Inspiring experiences
Both Dr. Kaitlyn and Dr. Michael grew up with extensive dental issues. Dr. Michael was born with a cleft lip and cleft palate requiring 13 surgeries over 18 years including braces for 8 years. Dr. Kaitlyn had an impacted canine that required surgery followed by several years of braces. They know what it’s like to be the patient. These challenges inspired a passion for changing lives through dentistry.
