When forming Bay Breeze Dentistry, Dr. Santana knew that she wanted an office setting that her patients would be able to enjoy.  In order to accomplish this, she surrounded herself with not only some of the best equipment, but with the best team members.  Dr. Santana specifically searched for those that have an understanding for quality, thorough work, caring and thoughtfulness for the patient, and an upbeat attitude in the office.  From the minute you step in the office to the time you leave, the team of Bay Breeze Dentistry is there to make the patient's experience a pleasurable visit!

HYGIENISTS

                                                        Janet, RDH

Janet has been a practicing clinical hygienist for over 30 years, primarily here in the NH seacoast, after serving a short time in the USAF and graduating from the University of Virginia and Onondaga College in upstate NY. She has been happily working in several dental practices over the years while raising her children, a daughter , a nurse practitioner who lives in Vt and her son who works at Merrill Lynch in Manhattan. She is also the proud grandmother of a charming little girl and bouncing baby boy!

When not taking care of teeth, she enjoys being a voracious reader and loves to cross country ski and kayak and far prefers a book and a hammock to a treadmill or a gym. Afer all, you can floss your teeth while swinging in a hammock!

She promises her patients that she is gentle, understanding and tries her best to help you, never scold you! She loves her work at Bay Breeze Dentistry where we all enjoy the high tech advantages to deliver first rate dental care to all. She looks forward to meeting you to help you gain a winning smile!
