Kristina’s career in dentistry began in high school in 1982 as a dental assistant. She graduated with a degree in dental science from Fairleigh Dickinson Dental School in 1989. One of the most memorable and valuable training experiences of her career was serving as a contracted civilian hygienist at MCRD (Marine Corps Recruiting Depot) in San Diego, California.
She finds dentistry extremely rewarding and has built many long-standing relationships over the years. Keeping up with the latest practices and continuing education courses is very important to Kristina, allowing her to provide the utmost care to her patients. Over time, she transitioned from full-time to part-time practice.
Recently, she and her fiancé moved to the Poconos in Pennsylvania, but she still enjoys coming in to practice a few times a month. Since relocating, she has pursued real estate in Lords Valley/Pike-Wayne and partnered with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.
In her leisure time, Kristina enjoys traveling with her fiancé, spending time with her beloved pets—Beau (dog), and Gronk & Konan (cats)—and staying active in her community. She serves as the secretary of her pickleball club, enjoys reading with her book club, and has recently picked up golf again.
Barbara has been practicing dental hygiene for over 30 years. She graduated with a degree in dental hygiene from Onondaga College in Syracuse, NY, and obtained her anesthesia license and license to practice in New Jersey in 2008. Barbara became a professional educator on behalf of Waterpik in 2020.
Barbara enjoys combining professionalism and humor while treating her patients. Taking continuing education courses allows her to stay up-to-date with the latest innovations and technologies in dental health.
Outside the office, Barbara enjoys traveling the world and spending quality time with her wonderful husband, two sons, daughter, and daughter-in-law.
