Accomplishments
“In my 10+ years as a practicing dentist, I’ve had the opportunity to treat a wide range of cases. For example, I’ve successfully performed more than 20,000 root canal treatments and placed over 25,000 crowns, which has given me a deep understanding of restorative and endodontic dentistry. I’ve also completed around 100 dental implants, which required careful planning and precision. These accomplishments reflect not only my technical expertise but also my focus on patient comfort and long-term oral health outcomes. I take pride in building trust with my patients while delivering consistently successful results.”
