Dominique
Registered Dental Hygienist
Dominique brings both experience and heart to everything she does. She has been practicing dental hygiene since 2004 and has built her career around one core belief: when patients understand their health, they make better decisions for their future.
Her path into dentistry started early. Growing up in a family connected to the dental field, she was introduced to the world of teeth and oral health as a child by her grandfather, a dental technician. That early exposure sparked a lifelong interest that eventually led her to earn her degree in Dental Hygiene from New York City College of Technology, along with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida.
That background shapes how she approaches patient care today. Dominique doesn’t just “clean teeth.” She focuses on helping patients understand what’s happening in their mouth, why it matters, and how it connects to their overall health. Her goal is for every patient to leave feeling more informed, more confident, and more in control of their health.
Patients often describe Dominique as warm, thorough, and easy to talk to. She takes the time to listen, answer questions, and create a comfortable experience, especially for those who may feel anxious about dental visits.
Outside the office, Dominique enjoys spending time with her husband and three sons. Whether it’s being outdoors, cooking, or enjoying family time, she brings that same sense of connection and care into the way she treats her patients.
For Dominique, the most rewarding part of her work is simple: helping people improve their gum health and seeing the impact that has on their overall well-being.
