Janelle

Expanded Functions Dental Assistant

Coming from a background in nursing, I was introduced to dentistry during training for disaster relief. I loved the powerful impact dentistry could have in helping others, especially in needy countries. In 2018 I decided to get my certification as a dental assistant and joined the team at Collins Dental in 2021. I am a space enthusiast, spending many hours watching launches and listening to my husband share his work day at NASA. I have two kiddos who have started the journey of “adulting” having just turned 20 and 18. I am thrilled to be part of the team at Collins Dental and look forward to many years getting to know the amazing patients we serve. My personal hero is: Got to say Jesus. No one has ever done so much for me…given everything, including their life, so I could spend eternity with them. Mind blown. I love it when: I’ve ended my work day knowing I have made a difference in the lives of our patients. When I am not at work: I’m traveling to third-world countries doing dental clinics. It’s quite humbling to see the gratitude and generosity people, who have so little, give you just for caring for their teeth. I always get 1000 times more back than I ever give. My most used phrase is: “I love working here!”. I am always singing: any song that pops into my head; can’t stop humming. My favorite part of my job is our amazing patients. I have the most amazing: husband. Almost 30 years married and it just gets better and better! He’s a great dad, landscape expert, home-remodel guru, a pastor and a rocket scientist to boot! I’m most proud when: I see my kids serve others with a true heart.

Digital and 3D X-rays

Our digital X-rays emit less radiation, take images faster without any need for processing, and allow us to optimize the images so we can provide a more precise diagnosis.

Cavity Detection

The DIAGNOdent is a pen-like device that uses laser fluorescence to help us see cavities in your teeth. There is no x-ray exposure and allows for a more detailed look at the health of your teeth. The DIAGNOdent is an excellent tool to find early signs of lesions on the teeth. The earlier they are detected, the sooner we can remove the decay. When cavities are small we can save more of the natural tooth, keeping your smile healthy and strong.

Intraoral Camera

We use our intraoral camera to get a closer look at your oral health while also helping to bring you into your own diagnosis and treatment plan. The images from the camera can be projected onto a screen for you to get a dentist’s view of any signs or issues we see.

Laser Dentistry

If you have periodontal issues our laser therapy might be a good fit. Lasers can target and accurately remove diseased tissue. It also helps support the regrowth of healthy tissue. There are several benefits of laser periodontal treatment, including:

Minimally invasive
Minimizes bleeding
Shorter healing time
Customizable for each patients level of disease.
