Pike Creek Dental is more than a “Dental Office”, we truly want to enrich he community we are a part of and make our surroundings better! Here you will find news regarding our team, clients and more!
Welcome Back Dr. Green!
We would like to give a warm welcome back to Dr. Joanna Green. Dr. Joanna Green and Dr. Kyle Green welcomed their new little bundle of joy, Dalton in April. To say big sisters, Fiona and Stella are thrilled is an understatement. The Green’s have been enjoying the summer as a family of five. Their family could not be happier. Once maternity leave was over, Dr. Joanna Green hit the ground running by continuing to further her education.
In late July, Dr. Green attended a course on the ALF appliance. The ALF is an appliance for all ages of people which works in conjunction with myofunctional therapy to stimulate bone growth and help balance the craniofacial complex while improving the airway and its function during breathing and sleep. ALF helps kids and adults who suffer from crooked teeth, high palates, small dental arches, mouth breathing, sleep issues including upper airway resistance and snoring, enlarged tonsils and adenoids, headaches and TMJ issues.
Our Pike Creek Dental team is growing! We are happy to announce the addition of a few new team members, three dental assistants. Please welcome: Christina, Nicole, and Amanda.
Christina joined our team in late June as a dental assistant. Christina has been working in the dental field since 2009 as a dental assistant. When Christina is not at work, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, but most of all, her puppy, Oakley.
Nicole joined our team in the beginning of July as a dental assistant. Nicole has worked in the dental field for many years. Nicole’s main goal is to make every patient feel comfortable and well cared for during every visit. When Nicole is not at work, she enjoys spending time with her children, gardening, and traveling to the beach.
Amanda joined our team in late June as a dental assistant. Amanda will be splitting her time between Pike Creek Dental as an assistant, and Pain and Sleep Therapy Center, as a Sleep Tech. Amanda has worked in the health field for many years. Amanda was born and raised in Kennett where she resides with her two children. When Amanda is not at work, she enjoys spending time on the Sassafras with her children.

Donations
Pike Creek Dental continually strives to give back to our community. This past holiday season, employees made gift boxes full of dental items and age appropriate toys for Samaritan’s Purse, an organization that sends boxes of toys to children in need overseas. We also made numerous whitening baskets for local charities and local school events. Dental hygiene bags to local homeless shelters, Independence School, Skyline Elementary, St. Anthony of Padua Grade School, MS Society, Kay’s Kamp are just a few of the many charities we have donated to in the last few months.
