Meet Your Friendly Dental Team – Las Cruces, NM
A Team of Friendly Dental Experts
At Painted Skies Dental Center, making sure that you’re educated on your oral health is just as important as providing you care and services that you can rely on. In order to deliver this high standard of care, ensure your comfort, and answer all of your questions, we needed to employ an expert team that could answer the call!
Heather, Office Manager
Heather has been a part of our dental office for nearly a decade now, and she receives an incredible amount of fulfillment every day from working with such an exceptional team. Away from the dental office, she has a beautiful family of four that includes her husband Hector (a City of Las Cruces firefighter) and two children, Alycia and Damien, who are both amazing musicians! As a family, they really enjoy swimming, hiking, watching scary movies, reading, playing games, and being big travel enthusiasts.

One day, she hopes to have a piece of land that can be a loving home to all kinds of creatures, both big and small.

Kaitlin, Dental Assistant
As one of our assistants, Kaitlyn loves the rewarding feeling that comes from helping a patient get out of dental pain or finally achieve the confident smile of their dreams!
