Nicole, Dental Hygienist

Nicole started her career in the dental field as a dental assistant. During these foundational years, Nicole became passionate about educating and helping patients. After four years as a dental assistant, she set her sights on a career in dental hygiene. Upon graduating in 2004 with her degree in Dental Hygiene, Nicole started at Smart Dental Care and has thrived here ever since. Over the years, Nicole has developed great relationships with her patients. Her professionalism and zeal for patient care exemplify her love for dental hygiene. Nicole is very thorough in her work and strives for the highest quality of patient care. Her ability to provide patient comfort and tailor her work around the needs of her patients is highly regarded. In addition, Nicole provides every patient with a head and neck exam as part of her routine cancer screening. We particularly value in her efforts in this regard as Nicole has found cancerous and benign anomalies through these screenings. Nicole was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2008 and has since then made every effort to raise thyroid cancer awareness and provide her patients with this critical care.

Nicole and her husband have three children. Nicole loves watching her children grow and develop their talents. She is their biggest fan and loves cheering them on from the side lines. Nicole and her family enjoy the outdoors, razor rides, boating and fishing.
