Show Notes


After earning her BS in Dental Hygiene from USC, Dr. Holden found her calling in a pediatric dental office in Beverly Hills. After five years, she returned to USC to earn her DDS and a certificate in Pediatric Dentistry. She was fortunate to return to the same practice for a year as an associate before opening her own Pediatric Dental office in Manhattan Beach, California. As the only female pediatric dentist in Manhattan Beach, Dr. Holden created a thriving practice. She also has a second office that serves teens and college students, catering to her older patients.

The idea for Tanner’s Tasty Paste came after struggling to find a toothpaste that her sons would actually use. The concept was born when her son first tried the toothpaste and excitedly asked, “Mom, can I brush my teeth again?” Tanner’s Tasty Paste is available in Vanilla, Chocolate, and Orange Vanilla.

Dr. Holden is married and has two sons. Her older son, Chase, just graduated from USC Film School and is seeking an entry-level position. Her youngest son, who has special needs, is the happiest guy and still uses Tanner’s Tasty Paste! It has touched so many special needs and sensory children! She still practices full time as a pediatric dentist in Manhattan Beach.

It is time to take a ride on the flavor wave!
