Dr. Jill Biles
My name is Jill Biles and I grew up in Northwest Iowa.  I relocated to Colorado after completing my dental education at the University of Minnesota.  Prior to entering dental school I earned my undergraduate degree in Nutrition Science, also at the University of Minnesota (GO TWINS!)  I enjoy educating my patients on the importance of their oral health.  I am inspired every day by my patients and I love what I do.
I joined the Avanti Dental team in July 2006.  I keep current with the latest in dentistry through regular continuing education courses.  I am a member of the American Dental Association, Colorado Dental Association, Seattle Study Club and the Academy of General Dentistry.
In my spare time I enjoy running, hiking, gardening and spending time with my husband Brad, our son Billy and our two dogs Dezzy and Ella.
Our Hygienists
Lori Haug
My name is Lori and I’ve been a member of the Avanti family since 2002.  I earned a Bachelor of Science degree from …the University of Colorado’s dental hygiene program that same year. I am a member of the American Dental Hygiene Association.  As a hygienist I enjoy alleviating patient fears through education and a gentle touch.  My favorite part of my job is getting to know my patients on a personal level, watching their families grow and change over the years.  Prior to my career in dentistry, I was a flight attendant for 14 years. 
In my spare time I enjoy seeing the world through the eyes of my beautiful 5 year old daughter Maya who was adopted from China in 2006.  We enjoy spending time at local playgrounds, swimming, fishing, hiking, bike riding, attending theater productions, and doing any type of craft that involves glue, scissors and mess.  My personal interests include cooking, gardening, traveling, and a new love of Rockies baseball.

Marlen Gutierrez
Hi, my name is Marlen and I have worked for Avanti Dental Care since 2006.  I was born in Guanajuanto, Mexico and moved to the United States at the age of twelve.  The first year in the United States was difficult not knowing the language especially since I’m an only child.  My parents have been my role models and have taught me that my dreams can come true with hard work.   I’m fortunate to have wonderful friends who are the brothers and sisters that I don’t have, and who are there for me in good times
