Dentist - Vallejo, CA

I have served as the Office Manager at Cervantes and Prado Dental Care since 2012. I was introduced to the dental field in 2009 with very little dental experience but with lots of enthusiasm toward learning everything I needed for this new environment. I discovered the joy of helping patients understand the importance of good dental care and learned that the number one priority of both Doctor Cervantes and Doctor Prado is 100% patient care. It is very rewarding for me to see our patients leave our office with a smile and looking forward to their next dental appointment. I strive to make every patient’s visit as comfortable as possible as well as help them understand their dental treatment and financial options. I am honored to be part of the Cervantes and Prado Dental Care team and enjoy working with two extraordinary dentists.

Since working with Cervantes and Prado Dental Care, I learned that maintaining excellent dental care requires more than just brushing, flossing and going to the dentist once or twice a year. It requires having a dentist you can trust and one that is committed to working with you to help maintain a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime.

When not in the office I love spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy music, dancing and learning new things.

My name is Claudia. A graduate from CSU East Bay earning a Bachelor in Health Science in 2015. Followed by earning an Associate Degree in Dental Hygiene from Fresno City College in 2018.

My passion for dental hygiene began after completing my own orthodontic treatment, which sparked a desire to help others feel confident in their smiles. Dedicated to ensuring very patient leaves with a healthier mouth and a boost in confidence, along with oral hygiene education.

Outside the clinic, I enjoy world travel, getting lost in a good book, and spending time in my garden.

Hi! My name is Marcella Lane. I have been working as a Registered Dental Hygienist since June 2000. I truly love my profession. I enjoy working with our patients to motivate and encourage them to improve their oral health. It is extremely gratifying to see patients progress in learning how to take care of their teeth and gums. I have been a member of Drs. Cervantes and Prado’s staff since July 2015. Both dentists are very warm, kind and caring and possess the ability to help apprehensive patients feel at ease.

Besides working in our practice to promote oral health, I also volunteer in the community to promote oral health. I have worked in sealant clinics in elementary schools in Richmond and Vallejo. Sealants aid in the prevention of cavities in young children. I have also volunteered in large events that serviced the dental needs of underprivileged residents in Oakland and Vallejo. These opportunities of service have truly been rewarding to me.

In my spare time I enjoy hiking with my husband, reading novels, playing the violin and photographing nature.

We are always accepting new patients, and I am looking forward to sharing my enthusiasm of oral hygiene with you. I hope to meet you soon.

I am a first generation graduate of Solano Community College (Associates Degree General Science) and University Of the Pacific Dugoni School of Dentistry (Bachelors Degree Dental Hygiene). What made me decide to pursue Dentistry? I always loved getting my teeth cleaned as a child, and as I grew up I realized how fortunate I was to receive dental care.

I find purpose in working with others, helping those with special needs, and creating connections with my patients. The best way to explain myself is natural born extrovert, a lover of a good sense of humor, organized, and flexible. I love spending time outside with my family and friends on my free time.

I’m a dedicated dental hygienist with 20 years of experience in the dental field, committed to helping others achieve and maintain their best smiles. When I'm not working, I’m a proud mom of three, always balancing family time with my love for travel and exploring new places. I’m passionate about building strong relationships with my patients and friends, ensuring they feel heard and cared for. Born and raised in Vallejo, CA, I strive to bring positivity, professionalism, and a little bit of wanderlust to everything I do!

I’m a Bay Area native, and my journey in dentistry started as a Registered Dental Assistant. Over the years, I expanded my skills and became an RDAEF2, giving me 13 years of experience in the field. My curiosity about dentistry has always kept me learning and growing, and it’s what makes me love what I do. My goal is to go to hygiene school and become a dental hygienist. I'm excited to keep growing in the dental field and the chance to make an even bigger impact on our patients’ smiles.
