I am a Board-Certified Orthodontist at Happy Hoppers Pediatric Dentistry & Braces in Methuen, Massachusetts. I earned my DMD and MSD from Boston University’s Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine, and I am passionate about providing orthodontic care that supports healthy jaw, facial, and airway development.
My clinical interests include early and interceptive orthodontics, traditional braces, Invisalign, bite correction, growth monitoring, and airway-focused orthodontics for children and teens. I take a comprehensive approach to orthodontic care, looking beyond tooth alignment to understand the factors that may influence a child’s overall oral and facial development.
I also bring a strong research background to my clinical work, with peer-reviewed research involving palatal morphology, jaw stability, and airway health. My patient-centered approach focuses on creating individualized treatment plans that support healthy development while helping children and teens achieve confident, healthy smiles.
I am affiliated with professional organizations including the American Dental Association, American Association of Orthodontists, and New England Society of Orthodontists. I am proud to serve children, teens, and families throughout Methuen and the greater Merrimack Valley.
