Dentistry has also challenged me to be a better leader and better person. Working with lots of different types of people helps me to be more empathetic and better at seeing the world from multiple viewpoints. I hope to make a difference in my patients lives by listening to them and making them feel comfortable and welcome in our practice.

I decided to become a dentist because I had a passion for helping people, science, and artistry. After attending Michigan State University, I graduated from Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry with my Doctorate of Dental Surgery, and my journey into dentistry began.

Since completing my formal education, I have participated in numerous forms of continuing education to be more creative in finding the best treatment options for my patients. Continual learning gives me a more in-depth understanding of what dental treatment options are available and how I can support patients in discovering their best option.

I am a member of our local Spear study group and have taken multiple continuing education courses and workshops with Spear Education, the Dawson Academy, and the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. I have achieved my fellowship with the Academy of General Dentistry as well.

My wonderful husbandprovided all the photography in the office, so make sure to check it out the next time you visit! We have a young daughter who is my mini-me and keeps us all on our toes. Our family wouldnt be complete without our old man cat named Loren, who is at least 15 years old.

When I have free time, I enjoy running, hiking, reading, and chasing after my daughter. We enjoy traveling whenever possible and I enjoy learning about the history and culture of each new place we visit. We are slowly introducing our daughter to travel so that she can join us on our adventures. My daughter and I are also experimenting with baking, which can be interesting with a small child!

We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.

I have worked in the dental field since 2000 and have been involved in many aspects of the field during that time. I started working for Dyras Dental in 2014 as the financial coordinator and then became the office manager in 2021. I enjoy seeing the many generations of families we have in our practice. I look forward to many more years at our office and hope to make your experience here as pleasant as possible.

I met my husband at a previous dental employer. My father-in-law liked to say, 'See, going to the dentist can be a good thing!' We have two children and two wonderful grandchildren. We enjoy kayaking and spending time as a family.

I started my journey in healthcare back in 2014, where I quickly found my passion for helping people. My previous job introduced me to the intricate world of dental billing, and I will forever be thankful for the knowledge as it has led me to my position here as financial coordinator. I am excited for my future here at our office, and to broaden my experience in the dental field.

I am currently engaged to my high school boyfriend, and we have a beautiful baby boy together. My finance' and I both grew up in the small city of Grand Ledge and are looking forward to building a happy life there with our little family.

I have been at Dyras Dental since 2012. I enjoy working in the dental field and making our patients feel safe and comfortable during every visit. The best part of my job is seeing the look on a patients face when we have changed their smile! I also love working with this team. We are more like a family, in my opinion! Working here has made me a better person, both personally and professionally.

I am married to my high-school sweetheart and we have two amazing daughters, Skylar and Saydee. I absolutely adore our two Dachshunds, Gizmo and Sheldon. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, and doing projects around the house.

I have been in the dental field for more than 25years, most of which Ive spent right here! I have enjoyed working with Dr. Dyras and our experienced team for many years. We work well with each other on a professional level, but the friendships I have made with everyone over the years have been one of the greatest things about my job. Of course, I also enjoy seeing our patients happy and confident with their new smiles.

I grew up in the Upper Peninsula and moved to the Lansing area after attending college in California. I have wonderful twin daughters who are attending LCC and a Shih Tzu named Lucy. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, camping, and spending time with my family.

I began my career as a dental assistant in 2010 and continued my education to become a dental hygienist. I joined Dyras Dental in 2017 and feel so fortunate to work with such an amazing, encouraging group of people. Patient care is my number-one priority; I love giving people a positive dental experience!

I graduated from Lansing Community Colleges dental hygiene program in May 2013. I went on to complete my bachelors in dental hygiene with minors in public health and education from Siena Heights University. In 2015, I found my forever home, which shortly thereafter became Dyras Dental! I absolutely love patient education. I am a firm believer in the fact that you cannot fix things or change habits unless you understand why you are doing it. There is nothing more rewarding than helping a patient return to optimal dental health and seeing that smile on their face.

I am newly married to a wonderful husband. I have three amazing grown daughters who have brought me three great sons. I have a German Shepherd who just loves to go on walks, ride in the car, and go camping and swimming. And last but not least, I have a new granddaughter who makes my heart absolutely ecstatic.

I graduated from Lansing Community Colleges dental hygiene program in May 2014 and went on to complete my bachelors degree in dental hygiene from the University of Michigan. I started working at Dyras Dental in September 2015 and love working with the awesome team here. I enjoy working with a wide variety of patients and building relationships with the patients and team, in addition to learning about new advancements and technologies in the dental field.

Dyras Dental is committed to integrity and maintaining the legacy of our multiple generations of patients. We help our patient family visualize and value their dental health and esthetic possibilities. Our patients value our guidance and willingly partner with us in assuming responsibility for a lifetime of dental health. Our team supports each other through committing to continual growth and honest communication in a warm and friendly environment. We achieve our goals while having fun!

In addition, we will utilize the latest dental technology, continue to introduce new services, and deliver care with a whole-body health approach so each patient can receive the highest quality of comprehensive care and achieve lasting wellness.

Our team is focused on creating the best possible experience for our patients and making everyone feel welcome and at home. We have a lot of fun in our office and enjoy working together as a team. Our team enjoys being challenged and finding new ways to grow, improve our clinical skills, and incorporate the latest technology.

We tailor each treatment plan to the individual patient and work with our patients to discover the best options for them. We involve our patients in the discovery process so we can learn their motivations and customize treatment recommendations to best meet their needs and goals.

We keep on top of the latest technology and are constantly seeking out further education to be able to incorporate the best that dentistry has to offer into our practice. Our patients can take advantage of cosmetic dentistry with Lumibrite teeth whitening, Lumineers veneers, and Invisalign clear aligner orthodontics, as well as a variety of general and restorative services. We also offer solutions for sleep apnea and snoring!
