Meet the Team

Kalana

Kalana, RDH

Registered Dental Hygienist

I grew up in Huntsville, AL (if you know how great it is, let me know you love it too!) and currently live here in Midtown. I love my little bubble, I take frequent walks to Piedmont Park, I love to brunch and have a great time. I’m always looking for something new to experience, and I take pictures of everything, memories are so important to me. If money wasn’t an option, I would absolutely be a food critic or be an archeologist and have my own show on Discovery.

I am proud to say I have a true passion for my work, and I know most people can’t say they love their job, but I do. I was grateful to have a wonderful dental experience growing up and It is my goal to provide that same experience here at Intown Smile Studio. I am thankful to be apart of a wellness practice who cares for oral health and the true scientific connection for your total wellness.

Charro, RDH

Registered Dental Hygienist

Starting my career as a Dental Assistant has allowed me to become an educator in all aspects of dentistry. Dental Hygiene was the obvious next step. I’m truly grateful to be a part of a total wellness dental practice, like Intown Smile Studio, and I look forward to being your partner in your health. In my spare time, I’m what you would call a gym rat and I’ve competed in national competitions. As a Grant Park resident, the Beltline has become mine and my dog Redd’s daily outing.

Janice

Janice, RDH, FAAOSH, HIAOMT

Registered Dental Hygienist

Pursuit of the highest level of patient care experience is my passion with connecting the medical history to the oral health and wellness for a total health approach. I meet my patients where they are to address concerns, collaborating closely with our Dentists and then engaging customized therapies for each patient. As a lifelong learner, I more than exceed continuing education requirements with over 200 credits hours in the last few years. My ongoing plans and goals to learn the most current and scientific information is not only my passion but I see it as a responsibility to continue highest level care. Continuing studies of scientific data for biological hygiene services with a functional, integrative approach to dental care reinforces the care I want to provide. I am so honored to be a part of Intown Smile Studio, working with Dr. Susan Estep and Dr. Greene who excel and are well respected in the dental community at large.

I am a Mom to five great adult children and G-Mom to five little grandchildren. I love to play golf, and trying to make time for pickleball! The art of wine is very enjoyable — I call it playful pretension! When I’m not studying or preparing for a course, you may find me at a beach, or lake, winery, or relaxing by a fire pit with friends and family. Patio and rooftop dining with live music is also a big favorite!

Indira

Indira, LE, CDA

Licensed Esthetician, Certified Dental Assistant

I have been an assistant for 3 years now and very fortunate to work with incredible professionals who have shared their knowledge and given me the opportunity to further my experience in the dental industry. Since working with Dr. Estep, I’ve been introduced to a whole new world of cosmetic dentistry I never knew I would find so fulfilling! The amount of work and dedication each case takes makes my job very rewarding. From the very beginning, creating a bond with our patients, throughout the process watching the changes, to the final results which sometimes include tears of joy, makes me love what I do!

In my spare time time I enjoy working out, shopping and spending time with my friends and family!

Tyla

Tyla

Patient & Insurance Coordinator

I am originally from Davenport, Iowa. I moved to Atlanta after I completed my dental assisting program in 2012. While I started off my dental career as a pediatric dental assistant, I began to enjoy the business side of dentistry and have worked on the business side for the most part.

I love Atlanta and my little Yorkie named Sosa! In my spare time, you’ll likely find me working out.

Maria

Maria

Practice Manager

I’ve worked in the legal industry for a long part of my working career and have had the pleasure of working with some well known companies here in Atlanta. In 2005, I met Dr. Estep and decided to change careers and industries. I decided to put my business degree, my legal background and corporate training to a different use. When I first joined Dr. Estep, my eyes opened to a deeper approach on health. In 2011, Dr. Estep introduced me to the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health. As someone who came from outside the dental industry, I was surprised and blown away at the impact dentistry has on our health. I have attended a number of AAOSH scientific sessions over the years and met the fellowship criteria, am now a charter AAOSH Fellow. I’ve continued to broaden my scope, and have attended the Institute for Integrative Nutrition for a deeper understanding of the impact of diet, food and nutrition on health. While I’ve always been an enthusiast for exercise and diet, knowing and working with Dr. Estep has given me a much deeper appreciation for my own health and how a dental practice is the missing link for a patient’s health. When I’m not working, I really enjoy the outdoors – hiking, riding my bicycle and playing tennis.
