Dr. Karla Isaacs Teeth Tamers Orthodontics, LLC

David P. Young, DMD, DICOI

“Since 9th grade, I always wanted to be a dentist. A distant cousin who happened to be a dentist knew how much I enjoyed technical projects and science. He recommended to my parents that I consider a career in dentistry, too. I am more excited about dentistry today than when I first started out. New technology and treatment innovations let me do more for my patients with far less discomfort and inconvenience to them. My goal is to educate every patient about their dental condition. I use photos and X-rays and the intraoral camera to show them exactly what’s going on. I use my advanced training and knowledge of dentistry to give every patient the most up-to- date care.” In his spare time Dr. Young enjoys aerobic fitness, playing golf, travel and wine.

My medical training in Family Medi- cine and women’s health along with my former career as an environmentalist have given me a unique vantage point in my consultations with patients. I view health as an ecosystem, looking at how a patient is functioning as a whole - not as pieces or parts. Functional Medicine gave me effective tools to both evaluate and treat a per- son in their ecosystem. It is a revolu-
