Who I am and how I got here.
I’m a general dentist, and in Spring 2027 I’m opening Molar Town, my own office in Novi. I also hold a degree in education, which explains a lot about how I work: I’d rather show you what I see than ask you to take my word for it.
Services, pricing, and what a visit is like are all on the practice site.
Twelve years in practice taught me what a good visit looks like.
It has enough time in it, it hides nothing, and it ends with an explanation you could repeat to your family at dinner. That is how I practice, and it is what Molar Town is built around.
From Detroit to Novi.
The science-and-math kid
Born and raised in Detroit. Notebooks full of sketches, a habit of taking things apart, and a Carl Sagan documentary habit that never went away.
University of Michigan, BS and DDS
Learned the craft. Also learned that the imaging and the records are half the story, and that nobody was teaching patients to read them.
Twelve years of general dentistry
I saw both sides of the same problem: the patient who leaves confused, and the dentist explaining the same finding for the fourth time that day.
Molar Town
The practice moved from a notebook sketch to a former bank on Novi Road with six private suites. The buildout is underway, and DentalDNA, the report every patient will take home, took shape alongside it.
Molar Town opens
Doors open at 23890 Novi Road.
Most dental offices are organized around volume.
Good tools get used in a hurry, and patients still leave with more questions than answers. Rather than keep working around that, I started making the things I wished I had: an office built for unhurried visits, Molar Town, and a report patients can read, DentalDNA. The rest, including the music, is in the portfolio.
If you build software for dentistry and want a dentist’s perspective, you are welcome to write to me.
Not only teeth.
Outside the office I’m usually deep in a lecture by a scientist I admire, following the Artemis program like a sport, or turning everyday life into a song. I help coach a FIRST LEGO League Explore team in Novi, and my daughter and I watch science documentaries before bed.
I make music as Molar Town Radio. This is the origin story of the name Molar Town.
Thanks for reading this far.
This site is my notebook: who I am, how I practice, and what I’m making. The practice has its own home at molartown.com, and I hope to meet you there.
