Alaina started out in the dental field as a dental assistant.  She received her dental assisting education at Massasoit Community College.  She has been here since 2006 in both roles as a dental assistant and then as our front desk coordinator.  She brings invaluable knowledge and experience from her clinical experience that she is able to apply to her administrative role.  She is the voice of the practice.  Parents often find much comfort after speaking to her because she is able to answer most of their dental questions from being in this office for many years and having been a chairside clinical assistant also.

Jennifer was born into dentistry. Her mother had a long-lasting career in the dental field.  So it was only natural, that Jen would follow in her mother's footsteps.  Initially, Jen received her dental assisting education at Massasoit Community College.  She worked in the office as a dental assistant for many years before deciding to further her education in dental hygiene.  She received her dental hygiene degree at Vermont Technical College and returned to the practice as our dental hygienist.
