Ariza

Office Manager

Hello and welcome to Chiara Dental! My name is Ariza and I’m the office manager. I oversee the office, ensuring we’re providing you with the best care. In addition to managing our hygiene and operative schedules, I will work with you to explain procedures and answer questions about treatment. I will also review insurance benefits, so you understand your financial responsibilities.

I started working as a dental back office assistant in 2008 and completed my dental assistant training here in Tucson. My first position with Chiara Dental was as Dr. Chiara’s assistant, in 2013. Then, in 2015, I started training for office management. We have an amazing practice: Dr. Chiara is a very conservative, gentle dentist and our team is skilled, helpful, and caring. We work hard to provide you with the best dental modern dental care, so you enjoy a lifetime of smiles!

When I’m not in the office chances are I’m with my family. I have three wonderful kids. We enjoy camping, hiking, and spending time outside in the sun. My newest interest is gardening.

Addie

Lead Dental Assistant

Hello! As one of our dental assistants, I help the doctors and staff stay on schedule, train fellow assistants in latest technology, manage Invisalign® cases, and assist in procedures. I enjoy the technical aspects of dentistry, as well as the relationships I create with our patients.

I completed my dental assisting certificate at Carrington College in 2015 and was hired at Chiara Dental right out of school. I was fortunate to find such a great work family and am happy to work alongside the doctors and staff. We all get along so great and spend so much of our day laughing.

I have two children, Leighton and Xzavier. I spend all of my free time with my kids and family. We love going for walks and playing at different parks. I also enjoy going on road trips to new places and trying new foods.
