Office Manager

Dana Pinero is the office manager for Bright Healthy Smiles and will ensure that your child’s visit — and yours — is as smooth and welcoming as possible, from making the appointment, to helping patients with their insurance providers, to setting up future visits to the office.

Dana personally arranges all appointments for Dr. Corielli and Dr. Moursi and works hard to accommodate even the busiest of children’s and parents’ schedules. Dana also facilitates immediate and direct communication between our office and a patient’s other medical and dental offices (pediatrician, etc.).

Dana has worked for the past five years with Dr. Corielli as a dental assistant before becoming her office manager, so she has a very good knowledge of pediatric dentistry and orthodontics, and will be able to answer your dental questions. Dana loves children and really enjoys working with them.
