Professional Info

Dr. Marks is most passionate about improving the overall health of her patients. Most people don't realize how much oral health (or dishealth) can impact the health of their overall body. She enjoys seeing the improvements in patients over the course of their dental treatment. One of her favorites is seeing the "befores" and "afters." We can make such positive changes in peoples' smile and oral function. It's nice to appreciate where someone started, and how far they've come with their oral health.

Knowing she can help people. Helping to get people out of pain. Helping patients to realize how beautiful their smiles can look. Helping to prevent future pain and disease. Know that she can stop decay in its tracks and prevent patients from needing extensive dental work in the future.

Dr. Marks enjoys meeting new people and learning about their lives.

She is passionate about her children. If she could, she would go for a hike every day, as she enjoys  exploring the Minnesota and Wisconsin state parks.

Personal Statement

Dr. Marks feels at times dentistry has received a bad reputation. In reality, dentistry is a great means of helping people to improve their lives. Removing infection, taking away pain, and ensuring someone can keep their teeth for a lifetime is what's important in dentistry. The profession can be perceived as just fixing people's teeth, but it's a means to improve someone's confidence and their ability to eat and chew normally, regardless of their age.

Dr. Marks likes meeting so many unique people. All patients have their own life experiences, and it's great to learn about others and appreciate all the great people and experiences there are out in the world.

Dr. Marks enjoys giving people the renewed confidence that comes along with have a beautiful smile. It's amazing the difference you can see in someone, when they feel ashamed in their smile, versus after they've had their teeth restored. The world perceives them differently, and it can truly affect their entire lives.
