A Diplomate is a periodontist who has made significant achievements beyond the mandatory educational requirements of the specialty. It requires passing comprehensive oral and written exams covering all phases of periodontal disease and its treatment, including dental implants.

Awarded by the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, this grant supported her research on "Osseodensification," a cutting-edge technique that preserves bone during implant placement rather than drilling it away.

Selected as a winner among residents from Periodontology programs across the U.S. for her skill in regenerative procedures (regrowing bone and tissue). This highlights her ability to save teeth that might otherwise be lost.

An honor recognizing her ability to handle a diverse range of dental challenges with high proficiency.
