Meet the Team
Francee
Registered Dental Hygienist
Welcome! I am a registered dental hygienist, and I examine and chart your gum, bone and tooth health. I also help perform dental cleanings for adults and children, and periodontal treatments. I enjoy visiting with my patients when they come in prior to cleaning their teeth. That way I get caught up on their latest news like vacations and family events. I really enjoy getting to know the person behind the smile. At home, I live with my son, Evan, and our two dogs. Wylie is a Labradoodle and Redd is a Golden Retriever and Lab mix.
Kristina
Dental Assistant/Treatment Operations Coordinator
Hello, I am a dental assistant and treatment operations coordinator, and I help as a lab technician and dental assistant. I love Interacting with patients. I like finding out who they are, what they care about and I like to make them feel special! I like being part of a team that improves people's lives. We take people out of pain, make them healthier, and sometimes even improve their self-esteem. Outside the office, I love spending time with my boyfriend, Liam. I also enjoy photography, camping, hiking and just being outdoors!
Melissa
Dental Assistant
Hello, my name is Melissa. I have been a certified expanded functions dental assistant for 16 years. I have assisted in all aspects of dentistry. I became a dental assistant because as a child, I had very unpleasant experiences in the dental office. Therefore, I strive to make sure my patients are getting the best experience as possible. And with such a wonderful team and exceptional dentistry, I am lucky and proud to call Shevlin Dental Center my "dental family".
I moved from Salem in 2006 and got married to Arik in 2008. We have two Mainecoon cats named Lily and Rowan. Someday we hope to start a family. In my spare time, I like to spend time with family and friends, play golf, camp, garden and do projects around our house.
Jaclyn
Hygiene Coordinator
As the Hygiene Coordinator I am proud to be a part of the Shevlin Dental team and caring for our patients. I have worked in the dental field for over 30 years and enjoy making a difference in people's lives. My goal at Shevlin Dental is learning about each of our patients needs which will help them maintain a healthy smile. We have a terrific team of professionals and two very talented dentists who inspire me. I look forward to many years of caring for our patients while working at Shevlin Dental.
My husband and I moved to Bend in 1999 with our two boys. When not working we enjoy, golfing, boating, fishing and the great outdoors. I feel blessed to work at Shevlin Dental and having the ability to live in Central Oregon with my family.

April
Registered Dental Hygienist
I am honored to be part of the team here at Shevlin Dental Center. As your hygienist, I look forward to getting to know you and providing you with the tools and education to maintain a healthy smile. My husband, Colby, grew up in Bend and has been trying to get back ever since he left. So, in September 2013 we made the move from Portland and welcomed our first child, Cash, shortly after. Needless to say, we spend most of our time keeping up with a busy boy and enjoy showing him all Bend has to offer.
