Your Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist
Get To Know Dr. Dana Saucier
Dr. Dana Saucier, affectionately known as Dr. Dana, is a board-certified pediatric dentist whose journey in dentistry is as diverse as it is rich. Her academic path took her from the University of California, Santa Barbara, where she studied Biopsychology, to the University of Southern California for her D.D.S. and Pediatric Dental Residency. Since 2010, Dr. Dana has been practicing pediatric dentistry, bringing smiles to children's faces in California, Texas, Colorado, and now Tennessee.
With over 14 years of experience under her belt, Dr. Dana is not just an expert in pediatric dentistry; she's a master of creating comfortable experiences for her young patients. She's well-versed in a variety of sedation methods, hospital dentistry, and aesthetic restorative care. But it's not all about teeth for Dr. Dana. Living in Northshore, Chattanooga, she's a mother, an outdoor enthusiast, and a community member who loves biking, hiking, and discovering the area's natural beauty.
Dr. Dana's passion extends beyond dental procedures. She's committed to teaching children the importance of oral health and instilling habits that pave the way for a lifetime of dental well-being. Her practice is a place where families form lasting bonds, and personalized care is the norm. Her approach is about understanding each child, making every visit not just a dental appointment, but an opportunity for growth and learning.
