Dr.Ammoun
Founder
I was born in Lebanon and moved to the United States in 2013 to pursue my dream of becoming a prosthodontist. I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and completed my specialty training at Loma Linda University in California, where I focused on advanced implant and restorative dentistry. Outside of dentistry, I’m passionate about astrophotography — capturing the beauty of the night sky has been a creative outlet for me since 2015. I also love spending time with my cat, Leo, and enjoying life here in Richmond with my family and friends. Whether in the office or behind the telescope, I’m always striving to combine precision, artistry, and passion in everything I do.

James
Dental Lab Technician
I’ve always loved creating ever since I was a child, which led me to earn a BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) from VCUarts (Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts). What began as an unexpected step into dental technology quickly became a passion, as I discovered the artistic and life-changing potential of recreating the beauty of nature through small, hyper-realistic restorations. With a background in fine art and sculpture, I bring a unique perspective to dental fabrication, applying both digital and hand skills with precision. My goal is to combine artistry, technical skill, and patient care to create restorations that are not only functional but truly life-changing.
