Behind every great dental practice is a team dedicated to patient comfort, education, and long-term health. Getting to know the people who care for your smile can make your visits feel more personal and reassuring. At Total Wellness Dental, patients benefit from a compassionate, experienced team, including Margarita, an experienced hygienist known for her gentle, patient-focused approach.
Experience You Can Trust: Meet Maggie
Margarita, or Maggie, joined our practice in October 2025 and brings over a decade of dental experience. Her background includes working as both a registered dental assistant and a registered dental hygienist, giving her a well-rounded understanding of patient care.
She completed her dental hygiene training at Pima Medical Institute, where she built a strong foundation in preventive and periodontal care. Today, she provides a full range of services, including cleanings, periodontal therapy, radiographs, sealants, fluoride treatments, and oral health education.
A Warm, Comfortable Approach to Care
Among Maggie’s many standout qualities is her ability to help patients feel at ease. This is especially true of those who may feel anxious about dental visits. Her calm, reassuring, and knowledgeable presence allows patients to relax while receiving the care they need. She focuses on clear communication and takes time to ensure that every patient feels heard and respected. By educating patients about their oral health and treatment options, she empowers them to take an active role in their care. This patient-centered approach helps build trust and encourages long-term consistency with preventive visits.
Her commitment to giving back is equally important. She regularly volunteers with Give Kids A Smile, helping provide dental care to children in need.
Supporting Health Beyond the Dental Chair
Maggie’s passion for wellness extends beyond the office. She enjoys cooking nutrient-focused meals and exploring ways nutrition supports both oral and overall health. She also values lifelong learning, often taking creative classes in skills like crocheting, drawing, and sewing.
