Meet the Staff
Des Moines Family Dentistry is comprised of a team of experienced and energetic people whose goal is to communicate well with our patients and provide the best care possible!
Our Registered Dental Hygienist, Melissa, has worked in the dental field for more than 8 years. She has always been passionate about oral health, and enjoys educating her patients about the impact oral health has on their overall health. Her favorite part of her job is being able to meet and get to know her patients on a personal level. Melissa has been told repeatedly by her patients that she has a very gentle touch and in turn makes their experience getting their teeth cleaned more comfortable. When she is not working, Melissa enjoys spending time with her husband and two children.
Kristen joined our team as our front office coordinator in 2018. She has over 18 years experience in the dental industry, and she excels in helping our patients with their dental benefits and insurance claims. When she is not in the office, she enjoys spending time with her family, attending live music events, and gardening.
