Speaker Bio
Edmonton born and raised, Dr. Cable received a Bachelor of Science Degree, with honours from the University of Alberta in 1992. She went directly from graduating with a DDS with distinction from the University of Alberta in 1997 to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota for Prosthodontic and Maxillofacial Prosthodontic specialty training completed in 2001. She is the second Canadian to have completed training in this program. There are only two training programs in this field in North America – the other is a post specialty program at MD Anderson. The residency is four years in duration and only one resident is accepted every two years.
Her training covered the following areas by world renowned specialists: Anatomy, Biostatistics, Dental Materials, Dental Laboratory Techniques, Orofacial Pain, Medical Oncology, Oral Diagnosis, Otorhinolaryngologic Surgery, and Radiation and Medical Oncology. This is in addition to conventional and advanced Removable, Fixed and Maxillofacial Prosthodontics. The majority of the patients seen in these clinics were seeking second and more professional opinions on extremely complex and life threatening clinical situations. They travelled from around the world and were at points of complete exasperation. She has seen patients with devastating life situations and have helped them function and achieve results they did not think possible. For that she is incredibly grateful.
Dr. Cable is a board certified specialist in Prosthodontics (Fellow of the Royal College of Dentists of Canada – obtained at the first possible opportunity after her specialty education was completed) – with advanced training in Maxillofacial Prosthodontics. The mission of The Royal College of Dentists of Canada is to maintain the high standards of practice of the recognized dental specialties by examining qualified candidates for admission to Fellowship in the College and by working with stakeholders to establish standards for dental specialty education, practice and certification. In addition, Dr. Cable works for the Provincial Government of Alberta on a dental consultant basis.
