Meet Our Dental Team – Chelsea, MI
Our Kind and
Experienced Team
It doesn’t matter how talented a dentist is at the end of the day. This is because they can only provide the best care possible when they have a talented and supportive team to help them along the way. Our team members always work hard to ensure your loved ones experience a positive dental visit. As you walk into our dental office, you’ll be greeted with a big smile and asked how your needs can be met. Take a look at the biographies below to learn more about our team members and their stories better!
Lisa, Patient Care Manager
Lisa has been a part of the dental field for 21 years, 8 of which have been spent here at Healthy Smiles, and she says she absolutely LOVES our patients and staff, which she considers to be extended family. When not at work, she likes to just relax at home and spend time with her son Cole and boyfriend Dave.
Rosie, Dental Hygienist, RDH
Rosie has worked in the dental field for 7 years so far, and she still feels overjoyed when she sees a patient’s oral health improve as the direct result of her care. After obtaining her hygiene training, she earned additional certifications in local anesthesia, nitrous oxide administration, dental X-rays, and CPR. She is married with a young son and is expecting a baby daughter very soon. Her hobbies involve doing pretty much anything outdoors, from boating to swimming to camping and beyond. She and the family also love to just sit and relax with their old friendly dog, Chip.
Alex Eccleton, Dental Hygienist
Alex’s passion for dentistry started in school when she attended the Jackson Area Career Center for the Dental Occupations program. This inspired her to work as a dental assistant while pursuing her associate degree in dental hygiene. Since joining our team, she has loved helping those who haven’t been to the dentist in a long time improve their oral health and learn about the importance of good dental care. Seeing the kids is fun too! Away from the office, she enjoys spending time with her fiancé and their dog, Rex.
Connie, Dental Hygienist
Connie has an impressive 30+ years of experience in the dental field, and more than five of them have been spent right here! She loves coming into work each day to meet new people, educate patients on the importance of proper dental hygiene, and help them have a terrific smile. She attended Oakland Community College and has completed additional training in nitrous oxide, local anesthesia, and CPR.
Connie is a Michigan native! She loves spending time with her husband, four children, and three grandchildren away from the office. Going to the movies is another favorite pastime of hers.
Cole, Dental Assistant
Cole studied at Olivet College and has been involved in the dental field for a few years now. By far, his favorite part of this job is getting to see and work with so beautiful people each day! Away from the dental office, his top priority is spending quality time with friends and family.
Sara, Dental Assistant
Sara has 26 years of dentistry experience, and she’s excited to come to work every day because she loves being a part of such an excellent team. She attended Cuyamaca Community College in San Diego and also has certifications in dental X-rays, CPR, and SCUBA diving (which she doesn’t really need to use at the dental office!) She is the mother of 3 energetic boys and likes to stay active by running, working out, and biking.
Macayla Smith, Receptionist
Since joining our practice in 2021, Macayla has thoroughly enjoyed taking care of each patient and ensuring they are informed on both their treatment and the associated cost throughout each visit. However, her favorite part of her job is her amazing co-workers – the family environment makes work fun! She completed her studies at Jackson College and has more than three years of experience in the dental field. Away from the office, you’ll most likely find her spending time with friends and family, reading, and singing.
Nicolle LaBelle, Front Desk
A Michigan native, it was only natural for Nicolle to attend Eastern Michigan for a few years. She joined our team and the world of dentistry in 2021. So far, her favorite part of her job has been learning new things each and every day. During her time off, she loves visiting her parents up in Fenton, traveling to breweries, and doing just about anything outside. Here’s something you may not know about her: she takes tap classes on Wednesday nights!
