Eventually, in 2009, she established her own clinic here in Newark.

She makes sure that every patient is given the time and attention that they need. She also listens to their concerns and fully explains the treatment plan before any procedures.

To keep up with the latest trends and innovations in the dental care, Dr. Bailon attends and participates in many conventions and conferences.
