Tina
Registered Dental Hygienist
Tina has been shaping brighter smiles since 1996 and joined the Bryant Family Dentistry team in 2020. Trained at Roane State Community College, she performs numerous procedures, including thorough teeth cleanings, fluoride applications, x-rays, periodontal treatment, and oral cancer exams. Tina is also our OSHA safety officer, ensuring that our practice maintains the highest safety standards.
What Tina finds most rewarding is building connections. Whether it's comforting a nervous patient or sharing a laugh with the team, she cherishes every relationship she cultivates within our dental family. Her decision to pursue a career in dentistry was influenced by the exceptional care and experience she received from her childhood dentist, which instilled in her a desire to provide the same level of compassion and professionalism to others.
Away from the clinic, Tina is an avid reader and baker and loves beach vacations. An animal lover at heart, Tina has three furry companions at home. She believes in giving rescue dogs a second chance, and her favorite breeds are Shih Tzus and dachshunds.
Have you ever had an unpleasant interaction with another person? Well that doesn't happen here. At no point did I ever feel like anyone was anything but 100 percent invested in my comfort and well being. Not only that, but you can sense the skill and talent weilded by each and every professional in this practice. They all do their part flawlessly and effectively. Are you considering another dentist? Don't. Go here. They're amazing. Every single staff member is a kind, talented professional that just wants what's best for you. Still not convinced? Well you're an idiot. This team could do anything. I bet they could cure cancer, or put a satellite into orbit. Im pretty sure Dr. Jim has been to Mars. I'm honestly not sure why they even do dentistry, but hey I respect it. Someone has to be the best at it.
