Pasadena's Love Brushing Dentistry—we put our hearts into your smile.

Alicia Alegria

Dental Assistant

My name is Alicia. I have been part of the Love Brushing team since 2016. I love meeting new patients and helping them achieve their dental goals. The smile once treatment is done is, for me, priceless. I find the art of dentistry very exciting and always look forward to keeping up with the new technology and techniques. When I’m away from the office, my two girls keep me busy with school activities and sports. I enjoy cheering for my hometown teams, the Houston Astros, Houston Texas, and Houston Rockets. I also love creating arts and crafts.

Yanely Herrera

Dental Assistant

You’ll find Yanely assisting Dr. Khavari and Dr. Walker at Love Brushing Dentistry with patient care and treatment. She helps with dental cleaning, taking X-rays, preparing examination rooms, and making sure patients have a comfortable experience during their visit. Yanely followed this path because she enjoys helping patients and seeing the positive impact that quality dental care can have on their confidence.

She loves seeing patients leave the office with a smile and appreciates being part of a team that communicates well, supports one another, and works together to provide the best care possible.

Outside of the office, Yanely enjoys studying, spending time with friends and family, finding new hobbies that make her happy, shopping, and she especially loves turtles.
