Although my formal education is complete, I am always very involved in continued education. I am currently participating in hands-on training at the Las Vegas Institute (LVI)whichconsists of several years of specialty courses. I chose to attend LVI because it teaches advanced principles of cosmetic dentistry and neuromuscular dentistry, which aremore advanced than the knowledge I obtained in dental school.
This kindof dentistry attainsthe highest quality and aesthetics, and I am also learning advanced concepts in TMD therapy. I havebeen certified in oral sedation and ACLS so I canalways make sure that fearful patients can be treated comfortably.
I love being able to help people feel better, both physically and emotionally. Peoples smiles can often define them, and I want everyone to know they can have a beautiful smile and the confidence that comes with it. I also love the way that dentistry is always changing, and that each person is unique and challenging.
