Dr. Austin discovered her passion for dentistry after being transformed by her dental experience in high school. Often the victim of jokes about her front teeth, Catrise got braces at the age of 15. By the time she graduated high school she was voted prettiest smile; completing a tremendous boost to her self-esteem.
After receiving her Doctorate in Dental Surgery, Catrise’s entrepreneurial spirit grew very strong and led her to quickly build a highly successful private practice through shrewd networking and employing guerrilla-marketing tactics in lieu of conventional methods.
Marketing aside, Dr. Austin is serious about oral hygiene and actively promotes preventive maintenance techniques among her patients. "In today's image-conscious society, a person's smile is very important," said Dr. Austin. "A smile is one of the first things people notice about you, and a beautiful smile can have a long-lasting positive impact on your life - socially, economically and psychologically."
