Everything about orthodontics excites me and I knew this was my path in life since I began my own orthodontic treatment when I was 12. Its very rewarding to witness the progression of treatment and develop long-term relationships with my patients and their families.

I love transforming a persons smile and their oral health. Orthodontic care can increase a persons self-image and help them develop greater confidence in many areas of their life. When a person feels good about their smile, theyre more outgoing and likely to engage with others. They smile and laugh openly, and enjoy life more.

I truly enjoy how eager patients are to get started transforming their smiles, and how happy they are once they start seeing how their treatment is changing their appearance. I find myself getting excited with them.

I regularly attend the continuing education seminars put on by the American Association of Orthodontists, Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists, and the Southern Alameda County Dental Society. I actively seek out what is new in the field, and carefully review the scientific research before implementing any advancements in techniques. I pledge to treat each of my patients with the newest and proven techniques in order to release the beautiful smiles they deserve.

Im a native of Greenwood, IN, a small farming town outside Indianapolis. Currently, my wife Kara and I, along with our young daughters, Lucy and Emma, live in the East Bay. When not in the office, I try to spend as much time as I can with my family. Were enjoying all the fun activities this wonderful area offers

As an orthodontist, its my mission to provide the highest-quality orthodontic care available, combined with exceptional, personal service to each of my patients. I love creating healthy and beautiful smiles that improve the lives of people whove become my friends.

By combining the latest technologies and treatment methodologies, along with an eye for each persons unique aesthetics, I craft individual treatment plans for my patients. This ensures the most amazing results for each person, with healthy, straight teeth, great oral health, and an increase in confidence and self-esteem.

Its a pleasure to watch each patient transform as they move through the treatment process. As they begin to see the changes in their smile, they start to open up, talking and laughing more freely and no longer hiding their smiles. I know the care I provide means a healthier, happier life for my patients. Thats an amazing feeling.

Im a believer in continuing education: as a professional, its essential I remain current on developments in our field, so I can deliver the best care to my patients. By participating in courses and seminars, attending conferences, and staying abreast of the latest research findings, Im able to continually exceed my patients expectations.

The Bay Area is home to me. Its a pleasure to be raising my spirited young daughter, Natalie, here. We love experiencing and exploring all the activities and culture the area offers. We enjoy traveling, and adventuring in the outdoors.

I work with our new patients to coordinate treatment plans and financial arrangements. I try to always make myself available to answer any question you may have to make your time here as pleasant, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible. Getting to know our patients is the best part of my job, I love to know what is going on in their lives.

I am here to make sure the cost of your orthodontic treatment is somehting that is affordable and not a strain for you. Icall your insurance companies when necessary and follow-up to make sure everything proceeds as planned.I love meeting new people and helping them achieve their goals of a healthier, more beautiful smile.

Ive been in the orthodontic field since 2017 and have been with Dr. Sexton since 2019. I enjoy working with patients and making the retainers for their new smiles. Im from Southern Oregon but moved to the bay area after college. When Im not working, I enjoy watching movies, hiking, and spending time with my dog.

I started in the dental field relatively young at 16 years old, became certified a few years later. I took some time off to have my daughter and then jumped right back into doing what I love. I got so lucky when I came to this amazing office. I knew from my first day that this is what I can do for the rest of my life. Not only do I love the job itself, but I also love the team I have today with the amount of communication and teamwork. My favorite part of orthodontics is the patients postivity towards their new smiles and that I am able ot make a difference in their lives every day. In my space time I like spending time with my husand and our daughter, trying new food places, and spoiling her as much as possible.
