Her approach
How Dr. Back plans a case
Dr. Back plans each case around the patient in front of her: face shape, age, and how the teeth are actually used. No two people get the same set.
The practice describes it as the eye of an artist and the hand of a surgeon. She sculpts the smile for the individual, taking face shape, age, sex and personality into account, and takes pride in a result that is one of a kind rather than a standard set of teeth.
She insists on perfection. Patients say the same thing back: a perfectionist who will not rest until they are satisfied, whether the case is veneers, crowns or a full makeover.
She has practiced in Sarasota since 1995, in cosmetic and restorative dentistry. Restoring a patient's smile is the part she finds personally rewarding.

Dr. Back is very warm and approachable. She gives a thorough exam. I never felt rushed and she answered all my questions professionally. She takes a clear interest in the needs and well-being of her patients. I highly recommend her. All of the staff at her office are equally kind, welcoming and professional as well.

Recognition
NewBeauty Top Doctor
NewBeauty has named Dr. Back a Top Doctor. The awards are on the shelf in the practice, engraved with her name. The work behind them is in the smile gallery and in what patients say.
Outside the practice
The discipline behind the dentistry
Dr. Back is a competitive bodybuilder. She trains year round and has competed at state and national level.
Competing is a plan held for months and measured the whole way: the training, the diet, the focus, every session kept whether she feels like it or not. On stage the result is judged on symmetry and proportion, up close, by people looking for the flaw.
Dentistry asks for exactly that. A case is planned in advance, measured in millimetres, and then looked at closely in daylight by the person wearing it. The attention to detail, the determination and the refusal to settle are the same in both, and they are what patients get at the chair. Her approach to a case follows from it.
