Heather
Registered Dental Hygienist
I am a Dental Hygienist at Dr. Kiryakos’ office. I graduated from Harcum College, outside of Philadelphia, in 1996. I moved to California in 1998, and have been a hygienist here ever since. I love working with our patients dealing from 3 year olds that are nervous about their first visit, to patients with advanced periodontal disease. I try to keep pace with what is new in the field of science and technology regarding dental health and dental diseases. I evaluate patient progress every visit with radiographs and periodontal screening. I instruct patients of proper oral health maintenance and medical factors that can influence their periodontal condition. I am very social and friendly. Our office works very well as a team, and I thoroughly enjoy being a part of it. I also look forward to meeting new patients from all different backgrounds.
