Debbie
Dental Hygienist
I have been providng gentle hygiene care in order to improve and maintain patients’ smiles for over 20 years. Overall, my favorite part of being a hygienist is the ability to help patients achieve better health by directing and educating them on the importance of oral health, and, in turn, seeing a positive change. Our staff works so well together as a dental team that we act more as a family unit. We all put in 100% effort and we are always willing to help one another at any time. From the moment you walk into our office, you’ll notice the difference!
I am blessed with a wonderful husband and three kids. I enjoy swimming, biking, running, and hiking in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
Lexie
Dental Hygienist
Lexie graduated with her dental hygiene degree from Carrington College in 2022. She moved to the PNW from Arizona, that same year, to pursue a career in Washington.
She enjoys building trusting relationships with patients and making sure they have a comfortable experience at the dentist. She attends the pacific northwest dental convention every year, to learn more about oral health and integrate it into patient care. Sleep medicine is one of her favorite topics and she hopes to pursue myofunctional therapy in the future.
Lexie spends her free time with her fiancé and their border collie. She enjoys being outdoors, camping, fishing, and taking their dog on new adventures. Her other hobbies include video games, painting, and working with clay.
