Welcome to Dentistry with Smiles |
Confidence in Your DentistIn my opinion confidence in a professional is earned. Confidence is founded in integrity. I treat every tooth, every person as though it were my sister, my friend, my dad. What are the treatment options available? What are the relative costs/benefits? What would I do in this particular situation? My job is to diagnose, educate and inform. Beyond that, the treatment decisions are yours. I never consider myself a salesman, but an instead, an educator. This is the foundation of my practice and how I build relationships with my patients based on integrity and trust. |
CraftsmanshipWhen work lifts your spirits and inspires bold and noble thoughts in you, do not look for any other standard to judge by: the work is good, the product of a master craftsman.
- Jean de la Bruyere I admire craftsmen and work very hard to consider myself a craftsman in my profession. I believe craftsmanship requires mastery of ones chosen materials and armamentarium. I have been actively involved the last several years in the Seattle Study Club which emphasizes diagnostic skills and technical excellence. I consider every appointment an opportunity to showcase my skills and to provide a lasting, comfortable, beautiful, functional service. Stories From Behind The SmilesIt's easy to take a smile for granted, unless you're self-conscious about yours. In that case, you may spend more time and thought on hiding your smile than enjoying the moment. Natural imperfections, accidental damage, or food stains have always caused embarrassment and social anxiety. We love to hear stories from our patients when changing their smile has changed their life. |
