Meet The Team

We like to put names to faces, so we thought you might like the same! Our goal from the moment you enter the door as a new patient is to make sure that you stay comfortable, feel taken care of, and leave with the intent of seeing us again! 

With that in mind, here is a little bit about each of us! 

Dr. Trevor Tafoya

Dr. Tafoya relocated to Boise from New Mexico in 2000. He immediately fell in love with all that Idaho has to offer and later attended Boise State University. There he met his beautiful wife and received his degree in Biology. He then attended the University of Louisville School of Dentistry on a Navy Scholarship and graduated in 2013. After dental school, Dr. Tafoya provided comprehensive dental care to our servicemen and women in South Carolina, Japan, and finally in San Diego. In 2016, he was selected to deploy for 5 months with the USNS Mercy, a Navy hospital ship. As part of this opportunity, he traveled throughout South East Asia teaching and providing dental care to isolated communities throughout the region.

After working with our team for a year, Dr. Tafoya purchased the practice in May 2019. Patient comfort and quality care are always his main priorities. Dr. Tafoya is thrilled to be back in the Boise area with his wife and four awesome children. They love exploring the outdoors, mountain biking, skiing, camping, and Boise State football. He also loves scuba diving, a hobby he picked up while living in Japan for three years. They are excited to finally return to their Idaho home where they can be closer to family, be involved in the community, and enjoy Idaho again!


Penny

Dental Hygienist

Penny joined our team working as our full-time hygienist in September 2012. Penny graduated from Idaho State University in 2006. Working previously at a Periodontal office, her gentle hand is greatly appreciated! Everyone loves Penny, toddlers and seniors alike.

Having 5 kids and 3 grand-kids, Penny is always on the go! From baseball and basketball to volleyball, and having family out of town, Penny enjoys traveling for games and visiting family back home in Preston, Idaho. When Penny and her family aren't on the road, they love to ride four-wheelers and camp for fun!

We love absolutely Victory Dental! All the staff is always so kind and friendly. We take our kids there as well and they are so patient with them. I had to get a crown recently and Dr. Tafoya was able to make it in house and I didn’t have to come back for another appointment. He takes his time and does such a great job! This is the first time in my life that I don’t feel nervous about going to the dentist!!

Our entire family loves this office. We were trying to teach the importance of good dental hygiene to our 6 year old. We told her to brush thoroughly each time or she might have to go the dentist to have another cavity filled. Her response, "that's okay, I like the dentist!" Although great, it is not what we were expecting.
Keep up the good work Victory Dental!
