Meet Dr. Avery Herrera

Dr. Avery Herrera received her undergraduate degree from the University of Nevada, Reno. She received her dental degree from New York University College of Dentistry and post-graduate/dental training at the University of Southern California.

Dr. Herrera has had the opportunity to live in many different parts of the country and has experienced many different perspectives, which helps in her career. With a career in pediatric dentistry, she feels she can establish a positive dental experience from an early age, which can help shape a child’s future perception of a dentist.

Dr. Herrera decided to pursue a career in dentistry because in third grade, her older sister needed dental work and the provider did not allow parents in the operative rooms but was okay with her going back to comfort her. From that moment, she fell in love with dentistry and decided she wanted to become a dentist.

Outside of work, Dr. Herrera enjoys playing golf, tennis, traveling and trying new restaurants.
