Professional Statement
I have a developed a special interest in the surgical aspects of dentistry, including wisdom tooth removal and implant therapy. It’s rewarding to be called upon to perform difficult extractions, to eliminate dental pain, and to help restore a patient’s function with dental implants. I also work with sleep physicians in the treatment of sleep apnea by fabricating custom dental appliances (instead of a CPAP) which are covered by medical insurance.
Personal
I enjoy rock climbing, basketball, and a wide array of music. My wife is also a dentist and when we are not discussing dentistry, we love to travel and care for our four sons.
