Meet Dr. Byczek
Personal
Putting smiles on people's faces is my passion. I knew that I wanted to be an orthodontist ever since I had braces myself at age 13. This passion lead me on a journey that included 11 years of college education in the dental profession. Using the learned knowledge and skills, I have been able to help my patients achieve the healthy and beautiful smiles they desire. It is very rewarding to know that over the years, I have placed smiles on more than 5,000 faces.
Outside of the office, I love to travel, hike, garden, and spend time with my husband Rob and children Allyssa and Braden. We love to visit new places and learn about other cultures. We also enjoy camping and love having our neighbors and friends over for campfires. Other interests of mine include holistic health and nutrition.
Treatment Philosophy
I believe in strong family foundation and values and view my practice as an extension of my family. My treatment philosophy is to create beautiful, healthy smiles in a warm and caring family environment. I am committed to excellence in orthodontic treatment by using the most state-of-the-art technology and lifelong continuing professional education.
