Catrina has been part of the practice for four years and brings a compassionate, educational approach to patient care. As a Registered Dental Hygienist and Expanded Functions Dental Assistant, she helps patients maintain healthy smiles through preventive care, including cleanings, dental X-rays, oral cancer screenings, gum disease treatment, and personalized oral health education. She especially enjoys teaching patients proper brushing and flossing techniques while making each visit as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
Catrina attended St. Louis Community College at Forest Park and believes every patient is unique and deserves to be treated with kindness, humor, and compassion. Her philosophy is simple: treat every patient the way you would want to be treated.
Outside of the office, Catrina enjoys spending time with her fiancé and their three cats, visiting the botanical garden and museums around St. Louis, and enjoying Mexican food. A fun fact about Catrina is that she grew up in San Diego, just about 100 feet from the ocean!
