Catherine Zacal

Dr. Zacal graduated from the University of Toronto faculty of Dentistry in 2001. After selling her "from scratch" successful, solo dental practice in Huntsville in 2022, and while commuting to Parry Sound to work as an associate, she expanded her interest in Dental Sleep Medicine and its effects on the natural and restored dentition. This came about from witnessing first-hand how undiagnosed or uncontrolled sleep related breathing disorders can negatively affect the oral cavity. She became a Diplomate of the American Academy of Dental Sleep medicine and provides oral appliance therapy for sleep apnea in Parry Sound and in Huntsville, where she recently opened a two operatory dental office inside a new build home. TMD therapy and orofacial pain are a natural extension of dental sleep medicine and she is currently pursuing a master's degree in Orofacial Pain with Dr Daniele Manfredini.
