Licensed registered dental hygienist delivering preventive periodontal care with patient-focused safety and comfort.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Licensed Registered Dental Hygienist experienced in delivering comprehensive oral healthcare under dentist supervision in fast-paced clinical settings. I focus on preventive care, periodontal therapy, radiography, and clear patient education that helps people feel confident and comfortable.
In my current and recent roles, I provide pediatric and general hygiene services: cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, oral assessments, and periodontal assessment & charting. I prepare operatories, handle instruments, and keep clinical workflows organized so care stays efficient without sacrificing quality.
I’m especially committed to patient safety. I follow strict infection control protocols and support sterilization processes while performing radiographs and other chairside procedures. I take pride in accurate charting, careful evaluation, and consistent attention to comfort during every appointment.
Before becoming a hygienist, I worked as a Dental Assistant, supporting chairside procedures, taking X-rays, preparing operatories, and managing administrative tasks. That background strengthens how I collaborate with the care team and helps me contribute smoothly to treatment planning from the start.
