Brittney absolutely loves being a part of Team DSM. Our goal as a team is ultimately to educate our patients on their mouth and their needs and then this in turns allows our patient to make the best long-term dental decisions for themselves. Brittney feels honored to work alongside Dr Thompson in the most meticulous and articulate dental surgery cases. The technology aspect is astonishing and she stays completely intrigued. The process of walking with a patient through their dental journey from start to finish and to watch them regain their confident smile, is so rewarding. She loves the challenge of taking the severely apprehensive patient regarding dentistry and meeting them exactly where they are,at that very moment and reassuring them that they are deserving and the walk is definitely worth it.
My goal as a dental assistant is truly building a relationship with each patient and making a connection which results in sharing life stories and laughter. I am truly humbled to be part of such an amazing dental family. I did not realize that I could truly love my job as much I do!
