I grew up in London, KY home of the World Chicken Festival! My husband Adam, my daughter Amelia, my son Jameson, and I have recently moved to Northern Kentucky from Lexington; we are loving exploring a new area, going to Reds games, playing at Silverlake, swimming, and playing golf so far! My family has a 14-year-old dachshund named Frankie. We love going to the Cincinnati Zoo and feeding the giraffes. And we are huge fans of the famous Fiona the hippo!
While new to the community, I am not new to dentistry. I graduated from the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry in 2009. I practiced general dentistry for two years with my father in his practice in London, KY. It was during that time that I realized my love for working with children. I was so grateful for the opportunity to complete my residency in Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Kentucky in 2013 and treated children in Lexington, KY for 6 years.
We are so grateful for the incredible staff at Young Smiles Pediatric Dentistry. Each member of our team is focused on one goal: Caring for the children we serve. This group of dedicated professionals LOVES working with children!
Maggi grew up just down the road in Alexandria. When shes not cuddling her chocolate lab Gus, she loves going with her fianc to grab tacos at Montoyas in Fort Mitchell and then heading to the AMC Newport on the Levee to catch a Disney movie. Maggi says that if she had one superpower it would be to fly, but we believe that she already has an out-of-this-world ability to make children smile.
Denises life is all about kids. Not only does she love working with our patients, but she also gets plenty of practice spending time with her five grandchildrenand an active labradoodle name Bowie.
