  • Sally Avery
    Dental Hygienist

    Hi my name is Sally Avery. I'm a Dental Hygienist and a Mother of 4 boys Kyle 33, Chris 31, Coda 23 and Colton 21.  I graduated from Temple University in 1984 and have worked in Hygiene ever since.  I grew up as a Navy brat and moved all over the East coast and spent 3.5 years in Italy. I volunteered some of my time during my studies at Temple in assisting Resident Dental students in Oral Surgery, Oral maxillofacial and Physical therapy Departments honing my skills and chairside manner. After graduation I moved with my family to Charleston S.C. where I worked in a Periodontist/Endodontist office until I moved on to working at the Charleston Naval Dental Clinic. While working with the Navy I took many courses in many aspects of Dentistry and helped in Desert Shield and Desert Storm getting Military Personal ready for deployment to Iraq by updating their Dental status. I moved to Arizona in 1992 and have raised my boys here ever since. I love the outdoors hiking, camping, fishing and hope to one day go White water rafting and continue exploring this great State.
