Portland's Whole-Body Practice Dentistry That Goes Deeper Meet Our Team

Our Dental Team

The Aesthetic Smiles team is committed to creating a warm, welcoming, and professional dental experience. From your first phone call to your treatment visits and follow-up care, our goal is to help you feel heard, respected, and supported.

We understand that patients may come to our office with dental anxiety, complex dental concerns, previous dental trauma, cosmetic goals, TMJ pain, sleep concerns, or uncertainty about where to begin. Our team takes pride in providing a calm, educational, and personalized experience so you can feel confident about your care.

Diana

I am proud to be part of the Aesthetic Smiles team since March 2024. In my role, I specialize in dental insurance, scheduling, and treatment coordination, with a strong focus on helping patients understand their dental benefits and treatment plans. I enjoy making what can sometimes feel like a complicated process easier to understand and ensuring our patients feel informed, comfortable, and confident in their care. Above all, I love advocating for our patients and helping them feel supported throughout their dental journey.

I’m originally from Bakersfield, California. I moved to Oregon seven years ago, and I am proud to now call Oregon home. Outside of work, I’m a wife, mom, and proud French Bulldog owner. My family is incredibly important to me, and I love spending time with my family

Janie

Hi! My name is Janie, and I’m excited to be the newest member of the team. I recently graduated from dental assisting school and am excited to continue growing my skills and knowledge in the dental field! I really enjoy getting to know and connect with patients and being part of a team that helps make their experience comfortable and positive. Outside of work, I enjoy going on nature walks, exploring new places, shopping, and spending time with my loved ones.

Jamie

I’ve been working in dentistry for 20 years as a certified EFDA (Expanded Functions Dental Assistant) and EFODA (Expanded Functions Orthodontic Assistant), and I’ve been fortunate to experience so many different areas of dentistry along the way. My background includes pediatrics, oral surgery, cosmetic dentistry, TMJ and sleep dentistry, orthodontics, and surgical implant placement.

I’ve been part of the Aesthetic Smiles family for more than six years, and one of the things I enjoy most is helping our patients both in the front office and chairside. I love getting to know our patients and helping make their experience as comfortable and seamless as possible.

Outside the office, I spend most of my time cheering on my kids at their competitive sporting events. As a family, we also look forward to our annual trip to Sunriver and attending University of Oregon Ducks football games. Go Ducks!

Kage

I’m a foreign-trained dentist who graduated from dental school in India and currently work as a Dental Assistant at Aesthetic Smiles. I enjoy being part of a practice where I can continue expanding my clinical knowledge, particularly in TMJ, airway, and sleep dentistry while I work toward obtaining my U.S. dental license.

I especially value the opportunity to learn from an experienced team and to support our patients throughout their care.

Outside of the office, I love traveling, exploring new places, and visiting national parks whenever I get the chance.
