Southern Smiles Pediatric Dentistry

Southern Smiles Pediatric Dentistry Dr. Nar Panoosian and staff providing your child with a positive dental experience.

Welcome to the Cary pediatric dental practice of Dr. Dan Howell and Dr. Nar Panoosian. Our outstanding staff have dedicated themselves to providing you and your child a positive dental experience and the highest quality dental care. We believe that the time and effort that we spend with every parent and child in our pediatric dental practice will prepare your child for a lifetime of excellent dental health. Early parental involvement in home dental care is critical for your child's dental health. We will demonstrate home care techniques and explain how you can easily incorporate these techniques into your daily family routines. We have found that parents who get involved early with their child's home dental care can expect fewer dental problems for their child.

✨ Meet the Faces of Southern Smiles ✨

Michelle, Practice Manager
With a background in Human Resource Management and Business Management, Michelle brings a strong foundation in leadership, organization, and team development.

During her years as a stay-at-home mom, she remained deeply involved in her community, serving on multiple PTA school boards in roles including Treasurer, Vice President, and President. These positions allowed her to apply her management skills toward supporting school initiatives and fostering collaboration among families and staff.

Michelle’s passion for mentorship and service extends to her long-time involvement with Girl Scouts, where she has led her daughters’ troop, managed the Cookie Sale Program, overseen the area cookie program, and contributed to statewide training for new troops and coordinators.

Her dedication to volunteerism — totaling more than 5,000 hours of service — earned her the distinguished Presidential Volunteer Service Award.

Through her extensive community leadership and volunteer experience, Michelle has built a reputation for commitment, compassion, and the ability to inspire others to lead and serve. 💚
