Mediocrity is not an option. This basic philosophy reinforces the pursuit of excellence in both my teaching and dental practice. Today's practice of dentistry requires our students to learn to be lifelong learners, analytical thinkers, problem solvers and critical self-assessors that use principles based on sound scientific evidence as independent providers of oral health care.
