Mighty Molar Kamloops Welcomes Natalie Ego — And She’s Kind of a Legend

If you’ve been in Kamloops for any length of time, there’s a good chance you’ve already met our newest dental hygienist, Natalie Ego — or at least, your teeth have.


With more than 30 years in the community and a career dedicated to helping people feel good about their smiles, Natalie brings an incredible mix of experience, heart, and humour to Mighty Molar.


Here’s a fun fact: she’s cleaned over one million teeth (yes, really). But what stands out even more than her skill is her ability to make even the most anxious patients feel relaxed and cared for. If you’ve ever put off a dental cleaning because of nerves, Natalie might just change your mind — she’s known for turning dental anxiety into genuine comfort (and often, a few laughs).


Why Mighty Molar?

For Natalie, joining the Mighty Molar team felt like coming home. As a mom of two and lifelong Kamloops local, she loves being part of a clinic that’s rethinking dental care — one where focused, preventative hygiene is the whole point. “Mighty Molar really fills a need here,” she says. “It’s a place where patients can come for the care they actually want — simple, thorough, and stress-free.”


Outside the Clinic

When she’s not helping Kamloops smile a little brighter, Natalie’s likely daydreaming about more hours in the day — for Latin dance lessons, yoga, and piano practice. Until then, she’s channeling that same passion and rhythm into her work, one happy patient at a time.

We’re thrilled to have Natalie on the team — and we think you will be too.


Come say hi, and let her show you how fun (and relaxing) your next cleaning can be.
