Meet Dr. Maura

My passion is to help you smile with confidence! I received my Bachelors of Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, then earned my Doctorate in Dental Surgery at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. I continued my educational path with an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency as part of my four years of service in the U.S. Navy as a Dental Officer. After the Navy, I returned to UNC Chapel Hill for a three-year combined Certificate and Master of Science in Orthodontics residency to become an orthodontic specialist.
