“Prevention is the hallmark of pediatric dentistry. I want to help patients develop habits early in life that maintain good oral health. In addition, I am a strong believer of the age-one dental visit, and I want to make more parents aware of this.”
Ever since the age of twelve, Dr. Stovall has wanted to become a dentist. After wearing braces for four years as a child, she developed an interest in dentistry. Outside of work Dr. Stovall enjoys traveling, reading, dancing and spending time with her friends and family.
