At four years old, Dr. Trautmann realized just how amazing her pediatric dentist, Dr. Rolando Guzman, was. He was fabulous and kind, and as a kid, Dr. Trautmann looked up to him. Due to the special relationship they were able to build, Dr. Trautmann’s pediatric dentist encouraged her to become a dentist herself.
Dr. Trautmann attended the University of Costa Rica for her undergraduate studies and then went on to complete her dental degree at Ohio State University. She practiced as a general dentist after completing her education from 1991 to 1994 before going back to Ohio State University to earn her Advanced Prosthodontics certification and become a prosthodontist in 1997. She also earned her Level 1 oral sedation and nitrous oxide sedation certification.
Dr. Trautmann spent several years on-staff as the Assistant Director to the AEGD Program at TAMU College of Dentistry before going on to practice as an associate at North Texas Dental Specialists and Allen Family Dental. She then opened up Prosper Dental Health with her dear friend and fellow professional, Dr. Bill Gerlach, who has since retired.
