Patricia- "I came to Dr. Mehan's office 27 years ago as a student from NHTI. After graduation I started working full-time as a certified dental assistant. My primary role in the office is the ordering of supplies for the clinical area. It has been pure pleasure helping create smiles on all, from young to the adults. The 'thank you's' are the great reward. Our office helped establish a training program at NHTI to qualify CDA's to be orthodontic assistants in the state of New Hampshire. My training and experience led me to become an instructor in that program for 10 years. It has all been part of a very rewarding career in an office where we care about each other as well as the patients."
