Our friendly, dedicated, and energetic team is committed to working with you and your family to create a positive experience every time you visit our dental practice in Bellingham, WA.We welcome you with warm smiles to our practice!
Im a floss threading, pocket probing, root planning, enamel scaling, periodontal preventing, oral cancer screening dental hygienist! I love getting to know my patients on a personal level and seeing improvements in their oral health. Both Dr. Gary Tetrick and Dr. Jill Tetrick are passionate about dentistry and keep up on the latest technologies. Our team works hard, and we even enjoy spending time together outside of the office. At home, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Ray, and our three dogs. I like to read, jog, watch movies, and shop! Being with my family and friends is my favorite.
I am one of the newest members of the Tetrick Dental team. I love working in this high energy, team-oriented office. Everyone I work with is caring, supportive and great with our patients. Our dentists are up to date on the latest techniques and provide excellent dental care. It has been fun and enjoyable getting to know our patients. Each day, my job as a dental assistant provides a new experience. I can honestly say I love my job!Outside of work, I have a ballerina and soccer player. My little ones keep me busy. I love camping, swimming, and horseback riding.
I have been a proud member of this team for over 20 years. While I enjoy working with patients of all ages, I have a special affinity for working with our young patients. Its so much fun to connect with children and watch them grow over the years. Everyone on our team loves what we do and shares a common interest in giving our patients a beautiful, healthy smile. I have lived in Bellingham my entire life and take great pride in the community. My husband of 27 years is also from Bellingham. We have three beautiful children and a brand new grandson. In my spare time I volunteer for the American Cancer Society and our local cancer center.
I am thankful every day for the opportunity to work in an environment like this! Being a part of the Tetrick Family Dentistry team, for the better part of a decade, has been incredibly rewarding. Everyone in our office is so positive and fun, and we genuinely enjoy each others company. In addition to great doctors and staff, it is so much fun to get to know our patients and hear about their lives. I am always learning about awesome vacation spots or family adventures. Life isnt all work and no play. In my free time I love to work out, trail run with my sweet yellow lab, Gemma, and travel!
Ever since I was in grade school, I knew dental hygiene was the career I wanted to have! Today, my passion for oral health continues to grow as I have worked with the patients and team members at Dr. Tetricks office. I love building trustworthy relationships with my patients and providing individualized care. I am proud to be an Eastern Washington University graduate, where I was inspired to begin my clinical teaching career in dental hygiene as well, at BTC.
As a fairly new member of our team, Ive really enjoyed getting to know our family of patients and building relationships with them. A big part of being a dental assistant is knowing how to make patients feel as comfortable as possible, and that starts with trust! Our team is confident in their abilities to give our patients the best care possible. I am a proud new mother of a baby boy, and have two wonderful stepchildren. My husband and I enjoy camping with family and friends. Fitness is also a huge part of my life.
I have been working in dentistry for 21 years. My first twenty years were spent as a chair-side assistant seeing materials and techniques evolve. Todays dentistry is amazing and sometimes life changing.
I am a life long resident of Whatcom County and am excited to have the opportunity to educate friends and families in this caring and spirited office.My husband and I have two girls and a Golden Retriever. We enjoy spending time outside and improving our yard. I like to cook and enjoy trying new food and wines.
Although Ive only recently joined Tetrick Family Dentistry, I already feel at home with this wonderful group of people. Everyone here genuinely loves their job and shares a passion for providing excellent care to our family of patients. Working in the front of the office, I love being one of the first people you see when you walk in the door. It is my goal to make each of our patients feel at home here as well.
Recently having moved to the beautiful town of Bellingham with my boyfriend, Stan, and our Boston Terrier, Hercules, we enjoy all of the outdoor activities this beautiful part of the country has to offer. On our days off, you will likely find us snowboarding at Mt. Baker or hiking one of the many beautiful trails here.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Staff and dentists are caring. I feel that My family receives great care here. They never push for procedures or other treatments that are not needed like some clinics I have gone to in the past.

Dr. Tetrick has a finely-tuned knowledge of dentistry and deep integrity. What a combination in a dentist, and I'm so deeply grateful I had a referral to her. My history with dentists has been mixed from very good to not-so-good, so I know how bad--and good--a visit to the dentist can be. She is a joy and confidence-inspiring.

Wonderful, helpful, and friendly staff. Highly recommend getting dental work done here. I cracked my front teeth in half after fainting and they were able to fix my smile. No one can tell my front 2 teeth are fake.

Dr. Jill has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced and can't recommend her enough. She is kind, patient, and truly listens to your needs and concerns. The office staff, hygienists, and assistants are all kind, professional, and helpful. The facility is well cared for and is centrally located.

(Translated by Google) It has been the best experience I have had since I came to the United States. They answer all questions with a genuine smile that shows the passion they have for their work. English is my third language, so sometimes I have some problems when I see a dentist since the technical vocabulary is somewhat difficult. However, they were patient and explained each process to me in the clearest way. Nothing that I recommend to anyone! (Original) Ha sido la mejor experiencia que he tenido desde que llegue a los Estados Unidos. Responden todas las preguntas con una sonrisa genuina que muestra la pasion que tienen por su trabajo. El ingles es mi tercera lengua, por tanto algunas veces tengo algun que otro problema cuando veo algun dentista ya que el vocabulario tecnico es algo dificil. Sin embargo, ellos fueron pacientes y me explicaron cada proceso de la manera mas clara. !Nada que se los recomiendo a cualquiera!

I am so impressed with Tetrick Family Dentistry. Not only is the care absolutely first rate, but the staff, from Dr. Jill, her assistants, the dental hygienists to billing and reception are highly skilled and exude warmth and concern for their patients. They are simply the best I've ever encountered, anywhere.

I went to another dental practice (bham dental group) in Bellingham and they botched my cavities and were a really painful experience. After coming here it made a world of difference! They were so helpful with scheduling and billing and didn't have any hidden charges. Both dr Tetricks were so nice and friendly and helped a lot when I was nervous about my cavities. My fillings were practically painless! They are a great practice!

.I needed a painful tooth evaluated. Dr. Gary Tetrick was quick to assess and see the problem. The tooth was cracked on the back side all the way down the root. He did an AMAZING ( not surprising) job of numbing me up and ever so gently with the technique of perfection he had that tooth pulled in minutes. Bye, bye pain.... I was given great instructions by his staff of how to care for the extraction sight. I could name names, but I'd feel bad if i forgot someone... the whole staff is impressive, engaging, caring, efficient ... thank you all for the great care SEPT 2021: BACK AGAIN.For a small area of decay and chipped tooth. Every aspect of Tetricks clinic is still top notch. Great care, efficiency, kindness, quality work. Thx Jill , Gary and ALL THE STAFF!!!!
