Ferris Prado

Hygienist

I like working with kids and helping each one enjoy their dental experience. I provide oral hygiene services, including cleaning teeth. While I’m with a patient, I offer a lot of home dental hygiene guidance and encouragement to the child and their family.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling with my family, including my two wonderful children, Gage and Catie, along with reading.

Kristin

Hygienist

I am glad to be able to change the stigma on dentistry and make sure the kids have the best possible experience. Seeing kids leave with a smile brings me the greatest joy. I provide gentle cleanings and teach patients and families about oral health and how to establish a lifetime of good habits.

Mine is a Star Wars family. I have two boys, Luke and Kylo, and we have a dog named Vader. I also have an amazing husband, Toby. We enjoy spending our time at the lake kayaking, paddle-boarding, and swimming. I love being with all my family, BBQing, and going to the beach.

Julia

Hygienist

I love being playful with kids and making sure they are comfortable throughout their visit. In addition to cleaning teeth, I give oral hygiene instructions to patients and parents, so children grow up knowing how to take care of their smile.

My beautiful daughter is number one in my life. Cooking is my passionate hobby and I love spending extra time in the kitchen and coming up with new recipes. I also enjoy off-roading, hanging out at the river, and camping with friends and family.

Gabrielle

Registered Dental Assistant Expanded Functions 2

I love being able to keep our patients happy throughout their visit and send them away with smiles. Working in our clinic, I assist the doctors with various procedures, always attentive to our patient’s comfort and happiness.

Family keeps me busy outside the office. I am married and have three beautiful children. We love to road trip and explore new places, hang out at the ballfields cheering my boys on, and be outdoors as much as we can. My hobby and passion is floristry. I love getting creative and arranging flower pieces for special events and people.

Alexandra

Dental Assistant

I really enjoy interacting with kids and gaining their trust. In addition to guiding patients through their appointment, I assist chairside and handle cleaning and sterilization.

I am currently enrolled at RCC and am an athlete on the women’s tennis team. My hobbies include hiking, enjoying the beach, and spending time with family. I have a Chocolate Lab, named Logan, that I’ve had since I was seven years old. He is my ultimate best friend.
