General Info

About me

Since I was a child I was inspired to be a dentist thanks to my dad who is also a dentist. I was always oriented toward health and the offering of services and solutions for patients. I enjoy the integrity of Prosthodontics, it's comparable to conducting an orchestra or being a mouth engineer.
