Typically, these bios contain a history of schooling and hobbies. While that information may be interesting, I would prefer to make a connection through sharing why I am passionate about dentistry. I know that it can be hard to choose a new dentist. Let me tell you why I am different and why it matters that you trust me to help you maintain optimal oral health. 

I did not take the typical path to dentistry. Originally, I wanted to be an artist. I wanted to create beauty that would inspire and question the way people look at the world. Because of the demands of family life, I felt a need to pursue something else, something that was a little more predictable. After serious research and shadowing, I finally made the decision to pursue dentistry. That decision could not have been more perfect for me. I never understood how the hand skills gained through art could translate to dentistry, and I approach every procedure that I perform with these skills. 

Even the smallest filling should be looked at as its own masterpiece. While I still sculpt and find fulfillment in the art I produce, the greatest artwork I have been able to create are some of the teeth I have been able to rehabilitate. I take pride in the smiles I have been able to transform and the lives have been able to change. 

One of the biggest tragedies I see is people’s dental anxiety. While dentistry has changed significantly in recent history, many people I see have lingering bad memories from past experiences with dentists. I have two children with disabilities. Society calls them disabilities, but I see them more as opportunities to learn and grow. One son has autism, which makes him acutely sensitive to everything. Those challenges have allowed me to see things in a more personal way. Helping him with his dental care has improved my ability to treat all my patients. Anesthetic may not seem like a big deal to some people. I treat it like it is a big deal to everyone. The biggest compliment I can receive is that my patient did not feel the shot. The biggest win I can experience in a day is to hear that someone was petrified of the dentist and I was able to make that experience less scary. I feel it is my responsibility to be the kindest, gentlest care giver when you show the trust in me to help you with an issue that you cannot solve yourself. 

My commitment to you is to provide the most current, most technologically advanced and highest quality dentistry you can receive. We get one body and 32 teeth. As we learn more, we find out how critical the health of our mouth is to our overall health. Because of that fact, I cannot compromise my care based on what your insurance is willing to pay. We have conflicting views on what is best for you. They want to make as much money as they can with little regard for your health. I want to provide optimal health, and yes, I get paid for it; for me to be the best I can be, I need the best education and most current technology to do that. I realize that this point is not addressed enough. It is expected that the best care will be given. 

Unfortunately, that is not the case and dentists compromise quality for quantity to try to close the gap in earnings. I will treat you like a human being rather than a number. I will advise you of options and their benefits and disadvantages. You are the most important part of your treatment. 

Lastly, I am humbled by the people I get to serve. I love what I do. I am passionate about beautiful and healthy teeth. I hope that I have conveyed that. 

Ultimately, I want to leave a positive impression on as many people as I can. I hope that if you have taken the time to read this that you are that next person.
