Debby is a native of Ohio but has been in the Miami, Florida area since 1970.  She has been in the dental field since the young age of 15 when she began working as a dental assistant for the family dentist on Saturdays.  In South Florida, Debby attended Miami-Dade Community College and Florida International University and attained an A.S. in Dental Hygiene in 1975.  She has worked in specialty dental offices (Periodontist) in addition to General Dentistry.  She is our longest-tenured hygienist and has been with us since our inception in 2009.
Debby states the following in regard to her passion for what she does: “Dentistry has changed in many ways over the years. I enjoy teaching my patients how to care properly for their teeth and perform procedures that prevent progression of periodontal disease. It is so rewarding when I see someone progress from one with various dental problems to a person with a healthy and clean mouth.  One of my greatest rewards is to help make a person who is apprehensive and nervous become a relaxed dental patient. I very much enjoy working with people and maintaining a friendly yet professional atmosphere. Being part of a team and making it work is also a very important part of a successful practice.”  Many state that Debby has a unique, comfortable touch combined with a due diligence and skill required in achieving healthy and clean gums and teeth.

Debby has patients in our office dating back over 25 years which is a testament to her skills as a hygienist and kindness as a caregiver. Debby sees patient on Wednesday and Friday. Call us at 954-434-0600 to schedule an appointment with Debby.
