Dr. Hilary PadaDOCTOR OF DENTAL Medicine (DMD)Location: Kelowna, BC (Canada)
Three decades ago, Dr. Hilary Pada was inspired to pursue a career in dentistry. While shadowing other dentists, she saw people, young and old, and recognized they were not just a mouth but a human being, body, and mind. Dentistry would become the unique balance of her talents and passions, her love of the fine details needed for the technical aspects of dentistry, as well as the interpersonal aspects of each day.
|
Her interest in Hospital, Emergency, and Complex Medical-Dental care motivated her to pursue the UBC-VGH General Dental Residency. Dr. Pada’s exposure to Oral Oncology piqued her interest, and brought her home to work at BCCancer in Kelowna.
For over two decades, Dr. Pada has served patients in private practice dentistry, as well as BCCancer. In 2003, she began post-graduate studies at the Kois Center Evidence Based Teaching Center. Dr. Hilary Pada furthered her commitment to learning and teaching by attaining Kois Mentor status in 2013. In 2018, she embarked on a new journey in Myofunctional Care and Integrative Oral Medicine. Dr. Pada began to see how airway restrictions and an unhealthy microbiome interconnected many conditions affecting our population. She has come to realize that a Myofunctional Care approach can redirect the trajectory of wellness and the natural genetic potential of all life forms. With her prior knowledge and experience in dentistry, Dr. Hilary Pada assembled a team of dedicated health professionals. Their combined passion for reaching the potential of optimal health, symmetry, and function became the catalyst for CO₂llaborative Care + Research.

Dr. Amy DavidsonDOCTOR OF DENTAL Medicine (DMD)Location: Clarkston, Michigan.
Dr. Amy Davidson is a licensed dentist who provides all the physiologic jaw and dental arch developmental services at Professional Dental of Clarkston. She also treats many common myofunctional / speech disorders as it relates to structures of the head and neck region. She is originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and completed her Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Pittsburgh in 1998. She continued her education at the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine and graduated in 2002.
|
Dr. Amy’s primary treatment concepts focus on the in-depth diagnosis of physiologic dental and skeletal malocclusions (“bad bites”). She understands if there is a physiologic problem with any area of the head and neck region, it requires a physiologic solution. Straight teeth do not always translate to a healthy TMJ, muscle/jaw balance, or airway health. These cutting-edge concepts are what Dr. Amy is passionate about in dentistry. Recognizing airway obstruction and sleep / breathing disorders in both her adult and pediatric patients is paramount. Dr. Amy believes in the value of early muscular skeletal intervention as it relates to facial development in young children. However, she evaluates each patient individually and understands that not all cases require early treatment. The most important aspect of Dr. Amy’s services is the value that she takes the time to see every one of her patients at each individual visit.
