FISHERS PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY Congratulations to Dr. Ana Vázquez, Founder and CEO of Fishers Pediatric Dentistry (FPD), for celebrating her 10th year as a Top Dentist. When Dr. Ana first envisioned her pediatric dental practice in 1996, she wanted to take her patients and their parents to a place that would take their minds off the anxieties and fears often associated with dental treatment. Her uniquely designed, tropical themed dental office creates a one-of-a-kind experience for everyone. With a reception area filled with beach scenes, palm trees and Adirondack chairs, and treatment rooms surrounded by rainforest murals and surfboards, the Puerto Rican theme has proven to be very successful. While FPD is the 20-year-old brain child of Dr. Ana, she is proud to share the practice with Dr. Misti Pratt, who became partowner in 2016. It was important for Dr. Ana to find someone who shared her outside-the-box creative vision, as well as her genuine love for her craft – after all, if you’re going to do something every day, it certainly helps to love what you do! The two doctors found their professional other-half in one another, sharing both their overall passion for life and their love of working with children. They share a common goal – to create a unique and Dr. Misti Pratt enjoyable experience for each patient and parent who visits their “island.” To them, this is more than a job… it’s their passion. Parents almost always want better for their children than themselves, and this especially holds true for their dental care! Dr. Ana and Dr. Misti believe that a trip to the dentist should be a positive adventure. It is their mission to deliver a dental experience full of compassion, creativity and charm; laying down a positive foundation for a lifetime of beautiful smiles. Together, they are continuously seeking ways to provide comfort outside of traditional techniques.

“We are asking the children to trust us, and in return, I think that it is our responsibility to make them feel comfortable while they are here. Occasionally, we will get a child that is nervous; however, I feel this is when we have an opportunity to really shine. We strive to make each visit for every child as fun and as easy as possible. I enjoy being a pediatric dentist because I love the kids,” says Dr. Ana, who likes sharing hugs and chats with her small patients. “I believe that one of life’s greatest pleasures is a child’s smile; I could not ask for a greater reward.” DECEMBER 2018 | IM

Serving Indianapolis and the surrounding areas for over 25 years, Associated Orthodontists of Indiana is known for providing quality orthodontic care to children and adults in a comfortable, caring environment.

We are committed to providing our patients with the best esthetic and functional results possible. Associated Orthodontists of Indiana also offers InvisalignÂŽ clear retainers as an alternative to traditional braces for many patients. We utilize the iTero scanner to create an image for records and aligner fabrication. The scanner eliminates the need for impressions for our InvisalignÂŽ patients.

For over 20 years, Dr. Karen Cottingham has offered the latest in orthodontic treatment and patient care for children and adults. She studied at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and received her master’s degree in orthodontics from Indiana University. Treating both children and adults, Dr. Cottingham achieves a balance of treatment time, cost, and benefits. She avoids two phases of treatment for most children, saving parents time and unnecessary expense. “I try to avoid putting braces on a child twice,” said Cottingham. “In most cases, I can treat the child once and save the additional time and expense.” Meanwhile, her adult patients appreciate the results of fuller lips, improved profile, and better dental health. “We love our adult patients and are seeing more and more of them in our practice,” said Cottingham. “They say their new smiles make them look younger and feel more confident.” Dr. Cottingham is passionate about orthodontics and truly thankful to have what she feels is the most rewarding job in the world. She shares that enthusiasm and spirit with everyone she meets. Dr. Cottingham enjoys getting to know and helping all the wonderful families who visit her office. In response to some of her families, she recently added a Spanish-speaking team member to help those patients better understand their treatment and feel more comfortable in Dr. Cottingham’s care. Cottingham Orthodontics offers it all – excellent patient care, superior customer service, and convenience – right here in the Indianapolis area. Cottingham Orthodontics has two convenient locations, one near 38th Street/I-465 and one in Avon. Visit www.CottinghamOrtho.com for more information.

GRIN DENTISTRY Grin. One word sums it up. Dr. Malinda Mundy-Burgett has been making patients grin for 25 years. For her, creating a beautiful smile is essential but having patients actually smile because their dental visit was smooth, comfortable, and convenient is even more important. Dr. Mundy-Burgett has crafted a patient-oriented approach that is unsurpassed. Comfort on all levels is vigorously pursued. Being physically comfortable during dentistry is essential and is achieved by employing multiple approaches. But comfort extends beyond the physical. Knowing that problems are identified early and repaired properly creates a sense of trust and comfort. Having visits that respect busy schedules allow our patients to have good care with minimal disruption. All of these factors add up to comfortable and happy patients. Dr. Mundy-Burgett believes that leaders stay out in front of the pack. Her patients enjoy the benefits of the newest dental technologies and techniques. They also benefit from detecting problems early so that they can be fixed in the simplest, most comfortable, and most affordable way. Her patients benefit from a perfectionist’s approach to procedures. Dr. Mundy-Burgett explains, “It’s not just my patient’s teeth I’m interested in; I want them to be the healthiest they can be overall. I want my patient’s to feel encouraged, educated, and excited to come see us. And I enjoy returning their trust by delivering the slickest and newest dentistry in a comfortable, unsurpassed experience.”
