Meet Dr. Diana

Dr. Diana

Dr. Diana was born and raised in Southern California. She felt comfortable at the dentist office early on thanks to her amazing childhood dentist. Being the eldest daughter and a natural nurturer, she always knew helping kids was her calling. Some of her early jobs included working as an After School Teacher and as an Early Interventionist with developmentally delayed kids from 0-3 years old. She received her Doctorate in Dental Medicine from Western University of Health Sciences, College of Dental Medicine, and has been treating kids in the dental field for over 7 years.

After struggling with chronic health issues and becoming her own advocate, she realized the importance of a root cause approach to health and wellness. After becoming a mom, her world expanded and she became dedicated to finding the safest and most natural options for her daughter to thrive. A challenging breastfeeding journey brought to light an integrated understanding of oral airway health. She furthered her training and completed intensive coursework in pediatric sleep, breathing, airway growth and development to become a Breathe Institute Ambassador. Her commitment is to provide the same care to her patients as she would her own daughter. It is her honor to play a part in shaping a child’s life in a positive way.

Previously living in Oregon and New Mexico, Dr. Diana is overjoyed to be back in SoCal with family and friends. Dr. Diana enjoys traveling and learning about different cultures and ways of life. You might find Dr. Diana at the local bookstore with her daughter Mari, at a pottery studio honing her new hobby or out forest bathing.
