Still eager to learn, perform more duties and to become more hands on with patient care, she received her RDAEF II certificate from UCLA in 2009. Her favorite part of working with ProviDent Dental Group in Burbank is seeing her patients smile as they are walking out of the office. Alida takes great pride in what she does and her patients’ care and comfort is her number one priority. Patients love her for her outgoing, fun-loving personality; she has been known to serenade her patients, especially around the holidays. When not at the practice, Alida enjoys working out and spending time with her husband of over 20 years and her 16 year old son, cooking & having blockbuster nights on the weekend. “I am a major foodie, specially when it comes to sushi. I love to eat therefore I absolutely love to cook!”

Registered Dental Hygienist
Meg
Meg graduated from the University of Southern California in 2006 where she received her Bachelor’s of Science in Dental Hygiene. She immediately began working as a dental hygienist in Burbank with Dr. Ara Gulesserian and the ProviDent Dental Group team. Our patients rave about Meg and her gentleness. Many new patients that come to us have had less than positive experiences with their dental cleanings at other practices. One cleaning with Meg, and patients know they have found a “gem.” The positive feedback she receives from her patients is a daily inspiration that fuels her drive for excellence.
