In her time away from the office, she enjoys traveling, cooking Sunday dinners for her family, hanging with her beloved dog Norman, thrift shopping, starting (but not necessarily finishing!) projects on her house, and loves going completely overboard decorating for the holidays.

Luzmarie Cuevas, RDH.

Hi, I’m Luzmarie, I am a Ventura native who now calls Bakersfield home with my fiance and fur baby, a German Shepherd named Oso. I have over 10 years of combined experience in the dental field, serving as a certified dental assistant prior to being accepted to the dental hygiene program at Taft college. I graduated in 2015 and I have been a practicing dental hygienist for the last 5 years. I have practice with a holistic dentist that has offered me different perspectives in oral hygiene. To be able to embrace the link between oral and total-body health. I believe that the mouth is the gateway to systemic health and that the two are more interconnected than previously recognized. I have truly come to enjoy the Bakersfield community all while only being a short drive away from my true home of Ventura. I value building good relationships with my patients and I look forward to serving the community that Dr.Kaur is here to serve and building many new great relationships in the community we serve. I look forward to serving you and providing the best care, I have to offer to keep the beautiful smiles of all. When I’m not treating patients, you could find me traveling or doing outdoor activities with my little family.
