Strong – This May, staff at Strong Area Health & Dental Center are happy to welcome Lauren Enright, Dental Hygienist, to the team. Lauren earned her Associate’s degree in Dental Hygiene from the University of Maine, and is currently working to complete her Bachelor’s degree. Lauren draws from a solid background in Dental Clinic work, including as an Administrative Aide and Dental Assistant.

Lauren shares, "I am delighted to be joining such a kindhearted and down-to-earth community – one where I can provide dental hygiene care to patients of all ages. I am especially passionate about teaching children good oral health practices that will provide them with a lifetime of smiles. I look forward to meeting and developing lasting relationships with the patients of the greater Strong area!"
