    
Motivated to Succeed
While it’s still early in her career, Dr. Wilmore pushes herself each year to learn a new technology or product that helps her better serve her patients. She is a certified Invisalign provider and currently is introducing Under Armour Performance Mouthwear™ to her patients. In the future, she plans to attend a Scottsdale Center for Dentistry 3D Summit to learn more about how CEREC and GALILEOS technologies can help her reach her goal to perform implants. “I’ve been doing this almost 20 years,” Reyes says, “and I’ve never seen someone, at such an early age, who is so committed to doing what it takes to do the right thing for the patient.” Fortune says he knows Dr. Wilmore will be successful in her new-found career because “she knows she doesn’t have all the answers, but she’s not afraid to go ask someone or to search out the answers.” Dr. Wilmore and her husband sacrificed to get where they are today, living with her parents for a year when they opened the practice. She continues to work a second job on the weekends in order to pay off the debt brought on by school and opening the new practice. But she would do it all over again and, in fact, is a vocal advocate for young dentists to start their own practice. She and Reyes have teamed up to present to third- and fourth-year dental students on the subject at her alma mater. “It’s definitely more tough than what I was expecting,” Dr. Wilmore says, “but I wouldn’t trade it. I love my own practice and being my own boss...I’m building my future and building equity.” PT For more information on Heather M. Wilmore, DDS, PLLC, visit www.drwilmore.com
