Natalie - Registered Dental Hygienist
Natalie grew up 20 minutes south of Denver, Colorado. She moved to Alaska in February of 2022 specifically to join the Denali Dental Care team! She served a mission for her church in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala for 18 months from March 2014- September 2015 and she speaks fluent Spanish! She then moved to Utah and lived in various cities from June 2016-February 2022.
She attended Fortis College in Salt Lake City, Utah where she received her degree in Dental Hygiene. She is licensed in the administration of Local Anesthesia and Nitrous Oxide and has her CPR/BLS certification. Natalie always wanted to be a Dental Hygienist because she always LOVED going to the dentist and didn’t have her first cavity until she was in her mid twenties! She is a current member of the ADHA (American Dental Hygiene Association) and is always looking for continuing education opportunities to make sure she can be the best provider for her patients. She really enjoys getting to know her patients and cherishes the relationships she cultivates with them. They aren’t just her patients, they’re her friends!
Before becoming a RDH, she attended Paul Mitchell the School in Provo, Utah and became a Licensed Cosmetologist. She is the second to the youngest of 5 children and has 11 nieces and nephews! She prides herself on being their favorite “Aunt Nat”. In her free time she can be found hiking in the beautiful mountains of Alaska (or anywhere!), baking anything from scratch (especially cakes!), decorating sugar cookies with royal icing, serving in her church, singing, playing board/card games with friends, or looking for her next big adventure! Natalie would love to help you feel more confident and healthy by cleaning up that smile!
