1. What are you most proud of about your practice?

   Helping change our patients’ lives. Not having teeth, or having teeth that are loose, is demoralizing. We can help restore their ability to function and be social. It improves their lives, as well as their smiles.

2. How do you manage patient expectations?

   I focus on clear communication and collaborative decision-making. It’s important to understand each patient’s expectations.

3. What new services are you excited to offer?

   We’re becoming more digital in our practice with intraoral scanners and 3-D printing. These technologies allow us to take digital impressions and improve the accuracy of our work.

4. What is your best patient advice?

   An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It’s important to stay on top of dental health and address issues early. Regular checkups and proper oral hygiene are keys to a healthy smile.
