Meet Megan our Dental Assistant. Megan graduated from The Delaware Area Career Centers Dental Assisting Program in 2006 and currently has 9 years of experience as a dental assistant. She enjoys crafts, home decorating, and spending time with her son and family.
My name is Natalia. I have been a practicing dental hygienist since 2001 and an Expanded Functions Dental Auxiliary since 2009. I am a graduate of The Ohio State University.
While still in high school, I enlisted in 1988 and retired from the Army Reserve after 32 years as a Command Sergeant Major.In December of 1990, I was activated to support Desert Storm and served at Walter Reed Army Hospital. I was then mobilized and deployed in 2004 to Kuwait and Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom II and III. Additionally, I served on humanitarian missions in both Panama and Ecuador providing health care for the indigenous populations.While in the Army Reserve, I earned several degrees and have those degrees in thanks to the Army.
While in the military, I learned respect, discipline, and the ability focus on the task on hand. I have taken those skill sets and applied them to my job as a dental hygienist. I will treat you with the same respect I have for our country, my family, and myself. After working as a dental hygienist for 7 years, I felt that I could do more which is when I applied to The Ohio State University Expanded Dental Auxiliary program (EFDA). I found a new passion as an EFDA and would use both skills to help patients. It wasn’t long after becoming an EFDA that Ohio gave hygienists the opportunity to administer local anesthetic. I use all three skills to help Northpointe patients on a daily basis. I focus on the patient’s well-being as a whole and not just a number.
You will not find a more focused or dedicated hygienist than myself. I will guide and help you to be a better you through nutrition counseling, focusing on the whole body and how it impacts the mouth. I look forward to working with you when you join our Northpointe Dental family.
I have been married to my husband for over 30 years and have 2 adult children. I enjoy spelunking(caving), hiking, Geocaching, bicycling, running, weight lifting and reading. My hobbies are wide ranged. I knit, crochet, paint on both canvas and pottery, sew clothes and wood working. I’m not afraid to try new things and am willing to look outside the box.
I graduated from the Eastland Career Center Dental assisting program in 1995 and completed my Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene (BSDH) in 2006, at The Ohio State University. I have recently retired from dental hygiene, and using my experience now at the front desk at Northpointe Family Dentistry.
I enjoy live entertainment, shopping and cooking.
I am a mother of 5 with an amazing husband. I was a forklift driver for 14years and decided it wasn’t something i wanted to do for the rest of my life. My aunt told me I should try dental assisting and less then a year later I went back to school and graduated from academy DA in May 2024. By June of 2024 I got my first dental assisting job at Northpointe family dentistry. In my spare time when I am not running around for my kids sports I enjoy spending time with friends, throwing some awesome Halloween parties and traveling to new places with my husband.
