Shaina – Registered Dental Hygienist

“I strive to give my patients clean & healthy teeth & gums so that they don’t develop periodontal disease & can have a bright & pretty smile. A lot of diseases start from the oral cavity, so if we keep everything clean & healthy that will help your overall health. I always wanted to be a hygienist since high school. I love not only doing the cleanings, & helping patients stay healthy, but also conversing with them & hearing their stories. Sometimes patients just like having someone to talk to, & I love talking with patients.”

Sam – Registered Dental Assistant

“Efficiency, high-quality work & professionalism is what I try to bring to our patients. I always treat them with honesty & courtesy, like I would a member of my own family. I like to help people & alleviate their pain — that’s why I do what I do.”
