In his spare time, Dr. Spears enjoys spending time with his wife Melanie and his son Jake as well as fishing, snowboarding, and golf.

Dr. Asani Palamaru

Asani Palamaru, DDS, brings a diverse and compassionate approach to Commonwealth Dentistry. Born in Romania and relocating to America at the age of 10, she grew up in Michigan and earned her dental degree from the University of Detroit Mercy in 2019.

Dr. Palamaru is dedicated to continuous learning and professional development. She has completed numerous continuing education courses, including clear aligner therapy and Botox therapy for treating myofascial pain, headaches, and clenching. As a member of the Spear Education Faculty Club, she collaborates with fellow dentists and specialists to discuss complex cases and enhance her skills.

Specializing in restorative dentistry, Dr. Palamaru excels in composite restorations, veneers, and crowns. She has a particular affinity for treating pediatric patients and utilizing therapeutic Botox to manage headaches and grinding. Her passion lies in building strong connections with her patients, understanding their lives, and helping them achieve their dental goals.

Outside of her professional life, Dr. Palamaru enjoys an active lifestyle, including hiking, running, and camping. She cherishes spending time with her husband, one-year-old son, and their dog, exploring the great outdoors and traveling together. Dr. Palamaru’s commitment to her patients and her love for adventure make her a well-rounded and dedicated dental professional.

Dr. Jeff Beyer

Dr. Beyer grew up just outside Buffalo, NY, and attended Penn State University for his B.S. degree in Physiology. After earning his DDS degree (Magna Cum Laude) in 1995 from the VCU School of Dentistry, he enrolled in the Orthodontic residency program at VCU and completed his training in 1997. He remained at VCU for an additional two years in the Department of Orthodontics as a full-time Assistant Professor where he directed the dental student orthodontic clinic, maintained a private practice, and trained the orthodontic residents.

In 1999, Dr. Beyer founded Commonwealth Orthodontics and maintains a full-time private practice in Midlothian and Colonial Heights. He was one of the very first Orthodontists to be trained in Invisalign and offer it in private practice, and maintains active professional memberships in the American, Southern, and Virginia Associations of Orthodontists and the American Dental Association (ADA). Dr. Beyer also had the honor and privilege of serving as President of the Medical College of Virginia Orthodontic Education and Research Foundation in 2005. Dr. Beyer and Commonwealth Orthodontics have been selected as the Best Orthodontist in Richmond by the Richmond Times-Dispatch for multiple years.

Outside of the office, you won’t find Dr. Beyer around town much, as he and his family enjoy traveling around the United States in their RV. If you are ever looking for advice as to where to travel, chances are he has been there (or at least somewhere close!). He also enjoys collecting pinball machines and arcade games — and he even has machines from his collection in both offices for patients to enjoy.
