I love helping people by creating beautiful smiles. Dentistry is my canvas. I work with my patients to determine a plan of action, keeping health and well-being at the forefront. It is a joy to work with patients to give them what they want and what they can afford.
A native of Jackson, MS, I graduated from Terry High School and attended Tougaloo College for my undergraduate degree. In order to become a dentist, I spent the following years at the University of Connecticut School of Dentistry, where I earned my Doctorate of Dental Medicine.
Of course, my education didnt stop when I graduated. Over the past three decades, Ive continued my education to stay at the forefront of dental treatments and technology. Most recently, Ive taken some very interesting courses on the topics of cosmetic dentistry and the use of dermal fillers like Botox to relieve facial pain, in addition to improving ones appearance.
I am a proud resident of Middletown, CT, where I raised my son and daughter to be the wonderful people they are. My free time is spent enjoying all types of music, writing short stories and chick lit, attending church and book club, and watching and playing a wide variety of sports.
I am also dedicated to giving back to the community to make the world a better place for our children. I am a board member of the Buttonwood Tree Performing Arts & Cultural Center, chairman of Soul Passages (a book club Community Book Festival), organizer of the Sister Talk healthy living program at my church, and participant in the Sister Study Breast Cancer Research program.
Along with my fellow Sister 2 Sister book club members, I also adopt a family during the holidays to make sure their season is as merry and bright as possible. Giving back, both in the office and out, is what makes my life truly a joy.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
My job as a dental assistant gives me an outlet to help someone in need, which is what I strive to do each day. I lend a helping hand to Dr. Perry with anything that she needs, from assisting with procedures to ordering supplies. Being able to help so many different patients from many different backgrounds and ages is my favorite part of my job. It feels good to be able to assist in helping someone who has been suffering from a painful tooth or to help someone become more knowledgeable about their dental hygiene.
