The Faces Behind The Smiles

Meet Sofia

Registered Dental Hygienist

Tyler Pediatric Dentistry Team
Sofia was born in Henderson, TX, and has lived in East Texas her entire life. She received her Associate’s Degree from Tyler Junior College in 2019 and joined Tyler Pediatric Dentistry in 2021. The most rewarding thing she finds as a Dental Hygienist is helping children overcome their fears about visiting the dentist. “I love it when the kids leave our office with a smile and how excited they get whenever they get a sticker or a prize.” When not educating kids and parents about the importance of oral health, Sofia spends most of her time with her husband, Miguel, and their two daughters, Natalie and Isabelle, particularly visiting their school and attending sporting events.

Our dedicated Patient Coordinator, Rosalinda Solis, has been a warm and welcoming presence at Tyler Pediatric Dentistry since she joined. Born in San Antonio and raised in the small town of Atascosa, Rosalinda discovered her passion for dentistry at just 15 years old during her first dental visit.

At the office, Rosalinda greets patients with a smile, checks them in, answers calls, and ensures every appointment runs smoothly. She loves the peaceful atmosphere, the supportive team, and the wonderful families she interacts with every day.

She hopes to get involved in local community initiatives and always looks for ways to make a difference. Her philosophy? Treat every patient like family and create a warm, welcoming experience from the moment they walk through the door.
