Our Hygiene Team...

Jackie

Jackie

Jackie has worked in this office for 26 years, 20 of those years as a dental hygienist. Jackie feels a Hygienist is not just someone who "cleans teeth" but rather "an educator, a Periodontal Therapist and a friend." She believes Periodontal Therapy benefits her patients because it is less stressful on the patient and the hygienist and most importantly, her patients are healthier and happier. Some tips she likes to share with her patients are to floss, get regular check ups, and get PeriodontalTherapy if necessary.


Tasha

Tasha
For the past 6 years, Tasha has worked full time as a dental hygienist. In may, 3 of those 6 years will have been spent at Dr. Diane D. Romaine & Associates. a tip she would like to offer her patients is "Floss every day, even if your gums bleed. Bleeding is an unhealthy sign and not continuing to floss is the worst thing you can do." As a hygienist she feels it is not only necessary to help patients with the prevention of tooth and gum disease, but also to provide a listening ear for her patients. Ultrasonic hand pieces have been beneficial to Tasha because she has more control over the instruments, but more importantly, her patients are healthier.

Lynn

Lynn
After working in this office for over 28 years, Lynn believes a hygienist is not only someone who performs a multitude of dental procedures but also someone who educates the patient on maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Patients don't realize the systemic ramifications of poor oral hygiene." She wants to help her patients succeed at taking care of their teeth and gums at home, whether it is teaching them to use a water-pick, or showing them how to floss correctly on a daily basis. Before Periodontal Therapy became customary Lynn considered retiring from hygiene, but now she has felt motivated to continue working and witnessing the successful outcomes of Periodontal Therapy, which is her favorite part of the job.
