OFFICE VISIT
How did you approach your
new office build? Any tips?
I love design. I love the details. To me,
making smiles and designing a building
had a lot in common. My husband
(who had joined the practice as the
administrator) and I made the bold
decision to buy land with an old house
on it, tear down the house and build
a state-of-the-art facility. The building
had been iconic for having an old
sign-something about " divorce for
men only. " When my Smile Power sign
replaced it, there were a lot of calls
cheering the positive change.
The inspiration for my office was a

3D PLANMECA VISO
Being able to visualize the skeletal and dental architecture and airway
in 3D elevates your diagnostic ability.
CASEPRESENTER SOFTWARE
Developed by orthodontist Dr. Tom
Griffin, this software allows us
to show patients diagnostic and
treatment information with photos
and videos. What stands out with
this program is the ability to show
treated cases of patients rather
than simulations. Real cases can be
uploaded as examples, which helps
patients have clarity for a case that
looks just like theirs.
PITTS BRACKET
PLACEMENT TECHNIQUE
Dr. Tom Pitts has transformed the
way I look at smile design and
bracket placement. Because we
incorporate some of his techniques,
our patients achieve better results.
DENTAURUM TADS
The mentorship program with
Dr. Sebastian Baumgaertel and
Dentaurum gave me the confidence
and knowledge to achieve high
success in TADs placement. With
these techniques, cases have had
better outcomes.
MAXILLARY SKELETAL
EXPANSION (MSE)
Specifically, Dr. Won Moon's
maxillary skeletal expander appliance
has changed the way we can
help people with aesthetic and
functional improvement. We also
use the MSE in conjunction with
a traditional facemask to promote
maxillary advancement and airway
improvement.

building in Truckee, California, where
my family had many adventures.
I kept a copy of it on my desk for years
until the opportunity presented itself,
then hired a general architect and contractor,
and with the help of a home
designer began the process.
Explaining functional pieces of clinical
operations or lab to a nondental
person was a new language for them,
but what they did was a new language
to me as well. I thought about how
every person might experience the
space for the functional design:
* We have a tall table with charging
ports for working professionals.
* A colorful table with storage in
the chairs holds paper and crayons
for patients' younger siblings.
* We have dual monitors and
stand-up desks for the doctors.
* The patients are greeted at eye
level by the front office team.
* A TV is wired for laptop access for
community presentations.
* We restock cassettes and supplies
from sterile through the cabinet
so as not to disrupt clinic flow.
* Of course, it must look pretty, too!
