30 years in dentistry.
One mission built on
what's possible.

With more than 30 years in dentistry, I have seen firsthand how life-changing comprehensive dental treatment can be — and how often patients struggle to access the care they need. My experience inside full-arch, implant, and medical billing environments is what led me to create My Smile Insured: to help practices understand medical necessity, support patients with greater confidence, and reconnect oral health with overall health.

Where the mission comes from.

With more than 30 years in dentistry, I have seen firsthand how life-changing comprehensive dental treatment can be, and how often patients struggle to access the care they need. My experience inside full-arch, implant, and medical billing environments is what led me to create My Smile Insured: to help practices understand medical necessity, support patients with greater confidence, and reconnect oral health with overall health.

I spent time inside some of the most comprehensive dental treatment environments in the country — places where the standard of care was high and the commitment to patients was real. Those experiences shaped how I see this work. I know what it looks like when a practice is truly fighting for their patients. That standard lives in everything I built at My Smile Insured — in who I work with, how I qualify practices, and what I'm willing to put my name on.

My Smile Insured exists because there is a gap between what medical insurance will actually cover — and what patients know to ask for, and what practices know how to document and bill. That gap is costing people care they need and deserve.

I close that gap. For patients who need an advocate. For practices who want to be one.

I bring AAPC credentials, 30 years of clinical context, and affiliation with the American Academy of Oral Systemic Health to every case I touch. But more than credentials — I bring the ability to see the whole picture. The patient. The diagnosis. The insurance. The documentation. The path through.

The Smile That Started It All

My mom always had a smile.

I've always believed our smile is one of our greatest possessions. It's how we share joy, confidence, and connection.

My mom didn't have an easy life — but she always had a smile. That smile was her light, her strength, her gift to everyone around her.

Then one day… she lost it.

As her daughter, it was gut-wrenching. As a dental professional, it was eye-opening. Watching her lose not just her smile but her confidence — it broke me. And it changed me.

I decided no one else should have to go through that.

I became a medical billing specialist and learned how to document medical necessity for dental care — helping insurance cover what patients truly need for their health and dignity.

Because everyone deserves to smile again.

The expertise behind the advocacy.

AAPC

Medical & Dental Coding

AAPC credentialed — trained in both medical and dental billing standards. This dual expertise is the bridge that makes medical billing for dental procedures possible. Most billers have one side. I have both.

AAOSH

American Academy of Oral Systemic Health

Member of the leading professional organization connecting oral health to whole-body health. This is not a credential I put on a wall — it's the framework through which I approach every patient case.

Experience

30+ Years in Clinical Dentistry

With more than 30 years in dentistry, I have seen firsthand how life-changing comprehensive dental treatment can be, and how often patients struggle to access the care they need. My experience inside full-arch, implant, and medical billing environments is what led me to create My Smile Insured: to help practices understand medical necessity, support patients with greater confidence, and reconnect oral health with overall health.

The principles behind the work.

Dental health is whole-body health.

The oral-systemic connection is not a theory — it's documented, measurable, and directly relevant to how dental care should be billed, advocated for, and treated. I practice this belief in every case I touch.

Patients deserve an advocate who knows the system.

Most patients accept "it's not covered" as a final answer. It often isn't. Medical necessity is argued, documented, and appealed — by someone who knows how. That's what I do.

The right doctor is worth finding.

I'm selective about the practices I work with — not because I'm exclusive, but because the work requires a specific foundation. A doctor who sees the patient as a whole person, documents care with integrity, and is willing to change how they practice — that's who this works for.

Education creates the demand that changes the system.

The more patients understand what they're entitled to, the more they'll ask for it. The more practices learn to provide it, the more patients can access it. That flywheel — patient demand driving practice adoption — is how we fix a broken system from both ends.

"Giving someone their smile back is more than just fixing teeth. It is a gateway to health, self-worth, and social connection. We can truly transform lives by acting with compassion — and maybe by working together, we can fix a broken system and transform dentistry."
