Dr. Turke opened TADA Dental with the vision to create a new experience in dentistry. With same day dental restoration, your valuable time isn't wasted on multiple visits & the creation of temporary crowns. We create a relaxed environment with a team selected due to their professional competency & desire to help others in a stress-free no-pressure manner. This is dentistry your way!
I began my career as a Periodontist Assistant but realized that I wanted to be more hands on like the doctor. So I quickly moved into Orthodontics so I could perform the task myself. I really like the fast pace atmosphere and stayed in this field for 20 years. After spending so much time in one field, I decided it was time for a little change and made the move to work the administrative side of it. I love my new career! It’s fun, challenging and rewarding.
I am a Dental Hygienist today thanks to the kindness of my own childhood Dental Hygienist. Due to an illness my teeth did not form properly, so I spent a lot of time in a dental chair. My Dental Hygienist focused on what I was doing well and helped me improve on other areas. She inspired me to be a positive influence on others. I enjoy helping my patients improve on their dental health.
My husband and I have two daughters, a son-in-law and a grandson. I love spending time with my grandson ♥
I began my training at a vocational school in Kingston, New York. Before I was able to graduate my family moved to Florida, but I always had an affinity for the dental arts and am proud to have pursued it as a dental assistant. After I had my first daughter, I stayed home for five years. When I went back to the dental field I went to administrative services and insurance specialist.
In my free time I enjoy nature hikes, my three rescue cats and walking on the beach. Our family's annual summer trips to Kingston, Ontario. Let's me get in touch with nature and really relax.
I have always wanted to work in the medical field. As a good listener and all around people person I love to help others. At TADA Dental we pride ourselves on having a relaxed, professional and fun environment to make sure all of our patients have an anxiety free visit and a great outcome!
