Q: What makes you different from other dentists?
A: I prioritize patient education and preventative care. I spend a lot of time educating patients on their oral health and treatment needs through detailed intraoral photos and digital scans, empowering them to take proactive steps. By showing patients areas of concern alongside healthy ones, I strive to motivate them to prevent issues, reducing their time in the dental chair while keeping their smiles bright and healthy.
Q: What is unique about your practice?
A: We offer the warmth and familiarity of a small-town dental office in the heart of a bustling metropolis. This practice has served the Arlington area since the 1950s. Our team doesn’t just know our patients but also their children, parents, grandparents, siblings, in-laws, friends and more! Such a longstanding connection with the community fosters a genuine sense of neighborhood family among our team and valued patients.
Q: What’s an example of a time when you helped a patient that you’re particularly proud of?
A: After seeing my grandparents live with dementia, Alzheimer’s and memory loss, I am deeply honored when families entrust me with the care of their vulnerable family members. I spend quality time with each of them, aiming to brighten their day. While they may not remember our conversations, I hope they remember feeling cherished and well looked after. I also absolutely love transforming smiles through Invisalign, building patients’ confidence while promoting healthier teeth. Witnessing the positive impact on patients’ perception of themselves in pictures and daily interactions is incredibly rewarding.
