Our Dental Team

Our exceptional, friendly professional staff is our greatest asset. They are excited about what they are doing, have high standards of quality and integrity, and are motivated to achieve the best results for our family of patients.

We constantly update ourselves with courses, seminars, and other forms of continuing education. The courses are directed toward improving our skills with general dental procedures, as well as cosmetic procedures such as bleaching, bonding, and veneers. Our professional staff is experienced and caring – about our patients, their concerns and each other.

We are extremely proud of what we do, and of our reputation for excellence. We pride ourselves on staying on the cutting edge of dentistry and patient communication. Feedback from our patients about an experience in our office is always welcomed.

Our highly trained, dedicated and motivated staff has one primary goal – your utmost comfort!

Chrissy – Dental Assistant

ChrissyIt was natural for Chrissy to have an affinity to dentistry since her dad is a dentist in Connecticut. We are lucky that Chrissy’s husband talked her into moving to nearby, Achusnet. Chrissy has become a very valuable member of our team. Chrissy’s background at U Mass Dartmouth and BCC has brought her excellent dental skills. With her sweet personality, she has the gift of making friends with our patients quickly and putting them at ease in the dental chair. Chrissy prepares our patients for their treatment, ensures the sterility of the treatment areas, and assists the dentists during their dental procedures. Chrissy is very gifted in making patients feel comfortable and she does whatever she can to address any concerns and answers any questions our patients may have. Chrissy is “our famous assistant.” Every year she has the honor of working with cheerleaders and dancers from around the country to choreograph the NFL Pro Bowl Halftime Show in Hawaii. Everyone loves hearing all her stories when she returns. Chrissy’s favorite part of her position is making a difference in her patient’s lives by helping them meet their dental goals and needs. “This is a wonderful place to work; we do excellent dentistry, everyone gets along great and we have a lot of fun with our extended family of patients!”

Sheri enjoys attending continuing education courses and prides herself on always being involved in state-of-the-art dentistry. Her favorite part of being a hygienist is her long-term relationships she builds with her patients.
