I am a dental assistant 10 years in the making. I realized that orthodontics was what I really enjoyed doing and I have been exclusively an orthodontic assistant for about 4 years ago. Along with my beautiful wife, who is also in the dental field, on my free time football I have 3 amazing kids. I like to run, watch and cook out.

I have been working in the dental field for 50 years, initially as a dentist in my home town of nuevo Laredo. When I moved to the united states I embarked on a new journey and have been practicing dental assisting for 10 years. I specialize in making aligners which is the most modern form of orthodontics. It makes me so happy to provide care to patients and make them feel comfortable when they come to the Smile Shoppe

I graduated from Bruni high school and soon after found my calling in the dental field. I am a registered dental assistant and love orthodontics. I enjoy working with our patients and giving them a great experience every time they come to our office interacting with patients and seeing their smiles transform is very rewarding. I am happily married and on my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and my fur baby.

I have been in the administrative field for 4 years. I enjoy providing an enhanced patient experience and giving our patients a warm welcome to the Smile Shoppe. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and watching harry potter. My favorite part of working at the Smile Shoppe is being close to my true passion, dentistry!

I am currently a health administration major and have been in the customer service field for about 4 years. I love to help patients feel welcomed at the Smile Shoppe. I enjoy helping to facilitate patient's treatment and help the office run smoothly. Some of my hobbies include playing guitar, drinking coffee, and I am a huge Star Wars fan.

I have been in the dental field as a registered dental assistant for 6 years. I am passionate about orthodontics and love seeing our patient's smiles transform. I am the mother of 2 wonderful kids and I am an animal lover. My husband is my biggest supporter. In my free time I enjoy crafting. I also enjoy running and biking in my free time.

Orthodontic care changes every part of our lives. Straight, properly aligned teeth are easier to keep clean and decrease the likelihood of future dental disease. Properly positioned teeth also improve your bite and decrease the stress on your jaw and facial muscles.

Of course, straight teeth mean a beautifully radiant smile that improves your quality of life, too! Your smile affects your social and your emotional life: when you know your smile looks incredible, youre more confident, outgoing, and happier!
