Meet the Dental Team Heber City

Taylor – Dental Hygienist

Taylor is originally from Kentucky! When it came time for her studies, she chose to attend Bellarmine University and Salt Lake Community College. Now, she has her Local Anesthetic Licensure, and she’s also completed continuing education courses on periodontology. For her, the best thing about being a dental hygienist is having the opportunity to spend time with patients, get to know them personally, and help them feel empowered and safe in the treatment chair.

Taylor made the move to Utah with her husband in 2015. When she isn’t at our office or spending time with family, she enjoys practicing yoga, running on trails, and reading. Here’s a fun fact about her: she has her paragliding license!

Carolina – Front Desk

Carolina was born in Mexico before moving to Heber City when she was six years old. As one of our newest members, she loves being able to learn new things every day while working alongside an amazing dental team. The best part for her is simply getting to know more about the world of dentistry.

At home, Carolina is a mother of three wonderful little boys. During summer, they enjoy going on camping trips and crawfishing, while winters are spent watching the snowfall as they sip hot chocolate most of the day. In her spare time, she likes to read, hike, and go out dancing whenever she gets the chance!

Lael – Dental Assistant

Lael is from Boise, and she is certified as a dental assistant as well as a radiology technician. One of her favorite parts of working at TimberRidge Dental is getting to learn new things on a daily basis and putting that knowledge to good use helping our patients.

Lael is the third of four children and considers her siblings to be her best friends. She has taken up residence in Orem with her husband. When she has a spare moment, she likes to dance, read, and watch movies. Additionally, she loves learning languages and is fluent in German.

Maya – Dental Assistant

Hailing from Grass Valley in California, Maya attended UVU, which is where she earned her Dental Assistant Certification. She is also certified in radiology. She enjoys getting the chance to know our patients better, and she loves being able to see what their smiles look like before and after their treatments.

Maya’s family includes her parents and her three brothers. Outside of the office, she can often be found swimming, off-roading, surfing, and traveling. One interesting fact about her is that she drives a manual car.

Alexus – Dental Assistant

Alexus has been with us for her entire dental career so far, and she loves meeting new people and helping them feel more confident. She completed her training at Utah Valley University.

Alexus has a young son who is her world, and she loves doing anything outdoors with him, whether it’s fishing, camping, or just soaking up the sun.
