We are pleased to welcome you and your family, and we look forward to working with you.

Lori

Dental Hygienist

My duties include examining patients for signs of oral diseases and providing preventive dental care. I also educate patients on ways to improve and maintain good oral health. Everything I do helps better the health, and therefore lives, of my patients. Even though I’ve only been a part of this team since 2013, I really love it here. Everyone works well together and pitches in whenever needed to provide the best care for our patients.

I am happily married to my husband of 11 years, and we have children, Emma Grace and Ian. I enjoy spending time with my family at the soccer field and doing things outdoors. I also enjoy shopping!

Laura

Front Office Coordinator

My duties include greeting patients in a kind and friendly manner, answering multiple phone lines, scheduling appointments, processing payments, and filing dental and medical claims. It is my goal to assist patients and my coworkers to the best of my ability each and every day. I love working with Dr. Sandlin and the rest of our staff because Dr. Sandlin is not only a great doctor, he’s a great man. We all get along and enjoy working together. We each go over and beyond our “daily duties” to help our patients.

I am happily married to my husband of 12 years, with two children, Laci and Abby. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.

Kelly

Dental Assistant

I am responsible for greeting and seating patients, setting up the operatory for dental treatments, and assisting Dr. Sandlin during procedures. I also assist in consultations and help answer post-delivery questions regarding their sleep apnea appliance, and process computer work-ups for neuromuscular orthotics, which help patients with headaches and TMJ problems. I enjoy seeing the smiles when they achieve the look they have always wanted, or when someone says, “I feel so much better,” after wearing their sleep apnea appliance or orthotic. I also love working with Dr. Sandlin and the rest of our staff. They are professional in their jobs and we all function well as a team. We are a “work” family, not just co-workers.
