My
practice philosophy is ''Dentistry is my profession but people are my focus''.
As a child I always knew I belonged to the healthcare industry. Growing up I
saw my father as my greatest inspiration. Being a physician, he would always
alleviate people's problems and hence made a huge impact in their lives. I
always wanted to carry his legacy. When I was sixteen, I was impressed when my
orthodontist transformed my smile and changed the way the world looked at me. I
felt this profession will let me take care of people in a special way and also
make a big difference in their lives.
I
graduated with a DDS degree from the prestigious UCSF School of Dentistry in
2005. Thereafter I have worked at multiple dental offices in the bay area for
seven years. I have completed a residency program in full mouth Reconstruction
and Aesthetic Dentistry from Esthetic Professionals, LA in 2012. There I
received advanced training in porcelain work such as inlays, onlays, veneers
and crowns. I can also recreate the bite if the teeth are worn off. I am a
member of American Dental Association, California Dental Association and Contra
Costa Dental Society. I am also in the process of getting my fellowship from
the Academy of General Dentistry.
I believe
in constant improvisation and like to stay abreast with the latest techniques
and technologies. We are state of the art office with complete digitalization
to help patients co-diagnose what we see, so they can make informed decisions
about their teeth. We use the STA system for local anesthesia, which is a computer
controlled delivery system that enhances patient's comfort level.
I believe
dentistry is an art which is best performed in a stress free environment. At
Ivory Smiles we have created the dynamics of great service with fine dentistry.
We treat each of our patients with the care they need. I welcome you to check
our office where we can confidently say ''our service is our pride''.
In
my free time, I love to spend time with my husband and our nine year old
daughter. I also love swimming, hiking and traveling to new places.
