PRACTICE PHILOSOPHY:

“ My philosophy of practice is to provide patients with exceptional periodontal care, based on evidence based treatment, with the most advanced dental technology and medicine available. An additional and equally important goal is to provide that care in a compassionate environment, providing the patient with the necessary information to help them become better educated about their treatment options and ultimately about their oral health while focusing on the individual concerns of every patient”.

  Dr. Townsend is committed to promoting oral health and providing all patients, her professional colleagues and staff with the necessary support and dedication to arrive at the most successful outcome of treatment possible for every individual.  She is equally committed to educating herself, her patients and the dental community about the practice of Periodontics and Implant Surgery.
