Briana

Scheduling and Financial Coordinator 

Briana excels at making our patients feel at home during their visits. She loves it when patients who used to be afraid of seeing the dentist look forward to coming to see us; she also loves when a patient regains the confidence to smile, because of the care we’ve provided. Understanding that financial aspects of dental care can be stressful, Briana strives to find terms that work with a patient’s budget. She also schedules appointment times that work with people’s busy lives.


Briana graduated with a B.S. from the University of the Pacific in Stockton. Outside the office, Briana enjoys running, baking, and gardening and spending quality time with her family and friends.

Sandra

Registered Dental Hygienist

Sandra’s calm and gentle demeanor help even the most anxious patients relax during their dental cleanings. She loves meeting families and watching the children grow up. Motivating each patient to take care of their oral health is always Sandra’s focus, and she loves the hugs from kids at the end of their visits. Sandra educates her patients about good home dental hygiene and how to keep their smile in great shape. Seeing a healthy smile at a recall visit is a highlight of Sandra’s day.


Sandra graduated with a B.A. from UC Berkeley. She formerly worked in the biotechnology sector before making a drastic career and completing the Dental Hygiene program at Foothill College. On the weekends, Sandra is likely out exploring the great hiking trails in the Bay Area. She enjoys finding new restaurants, spending time with family, and loves to travel.

Jade

Registered Dental Assistant

Jade greets everyone with a friendly, happy smile that makes them feel welcomed and reassured that they’re in the right place. She talks with patients about their dental worries and helps them work through their concerns. Working chairside, Jade assists our doctors.

Telling the patient what’s going on, and providing encouragement, makes every visit more enjoyable, Jade believes.
