Newborns with Tethered Oral Tissues (Tongue-Tie/Lip-Tie), children with special behavioral or medical needs and extensive dental needs that have a difficult time getting to access to care have been the driving force for her to start her private practice. She has helped improve the quality of life of her patients including infants as young as 2 days old, who are struggling with challenges of nursing due to Lip or Tongue-Tie issues. She is an educator and has provided numerous seminars and training for introducing and promoting infant oral health, pediatric dentistry and benefits of laser applications to general dentists, pediatricians, lactation consultants, speech pathologists as well as the providers of the Infant Toddler Connection programs.
