Having a healthy smile, one you know looks incredible, can change your life. Smiles are the first thing we notice when we meetsomeone new: making a good first impression is important. As a dentist, I help people improve their oral health and their smile, which leads to an increase in each persons self-esteem and confidence.
I have been practicing dentistry for 25 years and am humbled by the friendships Ive made. My patients are remarkable people and I look forward to hearing their latest news. As a family-friendly dental office, we serve everyone, which keeps my days varied. I love providing a positive, fun first visit for a child, as well as meeting the needs of my next patient.
My undergraduate degree is from Ohio Northern University. My Doctorate of Dental Surgery was awarded by The Ohio State University where I also completed a General Practice Residency. That education gave me an excellent foundational knowledge of the field. However, dentistry is always evolving: new techniques, materials, and technologies are constantly being developed. As a dentist committed to providing the best care options for my patients, I stay current with these changes.
I complete many continuing dental education courses each year. I attend local, regional, and nationalseminars. I also read scholarly journals to stay informed of research and new approaches to treatment.
I grew up in Manchester (New Franklin), Ohio andcurrently livein Uniontown. Im happily married, have two wonderful children, and two dogs. When Im not caring for patients, I enjoy time with family, working out, baking, movies, and vacationing with family and friends.
