I am a sailor, 87 years old, now retired, Dr. Naghmeh Izadi, DMD has been my talented and expert dentist since 2000. She has kept my mouth and teeth in the condition, as we sailors would say, “Ship shape in Bristol fashion” since then.
Sailors like to tell stories, mine is about Dr. Izadi keeping my teeth in first class condition. It goes like this: A ship carries cargo or passengers on many cruises. During these it picks up barnacles and slimy growth and sometimes dents, cracks, and corrosion on its steel hull plates. It periodically goes to a shipyard to be cleaned and put into order to make more efficient cruises. A mouth and teeth go through lots of meals and food. Over time they pick up plaque and tartar that are equal to slime and barnacles on ships; also cavities and cracks! My mouth goes to Dr. Izadi’s dental shipyard periodically for maintenance and repair. At 87 years I can still chew almost anything and joke with Dr. Izadi about keeping my teeth free of barnacles. I highly recommend Dr. Izadi as a wonderful dentist!
