About

Welcome!

I help parents create positive dental experiences for their kids so that they can avoid the vicious cycle of dental fear and anxiety and join the cavity-free club for good.

I’m Alyssa! I’m here to educate, empower, and minimize the overall stress you feel as a parent one tooth at a time.

As a dental hygienist and mom, I know the struggle of taking care of your little one’s smile… I also know a few tricks to help you make it more fun and effective!

I have been working in dentistry since 2005. Since becoming a Dental Hygienist in 2011, I’ve had the joy of taking care of tiny teeth around the world in the United States, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.

From the dental chair to mobile bus clinics, schools and hospitals, orphanages, pop-up dental clinics, and within the walls of my own home, I have learned a LOT about the impact a positive dental experience has on a child’s oral health trajectory.

I created the Tiny Teeth Children’s Books and resources to help parents create positive dental experiences for their kids and to ease the many struggles that come with taking care of tiny teeth.

I’ll be here supporting you through every step of your little one’s tooth journey and look forward to watching you become the dental pro of your own home!

Ready to make a trip to the dentist fun and fear-free for your child?
