Skill and compassion go hand in hand when providing exceptional patient care. As dental professionals, we stay up to date on the latest advancements in dentistry in order to provide the most current treatment options for our patients. As dentists, we recognize that our patients are unique individuals who have placed a great deal of trust in ourselves and our team. That is just one reason why we value each and every patient relationship.
With my wonderful staff, I enjoy helping patients achieve beautiful and healthy smiles. My private practice of 18 years, is conveniently located in Irvine, off the 5 freeway and Culver Drive. I am a graduate of the University of California, San Francisco Dental School. I am affiliated with the ADA, American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, Academy of Operative Dentistry, and the Faculty Club of Spear Education. I hold a part-time faculty position at UCLA Dental School, where I help educate a select group of senior students at the Venice Dental Center. I also hold a Preferred Provider status with Invisalign. My staff and I have a passion for helping people suffering from Sleep Apnea and other sleep disorders. As a dentist, I am able to offer oral appliance therapy for those who are intolerant to a CPAP or those suffering from chronic snoring. I grew up in south Orange County where I reside with my wife and three children. I enjoy fishing, hiking, martial arts, and coaching my son's baseball team.

I have been with Heritage Family Dental for 18 years as part of the front office team. I currently reside in Irvine, a short commute, and enjoy spending time with my 3 beautiful nieces, watching football Go Cowboys!!!, snowboarding and all water sports. I have built a wonderful rapport with so many of our patients and I look forward to seeing them on their dental visits.
Im a registered dental assistant and have been part of this team for almost 20 years and, in fact, one of the first hired dental assistants when Dr. Clibon opened this practice. I currently work at the front desk and have been doing this for about 8 years. I still help the doctors as an assistant at times when they need help. Our patients are like family to me. I have a great relationship with our patients and thats what makes Heritage Family Dental so special.
I have been a dental hygienist since 2002 and havehad the pleasure of being part of Heritage family dental team since 2003. I love being a dental hygienist. My favorite part of my job is building rapport with my patients. I believe dentistry involves a lot of psychology and I am very sensitive to the fact that many people have had previously traumatizing dental experiences. I strive to alleviate their anxiety and create a lasting connection with my patients. Patient education is another important aspect of my job. I like to explain things in a way that is relatable to my patients. Im a member of the California Dental Hygienist Association (CDHA) and I attend meetings for the Dental Hygiene Study Club of OC, quarterly. Continuing education is important to me so I can provide my patients with the most current research.
In my free time I like to camp, hike,and attend music festivals with my boyfriend Josh and my friends. I really love to travel. My goal is to get as many stamps on my passport as possible. I am an animal lover. I have a pug named Rudy.
I grew up in Oklahoma and Im an OU graduate. My goal is to provide the importance of dental hygiene and their systemic health leading to a beautiful set of teeth for life. In my 30 years of dental hygiene (I started when I was 4), I developed a close bond with my amazing patients and the incredible office staff which over the years have helped form the person that I have become. Besides work, my hobbies are Vegas and food!
Ive been a dental assistant since 2012. I love what I do. I am happy to have the opportunity to help patients address their needs. Im glad to be part of an office where we offer the latest technology for the comfort of our patients, and have the opportunity to utilize my bilingual skills.

It's been over twenty years that I know Dr. Clibon and he is absolutely the most caring, humble, patient dentist I've ever known. All his procedures are so smooth that I don't feel anything even though I don't get to he numbed. He is absolutely the BEST.

I have been going to Dr Clibon for about 10 years His whole office is very friendly and efficient. I just had a crown done on a tooth that had a crack in it for a couple years. It was extremely sensitive, but Dr Clibon was so patient and took the extra time to stop for more novocaine on several occasions to ensure I was comfortable and it turned out great.

When our longtime dentist finally retired, we went through a couple different dental offices who were more concerned about our insurance than our teeth. Then we discovered Heritage Family Dentist, less than a mile from our house. We found they had great dentists, hygienists and staff. They are all super friendly, on top of being good at their jobs, so that's a bonus! Christy has been super helpful with all the insurance paperwork, which is always great. Even though we have now moved south, we drive the 12 miles up the Santa Ana Freeway - through the infamous El Toro Y - because they are worth it! We have recommended them to our friends as well.
