Its my pleasure to assist our patients with financial matters. At Central Dental Care, we want to make it possible for each patient to receive the care they need, when they need it. I help them make the most of their insurance benefits, and then create, submit, and follow-up on insurance claims.
I really enjoy working one-to-one with a patient. We develop real relationships, and I look forward to their visits as a time to hear the latest news, not just to check up on the health of their mouth. My days are spent cleaning teeth, providing periodontal maintenance and therapy, delivering anesthetic, and, most importantly, providing oral hygiene education. When a patient learns how to care for their oral health at home, then Ive done my job well!
I love helping our patients develop better oral health and great smiles. My job duties involve assisting Dr. Tim with various dental procedures, assisting with the fabrication of the CEREC single-visit crowns, and providing patient education. I also coordinate schedules for implant restorations and handle our inventory. All aspects of my work are enjoyable, but I most like the one-to-one time with our patients, getting to know them and sharing stories.
