Coming from a family of dentists that includedmy father, I have been involved in the science of dentistry since high school, whenI would assist in my Dads office as a lab tech and assistant during summer breaks. This training led to my fellow dental students teasing that I was born with dentures in my hands.
My interest and passion for the science of dental medicine has not wavered since those days. In fact, they havegrown tremendously to encompass comprehensive state-of-the-art aesthetic and functional dental patient care.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
