She is devoted to providing the best and most gentle care for her patients. In fact, she has patients who have been with her for 20 years. Dr. Bagheri attributes her interest in dentistry to her frequent visits to a very kind “lady dentist” in her childhood (unfortunately, Dr. Bagheri was very fond of candy).
