Registered Dental Hygienist: Kelly Graskemper, RDH

Kelly Graskemper, RDH, is the director of the highly successful CDE non-surgical periodontal program. Periodontal disease of any degree is not accepted within the program. We want every patient to have "Beach Body Gums", total soft tissue health. The patients all respond to her thorough and efficient style with the same phrase: "That was the best hygiene appointment I have every had." Kelly will guide you to that state of optimal dental health and you will never want to return to bleeding, sore gums again.

Kelly has the ideal touch of sweetness and friendliness and that makes her exceptional when it comes to handling children. Whether they, or the parent, are fearful, uncertain, nervous, or just plain do not want to be there, Kelly's engaging, loving style will gently bring your child around to having an enjoyable experience each time they come to CDE. Parents can get the same treatment.
