What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values patient care and teamwork.

I am a dedicated and experienced Dental Hygienist with over 17 years of clinical experience in preventive and therapeutic dental services. My proficiency in digital radiography, intraoral imaging, and periodontal care allows me to deliver comprehensive hygiene care that prioritizes patient comfort and education. I have a strong background in both independent patient management and collaborative dental team support, ensuring that I contribute effectively to the overall success of the dental practice.

Throughout my career, I have maintained the highest standards of infection control and patient safety. My experience includes working in diverse settings, from dental clinics to correctional facilities, where I have honed my skills in patient assessment, treatment planning, and follow-up scheduling. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development, which is evident in my certifications and ongoing education in dental hygiene practices.
