'I have alwayshad many interests within the field of dentistry ranging frompediatrics to geriatrics, androot canals to fabrication of dentures. This led me to pursue a career in general dentistrywhere I can implement each interest into everyday practice. While I share a love for all aspects of general dentistry,I have a particular passion for both cosmetic and sports dentistry.With cosmetics, I love to see the transformation that takes place within patients not only with the happiness thatthe new appearance of their smile brings to them, but also with the internal boost to their self-esteem.The visibleincrease in their self-esteem during thistransformation is an invaluable reward that is truly humbling.With sports dentistry, I aimto combine mylove for sports anddentistry together by helping young athletes maintain a happy and healthy smile.' - Dr. Sarah Clark
