Misti D. Aguirre

Dental Assistant

Working at Kidzone with Dr. Yar Khan and Dr. McGown is such an amazing experience for me. I am a dental assistant, and I am able to work with all ages of patients. To me, this is a really gratifying experience, and I enjoy every moment. Working with children is my favorite part of my job. I love to see children walk out of Kidzone after a treatment has been done—to know I was a part of their treatment is really special and endearing to me.

Through the years of being a dental assistant, I have grown really fond of a lot of my patients, especially the children. Children are the reason why I entered the dental field in the first place. Although at times it can be a little hectic treating children, I find it a really gratifying part of my job. Just knowing at the end of the day I did my job is an amazing accomplishment for me.
