Dr. Rinehart enjoys all facets of the dental field, ranging from simple restorations and root canals to crown and bridge work, and even state-of-the-art all-on-4® dental implant restorations. Although she enjoys all areas of dentistry, her favorite is working with children! Her kind demeanor helps put anxious patients at ease.

Dr. Rinehart is committed to continuing education and takes many advanced courses each year to enhance her skills to better serve the dental care needs of her patients and provide them with a gentle and comfortable dental experience. Her most recent certification is in ClearCorrect, which is a clear aligner therapy used to straighten teeth.

In her spare time, Dr. Rinehart enjoys reading, visiting family, improving her horse-riding skills, and cooking. Her immediate family resides in Seguin, TX, but she's come to love South Texas -the friendly people and good food in particular! She hopes to continue practicing dentistry in the Valley for many years to come.
