Patient Impact

On many occasions, patients have come into the office with severe breakdown of their front teeth. They consciously make an effort not to smile and it affects their entire demeanor. After restoring their smile, I have seen a complete transformation in their personality and outlook on life. Making a difference like that in someone's life is very gratifying!

Personal Quote

“My professional passion is helping people and providing quality solutions to my patient’s dental conditions. As a general dentist, I spent many years learning and developing the skills required to efficiently and predictably provide all forms of cosmetic and restorative care. I chose to pursue an advanced education in Periodontics and Implant Surgery because of “quality of life” changes I saw in my patients and the satisfaction of knowing I could make a real difference. As a specialist, I enjoy providing my patients with thorough evaluations and informative solutions, helping them decide what is ultimately in their individual best interest. I always strive to provide quality direction and comfortable care that my patients can count on and I can be proud of.”

Donna Telly has been a hygienist for over 24 years. She has 2 children and a dog named Jessica.

Patient Impact

"I saw a patient for the first time a few months ago. She was completely apprehensive and cried through the appointment. The second time I saw here, there were just a few tears. I saw her the other day and she didn't shed a tear. We were chattering and she actually enjoyed her appointment. When she left, she thanked me and told me that I 'cured' her. She couldn't believe that she didn't cry. That was the first time in her life that she didn't cry through a dental appointment."
