Kendra

Kendra Myers – RDH

Kendra had an interesting career path on her way to becoming a hygienist: from serving in the Navy to sales and customer service in communications. But as a hygienist she finds her greatest satisfaction in helping her patients to regain and maintain their best oral health. Kendra enjoys using the advantages of technology to aid in providing care and education, but her manner is always warm and personal while showing “exceptional patience.” She understands the challenges of changing habits and is great at exploring options with her patients so they can find answers that work for them.

Kendra is passionate about helping people appreciate the importance of periodontal (gum) health because she knows that inflammation and infection from gum disease affects the entire body. She was instrumental in bringing in the “PREVISOR” periodontal disease risk assessment tool, training the team and incorporating it into our patient hygiene appointments. We know it has an impact on helping patients save their teeth and be overall healthier. Since joining our practice in 2006, she has earned certifications in Local Anesthesia, In-Office Tooth Whitening, Administering and Monitoring Nitrous Anesthesia, and Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy. Kendra loves spending time outdoors with her family and they are all very involved in sports. A New Hampshire native, she lives with her husband and sons in Merrimack.

Shanna

Shanna Welvaert – RDH

Shanna first came to our practice in 2007 as an intern in the dental assisting program at NHTI – she actually stayed with us for two rotations instead of the usual one. It was such a good fit that she joined us as a permanent team member soon after her graduation, and it’s been wonderful ever since! In 2011, Shanna achieved national certification as a dental assistant, which acknowledges her high level of skill and knowledge. She became a hygienist after graduating with her certification in July 2019. She`s always ready to help patients, dentists, or staff in any way needed and is routinely thinking at least one step ahead. She is passionate about making a difference in her patients’ lives by educating them the oral and systemic connection, which enables and empowers them to take care of their health in the best possible way. Patients routinely comment on the smooth and easy way they experience their treatment – and appreciate the “TLC” call that she gives them after each appointment.

Additionally, Shanna is an important leader in keeping the clinical area as a whole running smoothly and always in the right way. She can’t be beaten for organization and efficiency and supporting the team completely. We also have to mention that Shanna has a wonderful joy of life that often comes out in giggles – and we can’t help but smile and laugh along with her. In fact, we often hear patients joining her in hearty laughter – an indication of the level of comfort and enjoyment she helps provide during appointments. Shanna greatly enjoys motherhood with her five beautiful daughters. She lives in Manchester with her family and enjoys her time off socializing with friends.
