As a patient, its important to realize that there are different approaches to dentistry. One can either view the mouth as a collection of individual teeth, or as an 'organ' to be treated and cared for, as a whole.
Dr. Poonam B. Wadhwani practices the latter. She understands that an integrated approach significantly improves the long-term health of your mouth. She emphasizes that one should not view dental wellness as disconnected from total body wellness.
In order to best support her patients, Dr. Wadhwani actively stays current on the most recent developments in dentistry. She is a graduate of the Kois Center; a top teaching institute in Seattle that attracts dentists from all over the world. The Kois Center provides dentists with predictable, evidence-based dental systems that enable them to deliver the highest level of patient care.
Dr. Wadhwani believes that good dentistry doesn't have to be impersonal. She provides professional service in an environment that is warm and inviting. At Serene Dental, visits focus on prevention and risk management to maintain health.
Keegan is the super hero of our office. He runs the business end of Serene Dental. He is the kind, calming voice you hear most often when you call. In his spare time, when he is not wearing his cape to keep us running smoothly, you may find him on his bike on a rugged trail or mesmerized by his albino python. Keegan is a people person and loves getting too know you. He strives to make everyone he meets smile, because a SMILE can change your entire day.
