Haute Beauty: What inspired you to create a platform where dental work, Botox, and fillers are all in the same conversation?
A competent cosmetic dentist can do a great job at making teeth look great and giving people a healthy and beautiful smile. The desire for Esthetic dentistry has been on an absolute boom over the last few years especially when it comes to such innovative techniques as teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding, and ceramic veneer smile makeovers.
Now that the teeth look great, what about the perioral areas around the mouth? If the smile looks great but we ignore the rest of the face, then we have really limited what we have done in esthetic dentistry. Imagine putting the Mona Lisa in a tattered and broken old frame. Taking the frame of the smile into account with my smile makeovers allows for harmony, symmetry, and a truly beautiful and younger smile.
HB: When did you realize cosmetic dentistry is more than just dental work?
Seeing the monumental positive changes that a new smile can deliver to another human being time after time continues to have such an impactful effect on how I see and practice cosmetic dentistry. Yes, it involves dental work, but it also needs artistry and personalized touches for each and every individual patient.

HB: How do aesthetics transform someone's life?
Simply put, aesthetics make us happy. On an emotional level, they elicit feelings of happiness and calm. They connect us to our ability to reflect on and appreciate the world around us. Feeling good about the way one looks and feels delivers tremendous confidence to that person and to those around them.
HB: What is your #1 piece of advice to those seeking self-confidence?
Much of self-confidence comes from within. Trying to stay positive and turning negative thoughts into positive ones takes practice and is a challenge to many but is well worth the exercise. Feeling good about your image and presentation is another way to develop strong self-confidence. Dressing well, proper grooming, and keeping your body healthy with proper food choices, skincare, and staying away from vices. Creating and maintaining a younger healthier look is now easier than ever with non-invasive treatments that can help you feel your best self and boost your self-confidence as well. In my field of cosmetic dentistry, examples would include: teeth whitening, botox, fillers, Evoke Jowl and chin skin tightening, and smile makeovers.
