Outside the office, I love spending time with my family and being Auntie to my nieces and nephews. With two girls of my own, my husband and I stay busy! Camping, BBQs, and being outdoors are my idea of a great weekend. I also like to travel and have had the honor of participating in dental missions to Mexico. I look forward to going again.

I keep busy when I'm not helping patients. My husband and three boys and I love living in southern Oregon and take advantage of the beautiful outdoors: camping, hiking, rafting, and skiing. Of course, we love Oregon Ducks football, too!
It is not just teenagers who end up wearing braces. Children as young as six might need them to correct a jaw problem. It is also common for an adult to wear braces to correct an issue that was not fixed by braces when younger.
It is important to brush your teeth immediately after you eat if you have traditional metal braces. This will prevent plaque from forming. Do not think that you can brush later. Carry a toothbrush with you so that nothing will stay stuck in your braces. Your friends will understand.
There will be some discomfort for a couple of days after you receive traditional metal braces. This is nothing to be concerned about. We will supply you with orthodontic wax, which will help the issue.
Do not be surprised if your teeth feel loose not long after you receive the braces. This is a common issue. Your teeth need to loosen up a little bit so that they will be able to move to their new spot in your jaw.
If you play sports, we need to know about it. This is because we will want to fit you with a custom-made mouthguard. The mouthguard will be made to fit your mouth and protect your teeth and your braces. Make sure that you use it.
There will be some types of foods that you will want to stay away from while you have your braces. Stick to soft foods if your mouth is sore for the first few days. After that, skip foods that are sticky or that are too hard when you bite down on them. You will also need to stay away from gum.
