Our Dental Team

Kaitlin was born and raised in Vernon. She moved across the country to complete her dental hygiene education at the Toronto College of Dental Hygiene and Auxiliaries where she graduated in 2011.

After working in Edmonton, her love of the Okanagan and strong family ties here in Vernon drew her back – bringing her (now) husband with her.

One of Kaitlin’s favourite parts of her job is establishing great relationships with her patients, while helping them achieve their oral health goals

In her spare time, Kaitlin can be found embracing the chaos of motherhood as she chases after her two young kids. Some of her other loves include thrifting, exploring the outdoors, and anything Disney.

With eleven years of experience in dental hygiene, I’m passionate about helping patients achieve healthy, confident smiles. I specialize in providing gentle yet thorough cleanings, educating patients on oral health, and creating a comfortable and welcoming environment. My goal is to ensure every patient feels cared for and informed about maintaining their dental health. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, and outdoor activities like camping, hiking and paddleboarding.

With over 25 years of experience as a Certified Dental Assistant, Amber has built a strong foundation in patient care since completing training in Alberta in 1998. Passionate about connecting with patients, she enjoys learning about their life stories and finds value in uncovering personal history during conversations.

When not assisting patients, Amber calls the beautiful Okanagan home, where she loves spending time working in the garden, paddleboarding, and cycling. An avid cat lover, Amber also enjoys the company of her family and friends during downtime.
