Congratulations #loudoun! School’s out for summer!! We wish kids, teachers, and families a happy and safe season of fun — and floss! 😁
.
.
Summer is a great time to get you and your kids back on track with their dental health. And a bright, white smile is the perfect pair for a tan! ☀️🦷🌟

This patient is in his early 20’s, is handsome, bright, and has entered the workforce with flying colors — but he came in telling me that he never smiles. (My heart always sinks when I hear this. And I hear it often.) After 10 years of not seeing a dental professional, he was worried about his red, swollen gums and was sure that he had cavities at all of his teeth. I listened to his concerns and never lectured. I could see that he was scared and embarrassed — and ready to make a positive change in his life. 👩🏻‍⚕️
.
.
The first photo shows how plaque and tartar can build up and how angry his gums have become. Without inflicting pain, this condition can go untreated for years in patients who either don’t have access to dental care or who avoid the dentist because of fear or lack of awareness. This build up is filled with biological debris, food, and bacteria — and is a precursor for gum disease and cavities. 🦷
.
.
The second picture is this young man’s smile after an hour with our amazing hygienist, Michelle. The buildup was so tenacious and hard like cement that it took her several visits to fully care for his teeth and gums. And this patient was such a trooper! And so thankful after each appointment. 🙌🏼
.
.
And finally... yesterday, we followed up with him to see how he was healing and to assess for cavities. Can you believe he is cavity free! 🌟 I am proud of his commitment and proud of Michelle for the work that she does as a hygienist. Dental hygiene can absolutely change lives and inspire others to take care of their mouths and bodies. 💯
.
.
I am thankful for this patient’s willingness to allow me to share his story online. My hope is to inspire others to take that first step towards a greater understanding of their oral health and an improved quality of life. This young man is still learning how to smile fully — he no longer needs to hide his teeth — but he reports feeling healthier and more confident. What a gift we give our patients! 💕

We love it when our #oilsquad #girlboss comes to see us! @hillarylamay chooses to come in every 3 months because she knows that, despite her stellar brush & floss routine at home, she tends to accumulate buildup and inflammation quickly. 🦷
.
.
Our hygienists evaluate your individual needs at each appointment and make recommendations based on your current conditions and dental history. So you leave having a better understanding of how you can keep your smile healthy for years to come! 🌟
.
.
Hillary has helped us with her @doterra essential oils to create an atmosphere that is comfortable and serene. I am always excited to learn from and be empowered by our own patients just as much as I strive to motivate and empower them! That’s the true meaning of community! 💕

Yes. That’s a 💩 emoji. And it’s a reminder to be mindful of your colon health. I am always happy to support Scott and the @colorectalcanceralliance in helping raise awareness. Cause cancer sucks. And poop emoji’s are the best. ☺️ Thank you to Scott’s wife and my dear friend, Steph (@livefitnsore) for making sure I got this gift today! 👯‍♀️

Jane has had a history of seeing dentists that had left her feeling defeated and unmotivated. A few years ago I sat with her and listened to her story, and we have made some amazing progress with her oral health, and forged a friendship in the process. 🥰
.
.
We both knew her bite was “not quite right” for a long time, but this year she was ready to take a closer look at what was going on. I conducted a detailed analysis of her TMJ, muscles, and positioning of her teeth and discovered that these factors were not working in harmony. As a result her gums were increasingly inflamed, her teeth were shifting, and things were beginning to break down. Today I performed an Equilibration and immediately I could see the relief on her face... her teeth felt like they all came together evenly! It’s amazing what that actually means to someone that has felt “off” for so long! 🙌🏼
.
.
Sometimes seemingly small changes can make a huge impact on our health, comfort, and confidence! 👩🏻‍⚕️
.
.
This is elevated dental care.

"My experience with the entire team at Joanna Claustro DMD is always a pleasant one." says Jim on Google

birdeye.com ★★★★★ My experience with the entire team at Joanna Claustro DMD is always a pleasant one.

🌟 Before & Temporaries 🌟 Yes, you read right, these aren’t even this patient’s final restorations and her life is already changed for the better. 🙌🏼
.
.
Years of excessive wear, single-tooth dentistry, and a life filled with good memories had taken its toll on this woman’s teeth and aging dental work. Despite good dental hygiene and regular professional care, her chewing system was failing. Her natural teeth were breaking, crowns were falling off, and her gums receding — we agreed that it was time to rehabilitate her smile (and more accurately her bite!) or risk losing teeth. 🦷
.
.
Through careful diagnosis of her TMJ, tooth positioning, and functional occlusion, I worked with @golddustdental lab to design the anatomy of her restorations to be protective, stable, and all around beautiful! This is a complex case and is proof that not all dentistry is created equal. 👩🏻‍⚕️
.
.
When you choose my team to care for your oral health and smile, I take time to look for signs and symptoms of wear and TMJ instability. My goal is to identify risks early and help you decide if and when preventive measures need to be taken or if a full rehab is necessary. My goal is to do the least amount of dentistry in order to keep your teeth, gums, joints, and muscles healthy for years to come. 🙌🏼
.
.
Are you concerned about wear or continually failing teeth? Have you been increasingly dissatisfied with how your mouth looks or feels? Give me a call to schedule a comprehensive exam so we can discuss your options! You deserve a healthy, functional, and confident smile! 703-406-8600

I love how social media has helped me network with amazing, like-minded women. It was such a pleasure to finally meet fellow doctor, mom, business owner, and all around bad ass, Degha Fongod, MD. 👩🏻‍⚕️👩🏾‍⚕️
.
.
Leading a team, caring for patients, growing a business, and oh yeah, raising a family has been a rewarding journey with an incredible responsibility to those that depend on us. Dr. Fongod — owner of Delight Primary Care (a concierge medical practice) and Loudoun Laser and Medical Spa — has a beautiful 14 month old daughter and understands the challenges of finding balance while pursing our passions. It is refreshing to meet another business owner who takes time to raise others up to achieve their goals and remain positive throughout. 🌟

Our patient brought in her original partial denture which we had replaced with implants — she says it’s over 40 years old! Stay tuned for her before and afters! 🤩

It was great seeing my friend and colleague, JeanClaude Karmouche, DMD of @novaperio. Our patients love his charisma, gentle nature, and precise skill when it comes to periodontal surgery and implantology. 🦷
