Vieno, Pediatric Director

Dental team captain Vieno

Vieno has a passion for leadership, and she says that the most rewarding part of her job is coaching our team to be as successful as possible. This all serves to benefit our patients! She is a registered dental assistant through Everest College, and she has also taken advanced training in leadership and coaching and attended multiple Tony Robbins seminars.

Vieno comes from a large family and is the oldest of nine children. She and her husband are the proud parents of two adult children, a daughter, and a son, as well as a beloved dog and cat. On the weekends, she likes to go boating, wake surfing, paddle boarding, and jet skiing. Vieno also loves anything that has to do with Christmas or Hallmark.

Elizabeth, Front Office/Registered Dental Assistant

Elizabeth has close to two decades of experience working in the field of dentistry, and she loves creating positive change in the lives of our patients. She first studied at Chabot College before attending Western Career College for her certification as a Registered Dental Assistant. She is also certified in sealants, coronal polishing, X-ray, and CPR, and she regularly seeks continuing education to refine her skills.

Outside of dentistry, Elizabeth lives with her high school sweetheart husband and their two beautiful children. Together, they enjoy going on small trips and taking their kids out to the park to be outdoors as much as possible. One interesting fact about her: while she might be energetic and talkative at work, she’s typically shy outside of work.

Karina, Registered Dental Assistant

Dental assistant Rina

With almost a decade of experience in dentistry, Karina loves being able to treat patient’s smiles while providing a fun and memorable experience for the children. She underwent the dental program at Eden Area ROP in Hayward to earn her certification in dental assisting as well as coronal polishing, X-ray, and pit and fissure sealants. She also interned at several offices including an orthodontist office, a small private practice, and the University of the Pacific clinic. She regularly pursues continuing education every year to remain up to date with the latest advances in dental care.

Aside from dentistry, Karina spends much of her time with her family and loved ones. She also enjoys binge-watching TV shows, attending baseball games, and traveling to new places. One cool fact about her: she’s fluent in both English and Spanish.

Christianna, Registered Dental Assistant

With a decade of experience in the dental field, Christianna earned her certification as a Registered Dental Assistant through Heald College, and she specialized in pediatric dental care. One of the best things about her work is being able to make patients feel at ease—regardless of their age—and giving them a positive and comfortable experience getting dental treatment.

Whenever Christianna isn’t at the office, she’s likely with her husband and their three beautiful children. Other than treating pearly whites, she also likes to challenge herself by learning all sorts of new things, including makeup, doing hair and nails, and cooking new recipes. She also enjoys reading, writing, and listening to audibles to improve herself. One fun fact about her: she has three dogs (Niner, Bella, and Doja) and a pet turtle named Gary Bubbles.
