 2018, Sabina launched Italy’s first online challenge for dental hygienists, Happy After Every Patient, helping colleagues rediscover passion and purpose in their daily work. This success inspired her to deepen her studies in personal growth, becoming a certified Life Coach and Mindfulness Facilitator.
She is an international speaker, co-author of the book Happy Dental Professional Method, and co-host of the accompanying podcast. Her message is simple yet powerful: happiness at work is not a luxury, it’s a necessity. By investing in our own mindset and development, we create more balance, meaning, and joy in every clinical setting.
In 2019, she developed a cartoon-based school prevention program for children aged 4–16. Now available worldwide thanks to Curaden AG, this program helps promote oral health education in a fun and engaging way.
Sabina lectures at international congresses and courses, speaking on topics such as oral health, self-care, the paediatric patient, personal growth, and professional well-being. Since completing her iTOP Teacher and Lecturer certifications, she has delivered training at renowned universities including San Raffaele Vita-Salute Milan, University of Milano-Bicocca, and the University of Ferrara, sharing the iTOP philosophy (Individually Trained Oral Prophylaxis) and promoting excellence in daily prevention.
I aim to inspire dental professionals trough personal growth, helping them stay passionate, engaged and empowered.
