SHAILJA DHIR ENSOR

I have wanted to be a dentist since I was ten years old. My pediatric dentist growing up hired me as a part-time dental assistant in his Columbia, MD office when I was 16 years old and I have been in the field ever since. My job description included assisting chairside, teaching oral hygiene, confirming appointments, and any other task that needed to be done. My part-time work continued until my junior year in dental school.

My favorite aspect of being a dentist is getting to know the patients and watching them grow up with healthy, happy smiles. I joined the team of Morgenstein and Levy, who embraced me as a new addition to their family. One of the many things I admired about Dr. Morgenstein was his passion for treating special needs adults and children, which has become an integral part of our practice.

Continuing Education

I am committed to attending continuing education meetings and seminars so I can provide my patients with advances in dental treatments and therapeutic options.

I am an active member of these professional affiliations. I stay current on innovative ideas and foster relationships with colleagues. I feel that my annual continuation credits should be varied and include but not limited to new prevention practices, up-to-date dental materials, and effective management and leadership.

When I am not working I love to be outside. I enjoy tennis, golf and biking. Our five children and two crazy dogs keep our household jumping.
