On a personal level, I have a big family. I have 6 children and 6 granddaughters who are all under the age of 4. I babysit at least 4 of them on my days off. My life at home, as you can imagine, is very busy. My office and the people I work with are amazing. I love the days Im in the office with this crew. I get to work with some of the most caring individuals, professionally and personally. I love being a hygienist and cant imagine doing anything else. My Patients are important to me, whether it be the health of their mouth or stress in their lives, I will be there for them. So please come and see me for a cleaning. Let us get to know you!
Tara graduated from Lakeland Community College with her associates in Dental Hygiene in 1996. She graduated among the top in her class earning several awards, including the coveted Golden Scaler Award for outstanding clinical performance. She has been with Grinberg Dental Care since 2007.
I take pride not only in my work, but also investing in my patients lives. I love getting to know people, not just as my patients, but as lifelong friends. I enjoy learning about their families and also sharing a bit of my life with them. I want all my patients to feel at home, and relaxed with me. There is no reason to dread coming to the dentist!
When Tara is away from the dental office, she can be found capturing and preserving memories of many as a photographer with Twin Lenses Photography, and also making memories with her 3 children. Twins who are 12 and an older son who is 22! When shes not staying busy with all of that, you can also find her spending time with friends, reading, refurbishing old furniture, and catching up on her favorite shows, This is Us and The Walking Dead (theres nothing like a good ol fashioned zombie movie).
