Number of years you’ve practiced?
20 years.
Why do you enjoy what you do?
It’s enjoyable to change a person’s life by creating a beautiful, healthy smile. It’s artistic and challenging with the rapidly changing technology that makes dentistry more interesting and rewarding. I love the meticulous attention to detail that dentistry requires.
I also like running my own business, managing employees and watching my practice grow. Additionally, I enjoy providing my patients with the latest dental equipment
and technology, including Guided Implant Technology utilizing 3-D Cone Beam and Same Day Crowns and Veneers utilizing CEREC Technology.
Have you had any interesting cases you can tell us about ? I have performed numerous smile make-overs combining Invisalign with Same Day Crowns and Veneers. We work with several charities providing basic dental care to even complete dentures for disabled citizens of our community. We also provide dentistry for our soldiers on weekends. That gives me more satisfaction than anything.
What general advice do you have for South Mississippians to improve their health? See your dentist every six months for checkups and cleanings; floss; improve your diet; get involved in a sport or regular exercise.
How do you like to relax?
Going on vacation, laying out by the pool, listening to music, playing drums, playing tennis, gardening, drinking wine and cooking with my wife and daughters.
