Alexandria Cosmetic Dentistry

We spent the day yesterday with my dear friend Sandy Roth. Sandy is a psychologist and trainer. She worked with us on listening and hearing. So often we may think we understand what someone wants or desires but we have really not heard them. We try our very hardest to listen well and understand peoples desires and how they want us to help them. One of the values that our office is rooted in is honesty. We are always honest with our patients and our patients are honest with us, we have made that agreement with them from the "git go" as they say in Southern Maryland.

The class was really excellent, Sandy is a terrific teacher, she was once the vice president of The National Organization of Women and was an instrumental player in the women's rights movement back in the 60's and 70's. She and her husband Doug (also a dentist) live in Central Florida.

As a cosmetic dc dentist serving Northern Virginia and the Maryland Suburbs I believe it is very very important to take the time to listen and understand people really really well prior to discussing treatment options. Someone who has an understanding of the unique needs on an individual can better serve them.

We are thankful and grateful to all of those who chose us to serve their cosmetic dental needs and especially grateful to the caring people who allowed us to use their before and after photos so that others may see them and have hope for their future of having a healthy mouth and smile! Thanks Very Much! We will look forward to seeing all of you both old patients and new ones.

Cosmetic Dentist DC

Hi!

Just a note to let you know that we have just completed a full day seminar with Dr. Michael Myasaki in Vienna Virginia. Dr. Myasaki reviewed several principles of Neuromuscular dentistry and occlusion to 25 local DC Cosmetic Dentists. Dr Varipapa was one of only three cosmetic dentists there who had been named "Top Dentist" with particular expertise in cosmetic dentistry by Washingtonian Magazine. As a member of this local LVI study club which meets in McLean Virginia, top cosmetic dentists from the DC area meet to enhance their studies in particular areas of advanced dentistry. Next month Dr Varipapa and his assistant travel to Las Vegas, Nevada to study at the Las Vegas Institute. We will keep you up to date on this and other training. Bye bye
