Laura H., Dental Hygienist The last thing a patient wants from a visit to the dentist is a lecture from their hygienist. Laura knows this only too well. “My role”, she says, “is to provide dental hygiene services while coaching patients to prevent disease and maintain the health of their mouths and bodies.” Laura, who worked with us in 2005 before starting hygiene school at Shoreline Community College, has come back to us as an experienced hygienist to take over our hygiene program. Laura grew up in Shoreline, and now lives in Edmonds with her husband and cocker spaniel. You will enjoy getting to know Laura and appreciate her gentle care and knowledge, along with her wonderful sense of humor! |
