Positive growth
Construction was completed on Healthy Smiles in December 2009. The new building affords Dr. Roberts and her staff the flexibility and space to see more patients and perform more procedures while working fewer hours. "If there is a cavity, I can go ahead and do it that day. That alone has increased production," said Dr. Roberts.
Dr. Roberts currently has one associate, Justin Jones, DDS, and she would like to add an additional associate in the near future. She'd also like to bring new specialties, like endodontics, to her practice, saving her patients the long drive to Oklahoma City for referrals.

Though the practice opened during challenging economic conditions, growth has been increasingly positive. "We have already weathered the storm," said Dr. Roberts. "We are going to continually improve on production and everything is going to go up from here."
Dr. Roberts' husband returned from Iraq in June 2010, just in time to enjoy the flourishing practice she has built. "Building a new practice and having my husband overseas was probably the most stressful time of my life, but I had faith that everything was going to be all right," she said. "And we came through it just fine."
For other doctors contemplating a new practice, Dr. Roberts offers a recommendation: "Close your eyes and just do it. Have faith in your abilities."
