Tamara Thomas

REGISTERED DENTAL HYGIENIST

Born and raised in North San Diego County, I started my dental career in 2003 as a Registered Dental Assistant. I continued my education and became a Registered Dental Hygienist in 2009. My passion for a holistic, integrative approach has lead me to become an Orofacial Myologist and educating patients on how orofacial structures relate to airway health. I am passionate about the oral and systemic connection, keeping up to date with the latest research and comprehensive approach to overall wellness. Outside of the dental setting, I run my own myofunctional therapy office called Facial Physique and enjoy spending time with my boyfriend.

Mea Norton

REGISTERED DENTAL hygienist

Born and raised under the sunny skies of San Diego, I thrive in
the great outdoors and cherish my adventures in travel. At home,
I'm the proud parent of two tuxedo cats, Pearl and Sonic, and
revel in my role as an adoring aunt to my niece and nephew.

My journey in dentistry spans 12 years, starting humbly as a
sterilization tech and blossoming into a passion for dental hygiene
and patient care during my tenure as a dental assistant in a
periodontal office. Witnessing the profound impact of oral health
on overall well-being fueled my dedication. In 2019, I earned my
degree in dental hygiene.

Recently confronted with a diagnosis of SLE, systemic lupus
erythematosus and other autoimmune conditions, I bring a unique
empathy and understanding to supporting patients facing similar
health challenges.
