By finding the root causes of disease, she is better able to make holistic recommendations to help guide you and your family to optimal health!

"My biggest goal with a child is not necessarily their tooth and the filling and what they need dentally, but it's more 'what is their experience going to be like here?'"

• Avoiding the uncomfortable feeling children experience at the dentist
