Report
I was born in Wildcat country, also known as central Kentucky in the city of Lexington. I moved to Charlotte in 2000, after surviving the 1999 Y2K fears. I didn't enjoy my electrical engineering major and decided to follow my dreams into some area of medicine/ healthcare and dentistry was the best fit for me.

Pediatric Dental FAQs
Report
Below are common questions and our answers about the best way to care for children's teeth. We recommend that you make an appointment to see the dentist as soon as your child gets their first tooth. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children be seen by six months after their first tooth erupts, or at one year of age, whichever comes first.

Report
A child's first visit to the dentist should be enjoyable. Children are not born with a natural fear of the dentist, but they can fear the unknown. Our office makes a special effort to use pleasant, non-frightening, simple words to describe each treatment. We want you and your child to feel at ease from the moment your family arrives at our office.
