Meet Our Dental Hygienists

John has been a registered dental hygienist with us since October 2005. Before joining our team, he graduated from Howard University. Being a dental hygienist allows him to partner with patients in helping them achieve optimal oral health; he knows many patients are nervous about going to the dentist and does his best to make clients as comfortable as possible. Because John has an outgoing personality, he is able to talk to people from all walks of life. Being able to relate to many different personalities really helps in his field, as he is capable of identifying with anyone! When he’s not helping at the office, he enjoys working out, cooking, and traveling.

She is committed to providing compassionate, personalized care and helping every patient feel comfortable and informed at each visit.
