Denise
Front Desk Coordinator
I am the first smiling face you see when you walk through our door. Meeting new patients and their families, welcoming them to our practice, and then watching them progress through treatment and seeing their excitement at their new smile ... I love all these things. I’m in charge of answering our phones, maintaining our schedule, and setting appointments, to make sure that we have plenty of time with each patient.
My husband and I live in Plymouth and enjoy spending time with our children and grandchildren. During the summer months, you will find me boating on the nearby ponds. I also have a passion for interior design and helping others.
Marianna
Assistant
I graduated from Dental Assisting School in 2016. I worked in emergency medicine prior to working in dentistry. I have worked my way thru all the specialties, but I find orthodontics the most rewarding. I love seeing how we transform our patient's smiles.
When I am not working I enjoy being out in nature, also my family and I are acid travelers. Some other hobbies of mine are cooking, hiking and ceramics. I love pottery and hope to start my own pottery studio in my spare time.
Amanda
Assistant
I graduated from dental assisting school in 2010. Since then, I have become certified in HIPAA, OSHA, and CPR. My favorite part about my job is helping to ease patient anxieties while they are in our office, make them feel more comfortable, and make sure they leave with a smile!
Outside of work, I like to spend time with my husband and rescue pup Huck. I enjoy four wheeling and exploring new trails, as well as reading.
Lexi
Assistant
Interacting with our patients is my favorite part of my workday. They’re all so unique and interesting, and they’re so excited about getting new smiles! Seeing the end result, when treatment is completed, and the patients see that their hard work has paid off, fills me with happiness, and I’m grinning right along with them. I work closely with Dr. Ryan: doing routine maintenance with braces and appliances. I also insert and remove appliances, take photos, impressions, and X-rays, and offer patient education.
I live on Cape Cod with my husband and kids, where I was born and raised. I love being outside whether we are hiking in the woods with our dog, camping, boating, catching some sun on the beach, or even just enjoying my own yard.
Michele
Assistant
It’s incredible to witness how excited patients are when they’re starting treatment, and then seeing them progress and their new smiles develop. The best day is, of course, debanding day. I love seeing their big, beautiful new smiles! Being a part of their transformation is very fulfilling and I am glad that I get to help our amazing patients. My work duties include preparing patients for braces, changing the colors on the braces, answering questions from our parents and patients, and of course, taking braces off when you are finished.
Outside of work, I enjoy vacationing with my family, crafts, and running.
Brianna
Treatment Coordinator
I have worked as a Certified and Licensed Orthodontic Assistant since 2012. It's been a joy to help transform smiles for so many years. I have now transitioned to a Treatment Coordinator, and I absolutely love it! Although different from assisting, being the Treatment Coordinator allows me to use my knowledge and skills to help our new patients understand what treatment will look like, as well as the steps it takes to get started with their orthodontic journey. The best part of my job is getting to see my patients excited to start treatment and get the smile they will always love!
When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my spouse, Alan and our beautiful girls. We are lovers of traveling, especially to warmer climates. I enjoy heated yoga, cooking, being outdoors gardening and soaking up the sun in the summer.
Kristy
Scheduling Coordinator and Receptionist
I have worked in orthodontics for over twenty years! I am currently working here at the front desk and loving it. I have previously worked as an assistant and treatment coordinator. I have an extensive background in orthodontics and it is particularly helpful when speaking with patients and parents. My favorite port of orthodontics is seeing the end result. Not only are smiles transformed here with Dr. Ryan, to see the confidence patients at displaying with their new smiles is such a wonderful feeling.
I am originally from the Midwest. I moved to the area over ten years ago. I currently live with my husband, our two sons and our two dogs. I enjoy spending time with my family and attending all our sons sporting events. I also enjoy reading, gardening, yoga and pilates.
