The rewards of being an orthodontist are many. Not only do I get to enhance my patients’ dental health and appearance, but I also help them to grow up with more self-esteem and confidence. Relationships and friendships are developed over the course of treatment, and I have learned much from the many people I’ve had the pleasure to meet. I have a staff that is not only professional, but fun as well. They care about our patients and are as excited about orthodontics as I am.

After graduating from TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY in 1972 with a Bachelor of Science, I was accepted into the UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS DENTAL SCHOOL in Houston. After receiving my Doctorate of Dental Surgery in 1976, I decided to go into private dental practice to determine which field I would like to specialize in.

I was fascinated by orthodontics and all that could be accomplished by straightening teeth. I applied to and was accepted into the orthodontic program at the University of Texas Dental School in Houston, from which I graduated with my certificate in orthodontics in 1985. After that, I set up practice in Copperfield and have been here ever since. VISIT ME ON GOOGLE+

The field of orthodontics is always changing. I keep up with the latest advances via continuing education courses throughout the year. In addition, I teach new residents in the dental school’s orthodontic department as a clinical professor.
