I would like to tell you something about me. I started my journey a long time ago in Colombia with a doctor who was a biological physician. He taught me for a couple of years, and then I moved to the United States, went to school, and started practicing dentistry. But now, with many problems that my patients come with, I've decided to open this chapter again in my practice: biological dentistry. Welcome, everyone. If you have any questions, ask me, text me, or look at my website. Thank you very much. I hope I've been able to answer some questions you have, and feel free to give us a call.
