Meet Our Team
Dentists
Dr. John Bocchi, DDS
Dr. Bocchi is passionate about dentistry and the effect it can have on your whole-body health. This is where complete health dentistry comes to life! He believes in optimizing growth and development for kids and adults to improve breathing, prevent chronic health issues, and make the smiles of his patients’ dreams. Because he believes that you always need to continue learning in order to provide the best care for patients, he has traveled the country to learn the latest dental technologies, including the CEREC machine that completes porcelain crowns and veneers in a single visit.
He and his wife, Jen, have two children–Keira and Kipton. He enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, photography, fishing, hiking, biking, snowboarding, and the many other outdoor activities available in Northern Nevada.

Registered Dental Hygienists
Lancette
Lancette graduated from the University of South Dakota in 1995 and would love to help you reach your goals for a healthy smile that lasts a lifetime! In addition to her work at Sierra Smiles, Lancette is also a dental hygiene professional coach, a continuing education speaker for dentists and dental hygienists (including developing a continuing education company), the past president of the Nevada Dental Hygienists Association, and was a member of the board of directors for the American Dental Hygienists Association.
Lancette believes strongly in the power of prevention, the importance of complete health dentistry and that all communities should have access to affordable dental care–that’s why she also owns a mobile dentistry practice and has given over 10,000 COVID vaccines.
It’s no wonder she’s been awarded the Nevada Dental Hygienist of the Year and the national Denobi award!
When she is not talking about teeth, she loves to spend time outdoors with her husband, two children, parents, and her siblings.
