Get to know Dentist Dr. Rosalynd Alatorre, who serves patients in Las Vegas, Nevada.

As a highly skilled dentist, Dr. Alatorre holds the distinction of being the Founder of Alatorre Dental, a family-oriented practice situated in the vibrant city of Las Vegas, Nevada. 

Driven by a deep sense of honor, she is dedicated to brightening the smiles of local residents. Dr. Alatorre has honed her expertise in various facets of dentistry, including aesthetic and cosmetic procedures, occlusion, function, and the management of TMJ dysfunction. She excels in providing services such as all-porcelain crowns, veneers, and Invisalign. 

In her pursuit of excellence, her practice remains at the forefront of innovation, continuously embracing new techniques and investing in cutting-edge industry equipment to ensure the highest quality of care.

Born and raised in Las Vegas, Dr. Alatorre graduated from Bishop Gorman High School. After high school, she attended the College of Notre Dame and graduated with honors with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology.

Upon graduation from college, Dr. Alatorre was employed at the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco, California, where she worked in the Academic Affairs Department. She had the opportunity to work closely with the Dean of the Dental School, and from that collaboration, developed a genuine love for dentistry. 

Thereafter, Dr. Alatorre pursued her passion for dentistry while attending Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, Massachusetts, and received her Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry Degree.

In 2004, she continued her pursuit of knowledge by attending an Advanced Residency in General Practice Dentistry at Lutheran Medical Center in Tucson, Arizona. After completing this program, Dr. Alatorre fulfilled her dream of moving back to Las Vegas where she could give back to the community in which she was raised.

Committed to continually expanding her knowledge to bring state-of-the-art dentistry to her patients, she is an active member of the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

Outside of the office, Dr. Alatorre enjoys spending time with her husband and three wonderful sons. “Time with my family is most treasured. There is nothing more heart-warming than the sound of my three boys laughing and having a good time!”
