Dental health is whole-body health.
The oral-systemic connection informs how we understand the patient’s clinical story, coordinate care, and evaluate medical billing options.

30+ years in dentistry.
One mission built on what’s possible.
With more than 30 years in dentistry, I have seen firsthand how life-changing comprehensive dental treatment can be—and how often patients struggle to access the care they need.
I created My Smile Insured to help practices understand medical necessity, support patients with greater confidence, and reconnect oral health with overall health.

The experience behind the advocacyI know the practice.
I know the practice.
I understand the patient.
I see the whole picture.
My background spans dental assisting, office management, software training, treatment coordination, and medical billing. I bring the clinical context and the practical reality of running a dental practice to this work.
About a decade of that experience has been spent directly with patients in treatment consultations, discussing affordability and the decisions that come with comprehensive care.
My Smile Insured works on two sides of the same gap: with patients who need an advocate, and with practices that want to help more people access care.
“Maybe by working together, we can fix a broken system and transform dentistry.”
The smile that started it all.
Where the mission comes fromMy mom always
My mom always
had a smile.
I’ve always believed our smile is one of our greatest possessions. It’s how we share joy, confidence, and connection.
My mom didn’t have an easy life—but she always had a smile. That smile was her light, her strength, her gift to everyone around her.
Then one day… she lost it.
As her daughter, it was gut-wrenching. As a dental professional, it was eye-opening. Watching her lose not just her smile but her confidence—it broke me. And it changed me.
I decided no one else should have to go through that.
I became a medical billing specialist and learned how to document medical necessity for dental care—helping patients explore insurance options for care they need for their health and dignity.
Because everyone deserves to smile again.
What guides the work
Compassion. Integrity. Possibility.
Patients deserve an advocate.
Clear explanations, thoughtful questions, and organized documentation help patients make more informed decisions.
The right practice sees the whole patient.
MSI partners with doctors who document care with integrity and believe oral health belongs in the overall health conversation.
Education opens doors.
When patients understand what to ask and practices understand how to prepare, more meaningful conversations become possible.
