Women
in Dentistry
On any given day, I
may use my laser
only a few times ...
but I don't consider
[it] a wasted
investment, because
I'm equipping my
patients with the
knowledge of the
range of tools
available to them.

through conversations in our operatories.
When patients start to understand the state
of their oral cavity, they begin to feel like
they're also the expert-ultimately making

2. Cerec CAD/CAM
In February 2016, I purchased the Cerec
Omnicam scanner and MC X milling unit
and the Programat CS2 porcelain furnace.
I did so knowing that I needed a way to
decrease turnaround time for restorations
without compromising on quality. With
this technology, I'm now able to produce
high-quality, highly aesthetic restorations
in one appointment. Cerec allows me
to fabricate inlays, onlays, full-coverage
crowns, bridges, veneers, custom abutments
and implant crowns. While the benefits of
decreasing turnaround time are obvious
and tangible, I didn't account for the
intangible benefits to the patient experience.
There are no more gooey impressions, no
more temporary crowns and, best of all,
no second appointment. The look on a
patient's face alone when she realizes that
she's not going to have to clear another
spot in her schedule has well been worth
the investment.
3. Solea laser
If you asked my postgraduate self which
single innovation would directly impact my
success as a dental professional in the future,
I'm willing to bet that the word laser would
not have been my first guess. In June 2015,
I purchased an amazing isotropic CO2 laser,
which vaporizes enamel while desensitizing
the tooth, allowing me to prepare cavities
without anesthetic. This is a game changer
for children and patients with needle phobias.
While it greatly reduces anxiety in patients
who typically avoid treatment due to the
injection, it also benefits children who tend
to damage their soft tissues by biting their
numb lips or tongue.
Beyond my initial expectations, this
technology has also allowed me to expand
the services that I offer. Gingivectomies
and frenectomies are now commonplace in
my practice. Having the ability to work in
multiple quadrants of the mouth in a single
