Teaching Interests

I am particularly interested in teaching clinical sedation, third-molar surgery, implant dentistry, and full-mouth rehabilitation, with an emphasis on practical, evidence-based technique. My teaching approach prioritizes comprehensive treatment planning and clear clinical decision-making to help residents deliver predictable, high-quality outcomes. I aim to develop clinicians who can confidently integrate advanced procedures into everyday practice.
