Hi, I'm April! I've been a receptionist with WDA since 2008.  This is my first experience in the dental field and I have enjoyed working here for the past three years.   I love seeing patients come in scared about going to the dentist and leaving with a big smile! Outside of the office, I look forward to spending time with my family and friends! I like to shop for shoes, go on road trips and cook.

Lori

Hello! My name is Lori and I am an Expanded Functions Dental Assistant for Dr. Dale and Dr. Jeff.   I spent the first six  years of my career as a dental assistant then moved onto orthodontics for the next ten years.  I returned to school for my EFDA licence and joined the team at WDA in 2005.  Being an EFDA has enabled me to assist our doctors in many ways including placing fillings and making temporary crowns.  My profession has given me the opportunity to help educate our patients so they can receive the best dental treatment possible.

My husband and I have one son, Blake and a beagle named Gunner. I read almost every evening and I volunteer at church where I recently became a member of the mission board. Everyone who knows me knows I love the shore in the summer.

My name is Loriann and I have been a Dental Assistant for Dr. Dale and Dr. Jeff since 2008 and have been in the dental field for over 15 years. One of the favorite parts of my job is to get to know each patient on an individual level and help them feel more at ease with procedures. When not working with patients,  I love spending time with my husband, Jeff, and our children, Jason and Katherine.  I spend much of my free time driving my children to their many activities.  Just call me a "hockey mom"!

Aurora

Hello! My name is Aurora and I've been a Dental Hygienist since 1988 and have been with Dr. Dale and Dr. Jeff since 2004.

Outside of the office I love to cook and read in my free time. I also enjoy vacations with my family, especially at the beach.

Hi, I'm Beth! I am a Dental Hygienist and have been with the practice since 1975.
