About Me
Karrie White
BS, RDH, RDHAP
Karrie White grew up on the Central Coast of California in the Santa Ynez Valley and moved to Northern California to complete her undergraduate studies. She had the opportunity to live abroad in Belize for ten years where she was an elementary school teacher. After moving back to the States, Karrie continued her education at Loma Linda University attending their Dental Hygiene program. While in school she was able to attend many community outreach programs including a mission trip to Nicaragua to treat underserved communities. It was her time living abroad and her love for dentistry that surfaced her passion for working as an RDHAP, helping those in need who lack the resources, time, or ability to make their way to a dental office.
​
Karrie has 10 years of experience as a dental hygienist and is excited to provide patients with the most cutting-edge, evidence-based research implemented through her care. Karrie provides patient education and implements tools needed to encourage them to value their own oral health conditions. Karrie is excited and honored to be working with those in need, knowing that she is able to help educate and encourage each patient with their specific dental needs.
