Hi and welcome! Im Maria and Ill help you in the treatment area. I set up for each persons procedure, assist Dr. Ammar with placing and removing orthodontic appliances, and offer patient care. I also take impressions and handle some lab duties.

I started working in the field in 2017, after having been certified as a dental assistant DATS. I started in a general practice, moved to a pediatric office, then found my professional home at Elite Orthodontics. I love being part of a team that helps people love their smiles!

I started my education in the Phillipines and I have been a dentist for over 30 years; which has made me very detailed oriented. About 6 years ago, I came to the United States to continue working in the dental field. Now that I am working with Dr. Ammar and my amazing team, I am so happy and estatic to help all the future patients.

I studied at Radford Universityand NVCC in which I recieved mydegree in Science. Currently, I am still working on expanding my knowledge more in science as well as orthodontics. Once I met Dr. Ammar, I was estatic! Dr. Ammar and my coworkers are truly talented and passionate in their fields. I am extremely grateful to have an awesome team who loves to work hard and make patients happy.

I have also volunteered at a physical therapist clinic - helping kids, adults, and elders get back in great shape. As an olympic weightlifter, I love to lift big weights and stay active as much as possible. On my off days, I typically love hanging out with friends, family and take my dog to the dog park!
