What inspired me to become a periodontist
was understanding that
00:00:03.934 --> 00:00:09.733 line:95% align:center position:50%
my specialty is about precision
and latest technology.

We start building trust with patients
by listening.
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.040 line:95% align:center position:50%
I really want to make sure I understand
where they're coming from,
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:19.773 line:95% align:center position:50%
and we take it from there.
00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:23.467 line:95% align:center position:50%
Usually, when patients feel understood,
they feel less anxious.
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:26.267 line:95% align:center position:50%
I'm really passionate about
regenerative procedures
00:00:26.334 --> 00:00:27.760 line:95% align:center position:50%
and implant surgery.
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.253 line:95% align:center position:50%
I really like seeing
some of the structures of the mouth,
00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:37.173 line:95% align:center position:50%
like gum and bone, regenerate
and patient becomes even healthier
00:00:37.300 --> 00:00:38.520 line:95% align:center position:50%
than they started with.
00:00:39.533 --> 00:00:41.400 line:95% align:center position:50%
Implant surgery is really exciting
00:00:41.467 --> 00:00:43.533 line:95% align:center position:50%
because there's always
new advancement there.
00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:49.600 line:95% align:center position:50%
I think what keeps me motivated in my work
is seeing the patients get healthier.
00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:53.067 line:95% align:center position:50%
Patients often misunderstand
periodontal treatment
00:00:53.134 --> 00:00:56.160 line:95% align:center position:50%
as being invasive and painful,
00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:00.952 line:95% align:center position:50%
but we provide really excellent care
at MK Periodontics,
00:01:01.152 --> 00:01:05.233 line:95% align:center position:50%
and minimally invasive techniques
that are available now to us
00:01:05.300 --> 00:01:10.160 line:95% align:center position:50%
really make it very, very easy
for patients to go through the treatment.
