Roxanne Monge - Dental Assistant

 

 Roxanne Monge
Dental Assistant

        Hiding behind her mask is a smile our patients love to see.  Roxanne has been Dr. Basta's "other" right hand and managing our back office since she joined our team in September 2006.

        Roxanne received her Dental Assisting Certification from Northwest College in 2002 and has been practicing dental assisting ever since.

        Some may perceive her quiet personality as shy, but we see it as one of our greatest asset for our patients as she is the greatest listener.  Our patients find comfort in confiding with Roxanne their greatest dental fears and anxieties.  She is able to help them overcome any apprehensions they may have by allowing them to verbalize their fears.

        Armed with years of experience in the dental field, Roxanne is able to effortlessly walk our patients through any procedure, big or small, while ensuring all their comfort needs are met.  She reinforces Dr. Basta's teachings to our patients on how to maintain their oral care long after they leave our practice.  Her quiet personality and sincere smile shed away any reservations our patients may feel.
