WEBVTT 00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.720 There are different reasons on why I decided to become a dentist, 00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:12.400 and one of them is I always wanted to be in health care. 00:00:12.467 --> 00:00:13.900 I like working with my hands. 00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:17.233 I really like spending time on doing root canal treatments 00:00:17.300 --> 00:00:20.233 or implants or crowns and bridges 00:00:20.315 --> 00:00:24.767 and the artistic side that comes with each of those parts. 00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.833 But I really want my patients to feel when they come in through the offices 00:00:28.900 --> 00:00:31.633 that they know their dental care is first. 00:00:31.867 --> 00:00:37.533 Myself, my staff, we are all interested in making sure that people understand 00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:40.086 that you can keep your teeth for the rest of your life, 00:00:40.167 --> 00:00:42.867 and we would like to make that a reality for everyone. 00:00:42.933 --> 00:00:46.333 My favorite part of interacting with my patients 00:00:46.400 --> 00:00:53.133 is when we work together as a team and we accomplish the goal. 00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:56.169 Now, there was a time when I was doing braces on this patient 00:00:56.267 --> 00:00:59.909 because her teeth had moved into a position where 00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.367 every time she would bite down, 00:01:02.720 --> 00:01:05.233 she would hurt one of her front teeth there. 00:01:05.300 --> 00:01:08.667 It only took us a couple of months to be able to move 00:01:08.733 --> 00:01:11.500 the teeth into a more comfortable situation. 00:01:11.567 --> 00:01:16.333 When the treatment was done and she had a good smile 00:01:16.800 --> 00:01:20.320 and it was not bothering her when she would bite down, 00:01:20.960 --> 00:01:24.933 it literally brought tears to her eyes when the whole treatment was completed. 00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.700 It was a wonderful experience for us, too.
