Dental Hygiene Department

 

 

Dawn and Darion work closely with Dr. Papendick, often bringing to his attention areas of the practice that can be improved.

One of the focuses in our hygiene is periodontal therapies, or gum disease therapies.  They work diligently to be on the cusp of the newest dental health research so that they can best treat our patients.

Dawn is a registered dental  hygienist  and is  licensed in local anesthetic.  To be sure that she is in the know, she attends many hours of continuing education each year.   She takes pride in herself on making sure our patients are comfortable and relaxed.  Dawn is a delegate for the county Dental Hygiene Society.  Also, she is involved with her community by participating as a Master Gardener and Judging 4-H at the county fairs.

Darion is a new registered dental hygienist  from Florida.  He enjoys learning, working out, and having fun with his wife, family and friends.  He enjoys meeting new people.
