Mission and values
I aim to provide the highest level of care possible to my patients. As more and more research reveals the links between oral health and total health, it is becoming increasingly clear that the mouth and its constituents cannot be treated as being separate from the rest of the body, but rather must be taken in context. It behooves all healthcare providers to remember this, and to be cognizant of a patient’s general well-being.
More specifically, research has also documented the importance of periodontal health as a foundation to all other dental care. Whether a person needs a simple filling, a crown, a bridge, an implant or anything else involving teeth, in order to ensure the best longevity of the proposed treatment, periodontal health must be maintained, and a major goal for me is to create awareness and sensitize my patients to this often-underappreciated necessity.
Finally, the best part about being a specialist is the team of top-notch providers I get to work with on a daily basis. The cases which are most likely to succeed are the ones where every member of the team is striving to manage their responsibility toward the patient to the best of their abilities. My most inspired moments treating patients are when each team member has gone the extra mile to achieve an excellent outcome, and the patient’s expectations have been surpassed.
