Meet Dr. Morales & Dr. Moore
Dentists in Fredericksburg, VA
Dr. Mary Morales
CEO/Founder
As Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Avila Management Services, Dr. Mary Morales brings over 25 years of experience in the dental operations management field. As of January 2021, the new owner of Heritage Dental, Dr. Morales is driven to continue a dental care environment that always puts the patients’ needs first.
Her passion to provide a “patient first” culture in healthcare was cultivated by helping communities underserved during an externship in the Amazon Rainforest. This experience opened her eyes to the communities that are in need of basic healthcare and education. In February 2022 Dr. Morales founded the non-profit, Smiles that Care, with the goal of reaching underserved communities domestically and abroad.
In her spare time, Dr. Morales continues to practice dentistry during her many mission trips worldwide. Such as her trip in early 2020, where she provided dental care to patients in Guatemala. She is excited for future trips, such as her trip to Ethiopia during the summer of 2023. To check out her latest trips and future projects, or to see how you can help, please visit smilesthatcare.org
She strives to grow personally and professionally by attending continuing education courses to keep up with the latest techniques and provide the best dental care to the underserved.
Dr. Moore completed her dental education in Brazil, followed by a General Practice Residency Program where she served as Chief Resident at Northside Medical Center Hospital in Youngstown, OH.
One of Dr. Moore’s commitments is to continue learning the latest and most advanced techniques in general, cosmetic, and implant dentistry. She has pursued advanced training at nationally renowned postgraduate training centers including the Spear Institute in Scottsdale, AZ, and the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies. She is also a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, a title awarded to her due to her commitment to continuous learning to better serve her patients. Dr. Moore is a board member of the American Academy of Clear Aligners and recently became a mentor for Invisalign. She is excited to learn more and help other doctors give their patients the smiles they want.
