A firm believer that preventive care and education are the keys to optimal dental health, Dr. Menrai strives to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”.  That is why she focuses on thorough exams – checking the overall health of teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.
