Maria has been in the dental field for over 7 years. She began her dental career as a dental assistant and quickly moved on to treatment planning, insurance billing, and managing an oral surgery & implant center in the South Bay. Through her journey around various roles in a dental practice, Maria developed a love for hands-on surgical assisting and actively being able to bring a calming touch to a patient’s natural nervous response when undergoing dental treatment. Ultimately she is able to perform any specified role in a dental practice with a calm, collected, and detail-oriented mindset. Maria thoroughly sees the value in practicing Complete Health Dentistry and being a part of an office that prioritizes a patient’s overall well-being is truly inspiring to her.

Coming from a big close-knit family, Maria has always valued family time and just started her own little family. Her husband and baby daughter join her on nature walks and hikes. 

Although her husband is a born and raised beach boy from the South Bay, Maria still has love for the Mountain scenery that she spent her childhood in with her family. Maria also enjoys reading and playing volleyball and hopes to share that with her daughter as she grows into her own little personality.
