Our pack works tirelessly to improve the quality of life for cats and dogs - one dental at a time.

Raysa displayed her passion for pets early, volunteering for an animal rescue center in the Dominican Republic, where she’s from, at age 14.

There, she rescued and rehomed over 30 pets. After, she graduated Magna Cum Laude from veterinary school there, with a clear interest in dentistry. While there, Raysa rescued one of her babies, Shary, a little Shih Tzu, who was very sick when she came into the hospital where she was doing her internship.

Shortly after graduation, Raysa fulfilled her dream to move to the US to bring her strong veterinary knowledge and love for animals here. In 2005, she started working at Miami Beach Animal Hospital as a veterinary technician, then as a surgical technician — doing anesthetic dentals every day. She worked there for 5.5 years, ultimately deciding she could come up with a better way to do dentals without the use of anesthesia.

In 2010, she founded HealthySmiles Pet Dental to allow pets the opportunity to get their teeth cleaned without the use of any sedatives or anesthesia and give pet parents the peace of mind knowing their pets will not be put under anesthesia.

HealthySmiles Pet Dental arose from the passion Raysa had to create a service that is quick, effective and painless.

Today, Healthy Smiles Pet Dental is at over 140 locations, servicing 2 states: Florida and Texas, and with thousands of healthy smiles under our belt.
