Meet Our Ammon Dental Team

New Friends for Your New Smile

A trip to Zirker Family Dentistry will feel like catching up with old friends thanks to our fantastic team. We’ll ensure our office offers a little slice of home each time you come to see us. Everyone you talk to will deliver the quick and helpful service you wish you could get everywhere!

Tiffaney, Office Manager

Tiffaney’s career started in 2019 when she was recruited to manage a dental practice in Glendive, MT, and she fell in love with the field. Since moving to Zirker Family Dentistry, she feels like she has a whole new family with our team, and she finds endless joy in serving our patients every day.

Tiffaney and her husband have four children and two beloved daughters-in-law. As a family, they try to be outdoors as much as possible, whether that involves fishing, hunting, or dirt biking. When she has time to herself, Tiffaney is an avid woodworker who is always tinkering with different projects.

Abigail, Treatment Coordinator

Abigail has been with us for her entire dental career, and she says the highlight of her day is talking to patients, getting to hear their stories, and becoming friends with them. She admits she was the weird kid that always loved going to the dentist growing up! She had the opportunity to shadow at Zirker Family Dentistry, and that evolved into learning how to assist, and she eventually moved up to the front desk where she found her home and never left.

Abigail spent her formative years in the beautiful outdoors that surround this area, mountain biking, snow skiing, and hiking, so she likes to get into the sun every chance she can. When she’s not at the office, you can find her perusing new titles at the Idaho Falls Public Library, riding at Harriman State Park, or catching the sunset from her front porch swing. Fun fact: She says she is the best gluten free + dairy free baker and can make the best chocolate cake that you will ever try, guaranteed!

Ali, Insurance Coordinator

Ali started her dental career with us, and she’s here to answer all of your questions about dental insurance while making sure you get the most out of your benefits. Originally from Rexburg, she has five children and two dogs who keep her on her toes. She strives to stay active outside of the office, so you’ll often find her running, walking her dogs, or weight training at the gym.

Trisha, Dental Hygienist

Trisha has been a part of the dental world for over 20 years. Nothing makes her happier than turning a nervous patient into a confident one and creating healthy smiles while building real connections.

Originally from Upstate New York, Trisha is married to her best friend with three pups and hopes for children in the near future. She enjoys crocheting in her free time and runs a small business called TT’s Loveys, where she makes homemade stuffed animals for children.

Taylor, Dental Hygienist

Taylor brings over a decade of dental experience to our practice, and she’s an expert at making every patient feel right at home in the treatment chair. She completed her dental training through Carrington College and is certified in laser treatment.

Coming to us from Rigby, she is married with three children and loves to spend time with her family outside and traveling. On the weekends, you’ll usually find her on the couch with a good book.

Ashli, Dental Hygienist

Ashli says few things are more satisfying than seeing the difference before and after a good cleaning. It’s so gratifying to watch a patient’s progress! Coming from Firth, ID and married with three children, she stays active through weightlifting and hiking and occasionally reads or sews.

Eliza, Dental Hygienist

What Eliza loves most about her job is the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives every day. She enjoys building relationships with her patients and helping them feel comfortable and cared for. She has a certificate in restorative dental work and takes pride in her attention to detail and level of patient communication.

For Eliza, family is everything. She and her husband have three children, and while life with them is busy and sometimes chaotic, it’s also full of love, growth, and so many special moments. To relax, she likes to play video games as well as sew and create her own clothes. Fun fact: Eliza is an identical twin, and she says she grew up with a built-in best friend for life!

Abby Jo, Dental Assistant

Abby Jo has over 20 years of dental experience, and in that time, she has made countless connections with so many patients. She’s always eager to help them gain knowledge about their oral health as well as confidence in their smiles! Over the years, she has completed advanced training focused on oral surgery, oral pathology, and CEREC one-visit crowns.

An Idaho Falls native, Abby Jo is the mother of two beautiful children and has three precious grandchildren. A Green Bay Packers fan, Star Wars nerd, sourdough baker, and outdoor enthusiast, she’s recently added archery to her long list of hobbies and interests. 

Michaela, Dental Assistant

Coming to us from San Jose, CA, Michaela has worked in dentistry for over 15 years. Having temped in over 50 different offices throughout her career, she now absolutely loves the team of professionals that she’s with at Zirker Family Dentistry. She says she has never felt such support in any practice before professionally or personally and comes to work every day happy to do her job.

When Michaela isn’t spending quality time with her husband, son, and dog, she’s busy studying, currently working on her MBA at Boise State University. She also likes going to local farmers' markets with her son as well as fishing with the whole family (though she admits she usually ends up just playing in the water with her son and dog).

Saddie, Dental Assistant

Saddie started with us in 2026, and she loves how every member of our staff is so good at working as a team, leading to smooth and productive visits for each patient. She also likes how there is no end to how much you can learn in the dental field!

The youngest of four siblings, both of Saddie’s sisters-in-law and mom are in the dental field, so teeth are a hot topic at family dinners. She’s eager to do anything that involves the outdoors or competition but likes to recharge with a good book.
