Meet our office manager, Pamela! Pam joined our office in May of 2021 and we couldnt be happier to have her. Pam has been working in the dental field since 1994. She went to school to become a dental assistant and graduated at the top of her class. She successfully practiced as a dental assistant in a periodontal practice, but after discovering how much she enjoyed learning office management, she was soon promoted to assistant office manager. Since then, Pam has worked as the head office manager at several practices.
Pam is an extremely hard working and dedicated office manager. On top of her full time position, she is also working to obtain her bachelors degree in Business Operations Management and maintains a 3.85 GPA. When not working or studying, she enjoys spending time with her family and 3 dogs (swipe to see her newest 4 legged addition, Sophie)! Her and her husband of 6 years, Stacy, have a large blended family with 7 children and 8 grandchildren. Additionally, she loves to cook, make jewelry, and travel! Recently, Pam has visited 20 states in the US, Nassau, and Italy, and has an upcoming trip planned to Hawaii!!
Chester, our most loved employee, worked at the office for his entire life. He was born at Dr. Tom's house in 2007 and although he was a still born, Dr. Tom brought him back to life with puppy CPR! He was our miracle pup and loved coming to the office everyday. When Chester was not at work, he enjoyed playing with his brother and mom at home, taking walks in the woods, and swimming in the ocean over the summer. Chester passed away in 2020 but will always be remembered!

This was my second time to the office. I was extremely nervous for an extraction of my crown and tooth since I'd never had this procedure before. Dr. Tom and his wonderful assistant calmed my nerves and spent extra time with me answering all my questions. They talked with me and not at me. As he worked, he made sure I did not feel anything sharp, and provided a break if I needed it. Every now and then his dog, Jasper, came quietly ;) into the room and believe it or not that was calming for me. I have some post pain but that is to be expected from what I had done. I know I can call the office tomorrow if I have any issues from procedure. Thank you very much for taking great care of me and my mouth.

Said I had a cavity and it needed to be filled - fortunately, I didn't listen, as it's been 3 years and my new dentist says my teeth are doing great.

This is the best dentist I've ever been to. I live in Tyngsboro and drive here just because they have excellent customer service, they're very nice, and it's always a comfortable experience. Did I mention I love the music they play every time I go? It makes me feel like I'm back home down south. Great dentist, good people, wonderful service.

I have been going to Dr. Tom Bjornson for dental care for over 10 years. He and his staff are consistently kind and responsive while delivering quality dental care. They have a nice, ground floor office conveniently located near the center of Lincoln. Plenty of parking too.
