She has attained the presti­gious level of LVI graduate in the cosmetics curriculum at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, which is one of the highest honors that can be achieved in the field. Her dedication to pursuing the latest developments and technology in dentistry has earned her a Fellowship at The Academy of General Dentistry and The Academy of Comprehensive Esthetics. She is a member of The American Dental Association, The Texas Dental Association, The Greater Houston Dental Society, and serves on the Advisory Board for Smile Source, an independent practice management group. Additionally, she has lectured at numerous seminars and is a mentor to countless dentists across the country. She recently finished writing her first text textbook.

Dr. Frazar has performed smile makeovers on the Deborah Duncan Show and for battered women in the Smiles for Life program.

He completed a three-year residency training program in periodontics and implant surgery at the University of Connecticut. This training helped him gain extensive experience in performing minimally invasive techniques with dental implants and periodontal plastic surgery for optimal outcomes in esthetics and function. Mardini also has a master of dental science from the University of Connecticut so he may better understand the progression of periodontal disease. At UConn John Dempsey Hospital, Mardini became proficient in administering parenteral anesthesia.

Growing up in a family of physicians and dentists, patient care has always been of importance to Mardini. He stated, “I really enjoy the mix of science and surgical hand skills that dentistry offers.”
