Annaleigh
Dental Assistant
Unusual as it may seem, Annaleigh always enjoyed going to the dentist as a child, which eventually led her down a career path in the dental field. Growing up, she was actively involved in dance. With always being focused on facial expressions and smiling, she fell in love with the true beauty of a smile. She graduated from her dental assisting course in 2014 and started assisting in Orthodontics. Annaleigh strives to build relationships with her patients and finds their trust very important and rewarding. Going to work every day is a new experience and another opportunity to ensure her patients feel comfortable and leave happy. In the future, she hopes to pursue her dream of becoming a registered dental hygienist and starting a family. Outside of work, Annaleigh enjoys yoga, working out, and exploring the United States with her significant other, Austin.

Lissete
Dental Assistant
Hey! My name is Lissete Aburto, but most people just call me Liz. I recently moved to Madison in June 2017 from Beloit Wisconsin. I graduated from Beloit Memorial High school, where I participated in Latino Club, was a member of the varsity soccer team, and ran varsity cross country. After graduating, I decided to join the work force right away to explore what fields I enjoyed working in the most. After trying out the Dental Assistant position, I have realized that I enjoy gaining my patients trust and helping them feel more comfortable, given that not everyone’s favorite’s place is the dentist. I strive to one day become a Dental Hygienist, but first I want to continue gaining dental assisting experience!

Born in Los Angeles but raised in Milwaukee, Javier has been dedicated to helping his community and others since a young age. He has spent several years volunteering at homeless shelters, food pantries, nursing homes and other volunteer programs for children who are less fortunate. He found a passion in dentistry after working in E.R. dental assisting and community dental outreaches. Patient care and informing the community of oral hygiene are top priorities. In his free time, he very much enjoys video games, music, writing and most of all cooking! Whether it’s cooking for one or a family meal, cooking is a very passionate hobby. Having recently moved to Madison for a change of scenery, Javier enjoys everything Madison has to offer, from the farmers market to all the summer events!
