Chelsea,
Dental Hygienist
Chelsea is one of our dental hygienists. Since joining the team in 2018, Chelsea has greatly enjoyed getting know our patients, so she can help them achieve their oral healthcare goals. Chelsea studied at Lane Community College, and she has her nitrous oxide certification and her expanded practice and restorative function permits. She is happily married to Travis, and they have one dog, Sugar, a pig named Wilber, three cats, and a sugar glider. When she’s not hard at work, you’ll find Chelsea spending time with her family, friends, and animals. She also enjoys cooking, baking, hunting, and being outdoors. She has been a coffee drinker since middle school when she worked in her church coffee shop. She even has her own espresso machine and lots of flavors. She would love to own a bakery/coffee shop someday.
