Every day, I am able to help people develop smiles that will improve their life, for a lifetime.

I’m a parent. As such, with each young patient, I look at them as I would my own child and ask how I would approach their treatment. My entire staff shares the same goal: to provide excellent care to each and every one of our patients.”
— Dr. Mark Holt
Orthodontics is a constantly evolving discipline. Each year Dr. Holt completes many continuing education courses in order to stay abreast of the changes in techniques, technology, and materials. Some of his many courses have included technological advances, mini-screws, and the use of lasers in orthodontics.

For 2 of those years she was stationed aboard aircraft carrier USS Enterprise and deployed for 8 months in support of OEF (Operation Enduring Freedom).

Dr. Behpour was stationed at various Naval Dental Clinics across the country and also served overseas in Japan for 3 years, working at Naval Hospital Yokosuka, Japan.

Dr. Behpour left active duty service to specialize in orthodontics. Her orthodontic residency allowed for the opportunity to try many different orthodontic techniques, bracket systems, and appliances – both fixed and removable, which allows her to tailor the treatment perfectly to each patient’s individual needs.
