Biography
Dr. Lauren Yasuda Rainey is a proud alumna of the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry. After receiving her dental degree, she completed a General Practice Residency at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. Her focus at Tufts was on advanced restorative techniques, including the use of surgical microscopes for restorative care, treating patients with complex medical needs and strengthening her skills by teaching in the undergraduate dental clinics. After residency training, Dr. Rainey began teaching at the Dugoni School of Dentistry in the Department of Reconstructive Dental Sciences and the Department of Dental Practice. She was involved in both lectures and hands-on coursework in teledentistry, pre-clinical restorative curriculum, and local anesthesia administration. Dr. Rainey continues to teach direct composite restorative programs including black triangle closures, predictable class II techniques and is an advocate for using composite resin for crown alternatives wherever possible. She has taught dentists in the US and Canada, both in-person and in virtual hands-on formats. Dr. Rainey was recently featured by the Seattle Study Club in their Expert Tips series. Dr. Rainey maintains a private practice in Berkeley, California where she developed and launched her own in-office membership program in 2018. She is active in mentorship and community building with her involvement with the Wellesley Club of Northern California, the Bioclear Alumni Network, and currently sits on the board of the Alumni Association at the Dugoni School of Dentistry. In her free time, you can find her outdoors in the Bay Area, mentoring young women interested in the health professions or whipping up a cake.
