Meet the Team Monday 🦷✨

This week, we’re shining the spotlight on Yorleny (Leny) , our incredible hygienist!

Leny chose dental hygiene because she saw firsthand the lack of dental care her family had growing up—and now she’s passionate about making sure her patients receive the care and attention everyone deserves.

She loves building genuine relationships with her patients and takes pride in helping each person feel comfortable in the chair by walking them through every step of their visit.

Her go-to tip? Don’t skip your regular appointments preventive care is everything when it comes to a healthy smile!

If Leny wasn’t a hygienist, she’d be a stay-at-home mom, which makes perfect sense she has such a nurturing, caring nature. Outside the office, she enjoys unwinding with a good podcast and spending quality time with her twin girls.

Be sure to say hi to Leny at your next visit! 💙

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to our front desk dream team: Carrie, Essence and Jessica! 🎉

Professional phone jugglers, schedule magicians, insurance whisperers, and part-time therapists (for both patients and the team 😄) Y

If you’ve ever called our office and thought, “Wow, they have their lives together,” just know… it’s these gals working their magic behind the scenes. ✨

Thank you for keeping us organized, keeping things running, and keeping us laughing every single day. We’d be completely lost without you (and probably double-booked… a lot).
P.S Its Carries Birthday!

Give them some love today they’ve earned it! 💙

Oral health is essential because it affects both your mouth and your overall well-being.
🦷 Prevents dental problems: Good oral care helps avoid cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss.
❤️ Supports overall health: Poor oral health is linked to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and infections.
😁 Boosts confidence: Healthy teeth and gums improve your smile, speech, and self-esteem.
🛑 Allows early detection: Regular care helps catch serious issues (like oral cancer) early.
✅ In short: Taking care of your mouth helps you stay healthier, feel better, and avoid bigger problems later.

Meet the Team Monday: Jessica, BSDH
Say hello to Jessica, one of our amazing hygienists!
🎓 Jessica recently graduated with her Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene and she loves putting that knowledge to work helping patients better understand their oral health. Her favorite part of being a hygienist is educating and empowering you so you can feel confident caring for your smile at home not just when you're in the chair!
💙 Nervous about dental visits?
Jessica is especially great with anxious patients. She talks you through everything she’s doing and explains why no surprises, just comfort and trust.
🪥 Her #1 tip for patients:
Switch to an electric toothbrush! It’s one of the easiest ways to instantly improve your brushing routine.
👶 If she wasn’t in dentistry, Jessica would be a lactation consultant and myofunctional therapist she has a big heart for moms and babies and loves helping families thrive.
☕ After a long day you’ll find her curled up on the couch with a good book and a warm chai tea.
🎤 Fun fact: She can sing… but keeps it a secret 😉
Next time you’re in, be sure to say hi to Jessica!
