Christine, Biological Hygienist &
Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist

Christine attended Virginia Commonwealth University for her undergraduate studies, majoring in forensic science and Arabic. She graduated from the Dental Hygiene Program at the VCU School of Dentistry in 2010. She received the Colgate STAR Award, top 50 VCU Alumni Award, and has written several oral health articles, published in Your Health magazine.

She has 11 years of practice experience and absolutely loves her profession. Her favorite aspects of helping her patients are nutrition counseling and thinking outside of the box to work to improve not only their oral health, but also their overall health. In addition to her career, she has a passion for fitness and nature.

In her free time, Christine travels the world on standby, thanks to her flight attendant sister. If you have Christine as your hygienist be sure to ask why she chose dental hygiene as her profession, which actually happened by chance, when she was in the 8th grade!

Jerry has worked in many modalities of dentistry including family dentistry, periodontics, oral surgery and pediatric dentistry. She has spent six years of her assisting career in pediatric dentistry, where she enjoyed working with the children and their families.
