My focus

Caring for every child, whatever their needs

I see children from birth to 18: check-ups and cleanings, fillings and crowns, and the everyday habits that keep teeth healthy.

I also specialize in caring for children with special healthcare needs, including autism. It’s the care other dentists and physicians refer to me for, and our team is trained and equipped for it. For cleanings and treatment I can use nitrous oxide (laughing gas), a mild sedative that helps children relax while they stay awake.
