Friendship, dedication, and a shared passion for helping others brought Dr. Demian and Dr. Nastase together—from dental school in Romania to opening their dream practice here in Chicago. Together, they bring warmth, experience, and a commitment to providing exceptional care for every patient.
I believe everyone deserves a healthy, confident smile—and as your dentist, I’m here to help you achieve it. I was born in Romania, where I first earned my dental degree in 2006. After moving to the U.S. in 2008, I continued working in the dental field and later graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago’s Advanced Standing Program in 2017.
I stay current with the latest advancements in dentistry through continuing education and am an active member of the American Dental Association and the Chicago Dental Society.
Fluent in Romanian, I’m proud to serve a diverse community. Outside the office, I enjoy spending quality time with my child and family.
Let me, Dr. Demian, introduce my best friend and business partner, Dr. Dorina Nastase, DMD. We share not only the same passion for dentistry but also the same journey. We met in dental school in Romania, where our friendship and a shared dream were born—to one day open a dental practice together.
That dream became a reality in March 2017, when we proudly opened Blue Star Dental. Dr. Dorina graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2015 through the same Advanced Standing Program I completed. She continues to stay at the forefront of dentistry by actively participating in continuing education courses.
She speaks Romanian and Spanish, and in her free time, she enjoys caring for her beloved pet and volunteering her time to help animals in need.
Step into a space designed with your comfort in mind. At Gold Star Dental, we’ve created a welcoming, modern environment where patients of all ages feel at ease. From our state-of-the-art equipment to our calming treatment rooms, every detail is centered around providing you with the best dental experience possible.
