Meet Your Friendly Dental Team – Asheville, NC

One Big Happy Family of Hardworking Professionals

If there’s one thing you can count on when visiting Parkview Dental, it’s a knowledgeable, long-term team you’ll love getting to know during your routine appointments. They simply love what they do here at the office; two of our hygienists are even former dental hygiene instructors! Below, you can get to know them and what they do at the office through their detailed bios ahead of your next appointment!

Adriane, Registered Dental Hygienist

Adriane has been with Parkview Dental for 4 years and has been practicing Hygiene for 19 years, serving 6 of those years as a dental hygiene instructor in FL and NC. She is most passionate about making patients feel comfortable, educating them about the physiology of disease, and providing thorough, gentle cleanings. We consider her as such a compassionate educator, and she continues to love what she does. This is very evident through feedback from our patients!

Outside of work and being a parent, she is an avid tennis player, loves to read non-fiction, and dabbles in mountain biking and swimming laps.

“I believe my skills shine the most when patients need more-involved cleanings, due to my compassion for their situation, my attention to detail, and years of experience.”

Erin, Registered Dental Hygienist

Erin has been a part of our Hygiene team for 6 years, but she has been practicing Hygiene for a total of 12 years so far. Her personality truly brightens our office and patients love her because she is so caring, thorough, and compassionate. She and her husband Matt have a precious son named Pierce and a cute little dog named Pippa. When she’s not working, Erin loves traveling and shopping. She and her family love their trips to Disney.

“I love making dental visits a positive experience for patients, showing them you don’t have to be scared to come to the dentist.”

Since graduating more than four years ago, she has become certified by the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) and continues to maintain that certification every year.
