Meet Diana

Dental Hygienist

Diana is a dental hygienist who takes records using x-rays, photos and iTero Scans, reviews oral hygiene instructions with patients and parents, and removes adhesives using a high speed handpiece. She really enjoys being a part of someone’s journey to a beautiful smile, and seeing patients’ happiness when seeing their final results. She appreciates the exceptional care all patients receive when they come to their appointments at Salaita Orthodontics. Diana went into the field of dentistry because she was scared of going to the dentist as a child, but as she got older she realized that she could really make a positive impact by giving patients positive experiences. She now enjoys helping children to feel safe and comfortable in the dental chair. Diana holds a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from The Ohio State University, as well as a Expanded Function Dental Auxiliary certification.

When not working, Diana enjoys spending time with her family (including her parents, brother, and sister), and her little nephew. Originally born in Uzbekistan, Diana was raised in Russia but immigrated to the United States in 2004. Someday she would love to travel to Europe.
