Dr. O’Reilly in her own words
"Having been born and raised in Ireland, orthodontics was not something that was too prevalent growing up, but became a field that fascinated me early on. Going through dental school, I realized it's the perfect blend of art and science as well as a field in which my patients would be my partners in treatment; becoming not just patients but friends. What other field allows one to build such strong relationships with one's clients? What other field brings such fulfillment and happiness to one’s work? I quickly understood orthodontics was to be, and did indeed become, my dream career. I learn something new every day from my patients, and I strive to make their visits the highlight of their day as well. I can't imagine any work more fun and rewarding than contributing to the health and wellbeing of our treasured patients. My goal every day is to not only make a difference in my patients' lives, but for them to know that we're giving them the utmost in specialty care. Orthodontics today is as much about providing my patients with a healthy, lasting, fully-functional bite as it is about creating an aesthetically-attractive smile."
