Denise Burke

I am a long-timer dental assistant - over 30 years. I have been DANB certified in the past and was one of the first to be licensed in Massachusetts. I have a boatload of experience along with advanced knowledge of dental software packages. I have worked in oral surgery, general dentistry, endodontics, and cosmetic dentistry. I am hard working, pleasant, and patient centric.
