As a chairside assistant, it is my duty to see that our patients are comfortable and to help each procedure go smoothly and efficiently. I also help keep the lab running smoothly and do most of the fabrication of retainers, appliances, and mouthguards. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is seeing smiles transformed, whether during one or two procedures, or over two full years of orthodontic care. I love seeing peoples confidence and self-image change because of their smile.

I am a person who enjoys life and I stay busy all the time. I am a very active member of my church. My life has been very fulfilled with raising three children who have given me grandchildren & great-grandchildren. I love spending time with them every chance I get.

Im one of the friendly faces that greet each patient when they come into the office. I love getting to know our patients and working with our amazing team. We are much more like a family than coworkers.

I live in Columbus with my husband Tyler. We have one son Zeppelin who is attending college & pursuing his dreams. We love living in Columbus and being a part of this community. In our spare time, we enjoy traveling and seeing new places.

I am responsible for the financial aspect & human resources of our practice. I enjoy working in dentistry and I am thankful for the opportunity to work with such an amazing dentist, Dr. Herron! I graduated with a major in accounting and minor in business administration from Missouri Southern State University.

My goal is to make each patient feel welcome and comfortable during their visit to our office. I love being part of such a great team where everyone works hard to make YOU feel special. My husband Ty & I live in Kansas where we raise our two kids, Kendall and Brett. We enjoy watching them in their various activities and spending time with our families.

As a child, I knew that one day I would work in a profession helping others. As a dental assistant, I get to do just that. My job is to ensure that procedures go as smoothly as possible for the patient, as well as for the doctor. It is such a blessing to work with an amazing group of individuals.

Helping others has always been one of my passions, and my job as a dental hygienist allows me to do that every day! I truly enjoy getting to help people improve their oral health, as well as their overall health. It is a blessing to be able to do so with such an amazing and professional team of co-workers.

I have been married to my high-school sweetheart Adam for almost ten years, and we were blessed with our first child in 2015. He is our whole world and we love watching him grow and learn! In our free time we enjoy the outdoors and traveling to our hometown of Dodge City.

I have a huge passion for helping others achieve straight teeth with no braces with the first name in clear orthodontic treatment, Invisalign. During my patients journey to straight teeth, I love being their copilot through the bumps in the road and the smooth sailing of their treatment.

As a Dental Hygienist, Im not only committed to continually improving my standard of care to better serve our patients, but also educating and encouraging them to maintain good periodontal health with unique, personalized oral health care services. I enjoy spending my free time with my husband, Willie, and daughter, Leighton.

As a dental hygienist I very much enjoy establishing relationships and friendships with all of my patients! Educating and providing quality care to patients is my number one priority. Everyone should leave us with the happy, healthy smile they deserve!

For ultimate camouflage, tray or aligner systems offer a modern straightening method. A series of clear plastic trays are made using 3D digital models of your teeth. Medical-grade plastic without wires, metal, springs, or rubber bands gently move your teeth into place. Continuous pressure on specific teeth with each aligner means less discomfort and, in many cases, shortened treatment times. Your provider dispenses several sets of aligners at a time, allowing you to change to a new tray at home every two weeks.

Removable trays can be set aside for short periods allowing for normal eating and cleaning. Enjoying an apple without the intrusion of brackets and wires works well for many patients. And the smooth plastic surface offers a comfort level to the tongue and cheeks unequaled by other forms of straightening.

Committing to consistent wear, at least 22 hours each day, helps ensure the success of your treatment. While clear aligners work extremely well for adults, a responsible teen can be a suitable candidate too.

While aligner treatment works for 90% of straightening cases, some tooth movements may not be possible. Todays orthodontics offer more choices than ever. Dr. Rob Herron can help you discover the path to a straighter smile.
