Our Dental Hygienists
Carol, Kaitlin, Heidi, Jenny, Kasey, Jennifer, Anita & Peggy
Our highly qualified dental hygienists are trained, licensed professionals who assist patients with preventative dentistry and dental care education. While dental hygienists are typically the teeth cleaning specialists, they also provide oral hygiene instruction, take and develop dental X-rays, apply cavity-preventive agents such as fluorides and sealants, and provide some types of periodontal (gum disease) therapy.
Clinical Assistants
Our clinical assistants provide support and other dental services under the instruction and supervision of a dentist. Dentists rely greatly on the skill of a dental assistant to perform safe and accurate work. Our clinical assistants perform a variety of duties, but most importantly, they work hard to make your dental visits as gentle and comfortable as possible. They help by preparing patients and their dental records before treatment and by making patients comfortable during treatment. As our dentists examine and treat patients, our clinical assistants pass the dentists the proper instruments and materials for each dental procedure. Assistants are also a great source for post-operative and general oral health care, and other clinical duties include charting patient treatments, polishing teeth, processing dental X-ray film, sterilizing and disinfecting instruments, preparing dental filling material, taking impressions and making casts of teeth.
