Over the weekend, we recognized both:
*National Dentist Day
*International Women’s Day — symbolic of the two callings that reflect pieces of my heart and purpose.

God knew exactly what He was doing when He placed these passions in my heart.

Yes, I’m a dentist — restoring smiles one tooth at a time. But I’m also deeply passionate about restoring women… especially mamas.

Because motherhood, wellness, faith, and health are all connected. When a mama is supported, educated, and reminded of her worth, something powerful happens — her whole family flourishes.

Through NOAH for Moms and Teeth & Tatas, my mission has become simple:

Help mamas smile again.
Spiritually. Emotionally. Physically.
…and yes, dentally too. 😉

To every woman showing up, pouring out, healing, learning, and building while holding the world together — I celebrate you.

And to the mamas:
your smile matters more than you know.

We’ve gotten so many questions about the club track and field culture, so this time we thought we’d bring you along for the ride.

Just know that dedication of over 20 hours of our time during “meet week” just to see our kiddos run for less than 2 minutes is a delusion that must be studied! Lol

But with the joy and sense of accomplishment he has, along with so many essential life skills acquired, we wouldn’t have it any other way!

Track season is here baby! And we’re in for the long haul, cause we’ve been raising a JUNIOR OLYMPIAN 🔥❤️🥇

In pursuit of understanding my proximity to the perinatal mental health space, people often ask, “Why?”

To them, I say, “Why not?” Science has continually evolved as researchers delve deeper into understanding the human body. It’s now clear that from head to toe, our systems are interconnected, and their health is influenced by both individual care and collective harmony.

The science of dental medicine aligns with this holistic view. Regarding mothers and their babies, here’s what I know:
1. During pregnancy, untreated dental disease—such as periodontal disease—has been associated with adverse birth outcomes like preterm birth, low birth weight, and increased NICU admissions (Riaz et al., 2020).

2. Inflammation caused by periodontal disease can contribute to preterm labor and low birth weight, adding stress and strain on the mother, which can negatively influence her mental health (Gauthier et al., 2019).

3. Prevention through early dental care and education has been shown to improve outcomes and reduce risks (Kumar et al., 2021).

4. Pregnancy-related factors—morning sickness, cravings, and oral aversions—can make maintaining oral health more challenging, increasing the risk of decay and gum disease (Glick et al., 2021).

5. Education empowers mothers to navigate these challenges and prioritize oral health, benefitting both their well-being and their baby’s development (NICE, 2016).

Based on these pillars of knowledge, I see how bridging gaps in care and involving dentists in the perinatal space can be part of the solution.

Oral health journeys for all begin in utero. We must educate and advocate for the oral health of pregnant women to support better birth outcomes. Healthy babies contribute to maternal recovery, creating a positive cycle that benefits long-term health, nutrition, lactation, orofacial development, and mental health.

When we recognize this, it becomes clear: supporting maternal mental health and oral health together is essential for fostering healthier families and stronger communities.

“Hey Mama” Series with
[NOAH for Moms: A Motherhood Ministry]

The enemy has no authority, and will use everything in his limited power to cause you to use your own authority to speak negatively over your situation. Even in moments where you might feel overwhelmed with defeat, he is a liar.

Decree God’s words in the midst of your trials and tribulations and watch as your mindset begins to change as you walk in authority and dominion. The enemy has no choice but to back down and flee.

Let the Word of the Lord, fill your mouth!

But in order to do so, we must study the word. Need help getting started? Stay tuned for upcoming dates for our bible study and devotion sessions coming soon.

Some people see a new month as a new chapter; Others—a new month can just be plain overwhelming:

•You may not have yet reached your goals for the year.
•You may feel behind in tackling your never-ending to-do list.
•You may even be experiencing burn-out, paralyzed by fatigue and frustration.

Mama, no matter what your reality may be, the truth yet remains that God is faithful. He is near in our times of trouble as our VERY PRESENT help.

Today, the Holy Spirit is calling for you to find refuge in the presence of the Lord. Cast your cares upon Him and invite Him into that place of overwhelm that He may carry you through to your abundance of peace and rest in Him.
