Specialization: Cynthia’s practice stands out by doing things that other practices don’t do. Her number one goal was to provide the best patient experience possible by doing the little creature comfort things no one else does, like putting a display on the celing of the operatory that shows patients the area of Tuscany that she loves so much. The personal touches are just the beginning. She also strives to be the best dentist she can to get her patients out of pain, looking beautiful, and talking about how wonderful it can be seeing the dentist.
