Welcome to Our Cosmetic Dentistry Blog

I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how thankful we are to be a part of each of your lives. I just saw a patient on Monday that I remember seeing as a 2 year old who is now entering college. How did she get so old, when I didn't?! So many of my littlest patients have grown and now have jobs or a spouse and some even have kids of their own! I don't take any moment for granted with my own children as I have seen yours grow up so quickly. By seeing them every 6 months instead of every day like you do, I feel like I have their lives on fast-forward and see how very quickly it goes.

I've also enjoyed growing with my adult patients. I've watched many of you get married and have children, or my older patients are able to update me on their latest grandchild. I have several families whom I am privileged to see four generations. Thank you for letting us share in the happy times and know that we are praying for you during the sad times. I don't know if any of you have seen the movie, Same Time Next Year, but this couple meets once a year for twenty or thirty years and each time they meet up, they hear about the trials and joys of the past year. I feel that way with so many of you. I feel like I have a bookmark in a thousand books and as each of you come in, I hear the next chapter.

When I went to dental school, I had no idea that this would be the best part of being a dentist. But it is. The relationship I have with each of you is special. And I know you guys have watched me grow up too. From opening this practice at age 25 (looking 15 at the time) and having the most common question be, "How old are you?" to our early 30's when for 4 straight years either Dr. Tiller or I was pregnant, to now as we both have (gasp) teenagers!

You have all been a blessing. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday and thank you so much for sharing your lives with us.
