I love orthodontics and find tremendous fulfillment in seeing the positive impact it has on the lives of my patients. Orthodontics can create beautiful smiles and aesthetically pleasing faces; more importantly, it can also change a personality. I have seen so many patients become more outgoing, enthusiastic, and self-confident as a result of orthodontic treatment!
As an orthodontist, I am passionate about helping my patients become their best selves, and I really believe a great smile can help a person achieve that. When my patients are confident in their smiles, they become more confident in themselves.
After nearly 20 years of practicing orthodontics, I can honestly say I still look forward to each day in the office. I chose the profession because I enjoy helping others and am a problem solver: I focus on the minute details of each person’s situation, so they achieve the perfect result of a stable, functional, and attractive smile.
