Professional Philosophy Statement:My role as a dental hygienist is not only to clean teeth, but to connect with my patients that will build lasting relationships and establish trust. My goal is to have my patients at ease and view me as someone who they could trust to make them feel comfortable to ask any questions they have in mind. That is my job to listen to their concerns, be able to answer questions in a free judgment zone, and to provide the best service and education regarding their oral health. I will ensure my skills and knowledge provide a satisfying experience through empathy, honesty, and confidence to be able to have their needs met and make a difference in their lives.
