“Dr. Grace,” as her patients call her, was an Associate Dentist for nearly 14 years, focusing on honing her clinical acumen and investing in quality dental continuing education, before opening her own dental practice. She completed training over ten years ago, in Advanced Fixed Prosthodontics and has completed many full mouth reconstruction cases (crowns and veneers for collapsed and severely worn teeth).  She has been an Invisalign Premier Provider since 2004 and helped patients of all ages, from 15 to 75, straighten and close gaps between teeth to rebalance their smiles, improving bite, function, esthetics and quality of life.  She is also a Six Month Smiles Provider which is an orthodontic system for adults, that utilizes clear brackets and clear wires to straighten teeth in about six months.  She also restores and places surgical Dental Implants.  All treatment can be completed with Sedation and/or Nitrous Oxide for the most comfortable and anxiety-free dental visit.

When she is not seeing patients, she enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, yoga, baking desserts and indulging her own sweet tooth.
