Front Desk Team
Dina, Front Desk Manager
When you first walk through the doors at Prime Dental, expect to be greeted first by my smiling face! As a front desk manager, I enjoy interacting with each and every patient and I pride myself on making them feel comfortable when they arrive for their dental appointment. I have been in the dental field for over 17 years and I feel blessed to have been part of this team since August of 2007. I love working at Prime Dental because we all work together in giving our patients the best experiences possible. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my two boys, working out, watching movies, concerts, art, pets, and taking road trips with my family.
Carla, Front Desk Excecutive
Hello! My name is Carla. I was born in California and raised in Arizona. Tucson has always been home for me. I’m very outgoing and I love connecting with people. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and baking at home, hiking, riding my bike, listening to music, and spending time with my 2 dogs and wonderful boyfriend.
Jaidee, Front Office Executive
Hi, my name is Jaidee. I’m originally from Nogales, Arizona, where I lived most of my life before moving to Tucson at the end of my freshman year of high school. My mom worked in a dental office throughout much of her life, so the dental field always felt like a natural fit for me.
I’ve been in dentistry for more than five years, and I truly enjoy interacting with patients—getting to know each one personally and helping them understand their insurance information and treatment plans.
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my husband and family. I have an English bulldog named Thor, and I’m also a big Disney fanatic!
Hygiene Team
Emily, Registered Dental Hygienist
Hi! My name is Emily. I received my Bachelor of Science (Dental Hygiene) in 2006 at Clayton State University in Morrow, GA. I have been a practicing dental hygienist for 16 years and have had the opportunity to work and gain new skills in Georgia, California, and Arizona. Helping patients understand the science behind what we do and recommend is extremely important to me. I am passionate about the connection between oral and systemic health. As a cancer survivor, I have experienced firsthand the role oral health plays in overall well-being and the challenges of maintaining it during illness. In my downtime, I enjoy lifting weights, reading, cooking, and spending time with my family, friends, and my two dogs.
November, Registered Dental Hygienist
Hi! My name is November, and I was born and raised right here in sunny Tucson, Arizona. I’ve been a dental hygienist for over 10 years, and I absolutely love what I do! As a Tucson native and a graduate of Northern Arizona University, I take pride in helping our community stay healthy and confident. I’m very passionate about people, wellness, and making every patient’s day a little brighter -one smile at a time!
When I’m not in the office, you can find me chasing the next adventure (and my two energetic boys) all around the states and overseas! We love our adventures! Whether it’s camping or exploring abandoned mines, we’re soaking up the beautiful desert sunsets.
I can’t wait to meet you and make you smile! -Literally!!

My happiest moments are spent with my family, gardening, and home improvement projects.
Melissa, Dental Assistant
Hi, my name is Melissa! I was born and raised right here in Tucson, Arizona. I completed my dental assistant training at Pima Medical Institute and have been a dental assistant for 19 years. Throughout my career, I’ve truly enjoyed meeting new people and helping them when they need it most. My favorite part of dentistry is seeing patients’ beautiful new smiles after full mouth restorations—it’s so rewarding.
