“As a young dentist, the profession was so much about the science of diagnosis, treating dental diseases, and restoring teeth and function with the knowledge of techniques and materials. This is still critical, but with each new patient I meet, I believe the more important challenge has become the discussion and education of each person's oral condition and their dental and general health. I have had the pleasure of talking with so many unique people and have learned to treat them according to their individual needs. It is my hope that we have helped our patients to enjoy coming to their dental appointments with a smile on their faces.”
