Meet The Team

Dr. Priya Kamdar

I graduated from dental school in 2011 and completed a two-year general practice residency at the University of Minnesota/Fairview, where I gained experience in treating medically complex patients. Over the past 12 years, I have worked as an associate professor at the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, practiced in Faculty Practice, and provided care at Boynton Dental. Outside of dentistry, I enjoy gardening, traveling and photography.

Dr. Chris Lebo

I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. In 2001 I moved to Minnesota to attend dental school. My wife, Jodi, joined me from Seattle in 2005. I graduated from Dental School the same year. In 2006, I completed a General Practice Residency at the VA Medical Center, followed by a mini residency in esthetic dentistry in 2008. From 2006-2024 I worked at The University of Minnesota treating students and staff. My wife and I lived in Saint Paul for several years before moving to Eagan, where we’ve been since 2013. We have a sixteen-year-old daughter, Kate, and a twelve-year-old son, Jake. We live with our cats, Penny and Wally, and our German Shepherd, Luna. During the warmer months you can find me bike-riding or swimming with my kids.

Dr. Annika Simon

I graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 2005 and completed a general practice residency at the VA Hospital Dental Clinic. I am dedicated to providing high-quality, patient-centered dental care. I take pride in helping individuals achieve healthy, confident smiles and believe in the importance of open communication, patient education, and a comfortable dental experience. Outside of dentistry, I enjoy reading, playing the piano, yoga, and exploring state and national parks with my family. I live in Vadnais Heights with my husband, two teenagers, two Coton de Tulear pups, and a painter turtle. I am thrilled to join this wonderful dental community and look forward to getting to know you and your families.

Autumn – Dental Hygienist

Autumn brings a wealth of experience and heart to our team. She proudly served in the U.S. Army Reserves for 8 years. While serving she completed her degree for dental assisting and began her dental career as a dental assistant at the VA. She returned to school a few years later for dental hygiene and has over 15 years of experience as a dental hygienist. Autumn is known for her gentle touch and dedication to patient care. She spent more than a decade at Boynton Dental alongside Dr. Kamdar, Dr. Lebo, and Dr. Simon, building lasting relationships with patients and colleagues alike.

Outside the clinic, Autumn has been married to her husband Aaron for 20 years. Together, they have two wonderful kids—Hayden and Hannah—and their “favorite child,” a springerdoodle named Jasmine. In her free time, she loves reading, running, camping, and hiking anywhere the trails take her.

Heather – Dental Assistant

Hello! I have been a licensed dental assistant for over 25 years. I have worked in specialty clinics, such as endodontics (root canals), oral surgery, and orthodontics. I’ve been back in general dentistry for the past five years and absolutely love it! I like the variety of the job and working with all ages. The best part of my job is getting to know our patients and helping them have a positive dental experience.

I am married to my husband, Mark, and have a daughter named Tori. We love to travel and spend time with family and friends. In my free time I also love walking my dog, Piper; spending time outdoors; and doing adult size paint by numbers.

Ashley – Front Desk

I’m often the first person you’ll see when you walk through the door. I love creating a welcoming environment for our patients. I bring hands-on experience as an unlicensed dental assistant for 3 ½ years. I am currently pursuing my education to become a licensed dental assistant with Herzing University.

Outside of the office I enjoy being with family and have an 11 year old daughter named Brooklynn. She is very active, and I enjoy coaching her sports. We have 2 young and feisty cats, Koco and Mufasa.

I am excited to provide excellent support to our patients and team every step of the way!
