Karin, Assistant

Welcome! My name is Karin and I have been working with Dr. Joseph Hedstrom since April 2008. I enjoy working as a dental assistant, and helping our patients achieve the healthy, beautiful smiles they deserve. I received my dental assisting certificate from NH Technical Institute in 1987. I began dental assisting in 1985 and have had work experiences in various dental practices including pediatric, orthodontic, oral surgery, periodontic, cosmetic, and general. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and my dog. I enjoy the outdoors, hiking, biking, and running. My interests also include martial arts, physical fitness, softball, and taking day trips.

Christine, Assistant 

Hello my name is Christine. I graduated from NHTI in Concord, New Hampshire in 2001. I began working for Dr. Hedstrom in 2004. I was here for almost three years when an opportunity arose for me to work in an independent dental lab.  I worked in the outside lab for three years, and I gained additional dental knowledge and more experience.  I realized, however, that I missed chair side assisting, interacting with patients and an office setting.  When Dr. Joe offered me my dental assisting position again in 2010, I happily agreed.  I enjoy assisting and helping improve our patients’ smiles and overall dental health. When I am not at work I enjoy being outside, catching rays, playing volleyball, riding my mountain bike, running, and landscaping around my home.

Kristina, Hygienist

Hi, I'm Kristina. Being a dental hygienist is rewarding for me because I have the opportunity to meet so many new people and share my knowledge. It is important to me that patients feel comfortable and relaxed during each visit. My goal for each patient is to improve their oral health and ultimately help improve their overall physical health. I graduated from the dental hygiene program at the New Hampshire Technical Institute in 2007. I have experience working in both periodontal and general dental practices. When I'm away from the practice, I love walking my dog Lola and spending time with my friends and family. Some hobbies I enjoy are camping, reading, cooking, and watching the Bruins.

Chandini, Hygienist

Hi, my name is Chandni, and my ultimate goal is to keep you smiling. As a dental hygienist, I take pride in improving and enhancing oral health for every patient, while identifying their individual needs and addressing any dental concerns. I strive to provide a pleasant dental experience and the best quality care to all of my patients. My hard work and determination is representative in my education and background. I graduated from the University of California, Davis in 2005 and earned a bachelor's of science degree in psychology. I continued my education at the New Hampshire Technical Institute's dental hygiene program and graduated in 2010. On free time, I enjoy traveling, watching movies, and spending time with family and friends.
