Brief Biographical Data:
|
After graduation from Loyola University School of
Dentistry, I practiced General Dentistry for
twelve years. I returned to academics in 1989 as
a student in the University of Minnesota Graduate
School to pursue a Master's Degree in
Prosthodontics. Since receiving the advanced
degree, I have been privileged to work in both the
preclinical and clinical Prosthodontic education
of undergraduate dental students at the University
of Minnesota.
I attribute my desire to be involved in the
fabrication of dental prosthetics to the early
training I received in the field of mechanical
engineering. Prosthodontics is a "bridge" from
the man-made world to the biological.
Prosthodontics challenges the dentist to be
innovative and unique because of the individuality
of each patient's needs.
