is an industry leader and champion for airway in dentistry. She received her doctorate from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 1996 and completed a General Practice Residency at the VA Hospital in Loma Linda, CA. Her expertise and passion for education has helped build her private practice in Scottsdale, AZ not only centering around restorative dentistry but also sleep apnea, TMD and airway-focused dentistry. She is a Diplomate for American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine and a fellow for American Academy of Craniofacial Pain. She actively participates in research for sleep apnea for both adults and children. She has contributed to dental journals, podcasts, blogs and is an international speaker on oral health and airway. Her hope is that parents and health care professionals will continue to collaborate with each other and seek ways to treat our patients and their families more effectively.
Because of her own experiences with her 3 boys, she is passionate about helping babies, children, and adults to promote a healthy airway through sleep, myofunctional therapy, laser dentistry and interceptive orthodontics. She is also an adjunct professor at Midwestern Dental Institute and Key Opinion Leader for several companies in dentistry.
