Alexandra Verdin
Registered Dental Assistant
Hello, my name is Alexandra Verdin I am a dental assistant at Mercy Dental. When I was younger, I really have good memories going to the dentist, something about the dental field caught my attention. I have decided to become a dental assistant and to be able to help people feel comfortable and happy with their smile. Mercy Dental is a great place with staff that treats you like family, they are willing to help you as much as possible. In my free time I enjoy reading, exercising, watching movies and cooking for my family and mostly spending quality time with my son.
Briana Lopez

Hi, my name is Briana Lopez. I love being a registered dental assistant because every day, I get the opportunity to meet new and extraordinary people. I like to make patients feel like they can put their trust in me as a dental assistant and as a friend to confide in. Working at Mercy Dental gives me and the rest of our team the chance to make each and every patient day better by giving them exceptional service. I am so thankful to be working with such a loving and devoted team. When I’m not working, I like to be around my family, listen to music, draw, and binge watch some of my favorite shows on Netflix.
Mabel Gutierrez
Registered Dental Hygienist
My name is Mabel Gutierrez and I am a dental hygienist. I stumbled upon the most rewarding career completely by accident. In order to complete a course I took in high school before graduating, my teacher got me a job at the dental office in town. My plan was to work there only until graduation, but I quickly discovered my passion for promoting optimal oral health and prevention of oral disease. Although I was very happy as an assistant for 7 years, I wanted to be more hands-on with my patients to utilize the skills I gained. It has been a pleasure to serve my patients as their dental hygienist for over a year now. On my days off I spend time with family, friends, and my puppy Millie. Any chance I get, I leave town to travel with my best friends where I indulge in a good book for a couple of days.
