What have you done for your oral hygiene today? October is National Dental Hygiene Month, a month-long campaign focused on raising public awareness about oral health and hygiene. It’s also a reminder to thank your dental hygienist! At FDA, we have an amazing team of hygienists who are all wonderful ambassadors of excellent oral health: Alex, Diann, Erin, Jean, Kelly, and Lydianne. They are all committed to putting their patients’ comfort first and they love educating others about creating a personalized oral health routine. To help you get to know our rockstar hygienists a little better, they each share what they love about their work:
Alex
“Helping patients feel confident about their smile is such a rewarding experience! I love motivating patients to keep up with their oral care. Also, my goal is always to help patients feel relaxed at their appointment…I want patients to enjoy their visits here at FDA.”
Diann
“I love the enthusiasm created by the whole team learning together. We can branch off and learn about other things and then come back and share. Since we think of things in the long term, I’ve learned that listening today will help tomorrow.”
Erin
“FDA takes the time to get to know patients to create individual treatment plans based on their needs and wants. I love educating my patients about the new developments in dentistry.”
Jean
“The teamwork at FDA is unmatched. Helping hands are everywhere. The dental care is modern, conservative, and thorough; and it’s what I want for my own family.”
Kelly
We go above and beyond for our patients. In fact, I’ve built up a clientele that I’ve seen for so long, I just can’t wait to catch up with them during their next visit.”
Lydianne
“I especially enjoy working with patients who have dental anxiety. Meeting them where they are, addressing their concerns, and identifying what I can do to make them more comfortable is my favorite part of the job.”
