Experience
"Barbara was an incredible asset to our team in the 9 years we had the opportunity to work alongside her. She took the time to educate patients, improve her clinical skills, build rapport, and bolster our hygiene program to ensure that everyone understood the importance of maintaining optimal dental health.
Barbara is also a great team player–jumping in wherever needed. Regardless of capacity. If sterilization is backed up, a doctor is running behind and a patient needs updated radiographs, or rooms need to be turned over; Barbara is there. We would rehire Barbara without hesitation. She will be invaluable to any team she joins. Thank you for working alongside us and helping us grow as clinicians and private practice owners!"

"I had the pleasure of working with Barbara for a couple years. She is a great hygienist, patients love her, and she prefers staying busy. Her willingness to take on as many patients as she did while being thorough was just what we needed in our very busy and growing practice! She was ALWAYS willing to cover shifts if we were in a pinch!"

Benefits
These tasks combine clinical skills and patient interaction, contributing significantly to both preventive care and the overall dental treatment process.
Teeth Cleanings
Professional teeth cleaning (scaling and polishing) to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth. This helps prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and other future oral health issues for the patients.
Oral Health Screenings
Assess patients' oral health by examining gums, teeth, and other areas of the mouth. I look for signs of gum disease, cavities, infections, oral cancer, and other dental issues, often using tools like X-rays.
Patient Education & Preventive Care
Educating patients on proper oral hygiene practices, such as brushing, flossing, and nutrition, is a key role. I offer personalized guidance to help patients maintain good oral health & prevent future issues.
Assisting Procedures
In some cases, I assist dentists during procedures, such as administering local anesthetics or performing tasks related to periodontal treatment. I also help with charting & recording patient data during exams.
