Happy 2021 from Bethesda and Spring Valley Orthodontics! As the new year begins, I’ve set some new professional and personal goals for the months to come.

In the office, I’d like to expand the number of patients she sees who are using the game-changing technology that is BRIUS. Treatment using BRIUS is completed much faster than traditional braces and aligners. If you are looking for more information regarding BRIUS please follow this link to learn more about the advantages about choosing this treatment option.

At home, it’s all about finding balance. It can be so difficult, especially in a COVID world! And it might be even harder when we are able to do more again. We all need to remember to take time to recharge and focus on what is meaningful. For me, that means more yoga, stretching, and meditation. We can’t forget to take time to connect with ourselves in a fast-paced world.

I also plan to continue learning, mostly through academic journals. I’ve love to take advantage of all the Washington, D.C. area has to offer in terms of art and history. Once it’s safe to get out more, of course!

With the COVID-19 vaccine starting to become available to healthcare workers and the elderly, and soon the public at large, there is so much promise on the horizon for us all. I can’t wait to take the COVID vaccine! I also forward to seeing my patients smile without a mask.

Regardless of what your resolutions are for the year, I hope you will recommit (or continue to stay committed) to your oral hygiene. Remember three simple words for you: floss, floss, floss!

January brings us in welcome change and newness. Have a phenomenal start to the year and I can’t wait to see you in the office!
