Meet the Team

Claire has worked in the healthcare field for 15 years and has a true passion for helping people. She is very friendly and knowledgeable, and she takes the time to sit with patients to help them with all of their clerical questions. Claire recently relocated to Delaware County with her husband, Matt, and their three children. When Claire is not working, she enjoys cooking and being outdoors with her family and her two dogs, Ava and Cado.

Lauren is an indispensable member of our team, thanks to her dedication to the well-being of our patients. When she isn’t providing top-notch care at Wayne Dental Care, you might find her coaching our local high school cheerleading team. Luckily, our patients can benefit from her persistent spirit without having to be a pyramid base!

Ann brings more than 40 years of dental experience to Wayne Dental. She is a licensed Expanded Functions Dental Assistant and has taken many courses at the Las Vegas Institute (LVI) for cosmetic and posterior dentistry. Ann is married with two grown children and is also a proud “marmee.” When she is not treating patients, Ann loves entertaining friends and family and gardening.

A transplant from Oregon, Dorene has been a dental hygienist for more than 27 years. She and her husband enjoy transforming simple dwellings into dream homes for others. When Dorene isn’t providing our patients with the best dental care available, you will likely find her enjoying sporting events or indulging in a wine tasting. Wherever you encounter Dorene, she will be the greatest asset your teeth ever had.

Melanie graduated from the dental hygiene program at Montgomery County Community College and has been a dental hygienist since 2013. She loves her work and helping patients learn the best practices in oral hygiene. She is also passionate about cosmetic dentistry, as her firsthand experience has taught her how life-changing a confident smile can be. Melanie got married in 2016 and had her daughter in 2017. In her free time, she enjoys running.

Born in Ft. Benning, GA, Laura has been a dental hygienist for more than eight years. When she’s not providing our patients with the care we’re known for, you might find Laura walking, reading, or spending time with her children and friends. Her perfect day (away from the office, that is) would be spent reading a book on the beach and under the sun. Her sunny disposition endears her to our patients and team members alike.

Kristin has been in the medical field for 10 years. Kristin’s ability to adapt quickly and her caring personality makes her a perfect fit for our office. She is passionate about providing the complete patient experience, including comfort and knowledge of dentistry. She moved to Pennsylvania from Virginia in 2015. Kristin admits that she is truly thankful for having found a dedicated, family-oriented team where she feels at home. Her happiness and satisfaction are often credited to her rewarding interactions with her patients by educating and improving their dental and overall health. Kristin enjoys spending time with her husband and two children, being outdoors, and traveling.
