Ariel Hough spent her childhood moving around the world with her military family, but began calling Nebraska home in 2005. A graduate of Papillion-La Vista South High School, she studied at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, earning a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences. Ariel was inspired by her Air Force dentist father; she attended the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry and began her Air Force service after graduating.

While active duty, Dr. Hough completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency where she was trained in advanced techniques of all dental disciplines. She is committed to staying current with the latest dental developments and her research on dental crowns has been published in The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry. Dr. Ariel served at Joint Base Langley-Eustis and Ellsworth Air Force Base before recently returning to Nebraska to be near family. 

Dr. Hough values spending time with her husband, Jace, and their two beautiful daughters, Zita and Gianna. She also enjoys skiing, spearfishing, hiking, and cooking.

Dr. Ariel Hough is excited to join the Serenity team and help patients of all ages with their unique comprehensive treatment needs. Her top priority is making sure her patients are smiling as they leave their dental appointment.
