Wendy

Dental Assistant

I began my dental journey in 1995 in Orthodontics before transitioning to General Dentistry in 2000 right here in this office and I have been here ever since. My role has changed over the years, I now assist Dr. Steed in patient care when needed, order the clinical supplies and take care of multiple other tasks as well. I really enjoy the variety each day brings. I love connecting with patients and I especially feel very fortunate to have made some long-lasting friendships that I truly treasure.

I am married and have two wonderful adult daughters and am caring for my wonderful great nephew, which is so completely different from raising girls! I now also have three grandsons ranging in age from 4 ½ months old to almost 5 years old, they completely steal my heart with their love and smiles! In my free time, not that I have much of that, I enjoy being with my family and friends, camping, fishing, scrapbooking, ice skating, sledding and reading!

Andrea

Dental Assistant

I am Dr. Steed's assistant. We have been working together for over a decade! I love being a dental assistant. It is my goal to help each patient be as comfortable as possible during their visits.

When I’m not assisting, I enjoy spending time with my son and family.

Kim

Business Assistant

As one of the voices that will welcome you to our office, I’m here to help with whatever is needed. Most of my time is spent taking care of the day-to-day activities of the business. I enjoy the time spent with our patients, and working closely with a great team!

I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart for 42 years. We have three grown children, six grandchildren, and two grand-dogs. I love spending time with family and friends, scrapbooking, snowmobiling, gardening, and going to the beach.

Nicole

Office Manager

Stepping into the office manager position in 2022 has been such a joy. Gaining even more experience within different departments of the office has really helped me facilitate the patient experience. My hope is to always provide great support and guidance to both my team and patients.

My husband and I are lucky to have three wonderful sons; Roman and our twins, Parker and Everett. They keep us moving, and we love playing outside and going for walks.

Debbi

Dental Hygienist

I’ve provided hygiene care for patients of all ages in this practice for more than 35 years. I especially love working with children, but I also enjoy the ongoing relationships that naturally develop over time between staff members and patients in a general practice. Many of our patients are either extended family of co-workers or friends of other existing patients. Our entire staff is absolutely phenomenal! From our doctor to every member of the team, we are all warm, welcoming, and dedicated to patient care.

I am married to my wonderful husband, Don, and we have one son, Tyler. My favorite forms of exercise have always been dancing and skiing, but when it comes time to relax, I love to travel. My hobbies include decorating, gardening, and baking.

Lauri

Dental Hygienist

I have been working as a part time Hygienist at Southern Maine Dental since 1999. I took a leave of absence in 2015 and moved to Germany with my family where I had so many life changing experiences!  I returned to our beloved home in Wells, Maine in 2019.

I have been a hygienist for over 30 years and many patients see me as a trusting friend, who values their health and overall wellbeing. I enjoy educating my patients, so they can take their health into their own hands and learn new habits to implement into daily routines. I am very thorough in patients’ periodontal health and provide services as seen necessary through radiographs, clinical examination and periodontal health measurements.

When not practicing Dental Hygiene, I enjoy my time with my high school sweetheart of 33 years, our three children, (although two are adults and on their own), our 4yr old dog, Hugo and our adorable Grandson. I am the health proxy for my two aging parents. I love being active outdoors with running, walking, hiking, beach going, and gardening. During the winter, house projects, various crafts such as scrapbooking, wood working, and epoxy resin crafts fill my time.

Diane

Dental Hygienist

I am very fortunate to have had the experience and long term relationship with the same career for the past 30+ years. I have raised two wonderful kids with lots of challenges and adventures. Now that they are grown I enjoy my time off with walks on the beach and tending to my garden. I look forward to continuing to give my patients quality care until the next chapter begins.

Noelle

Business Assistant

As a Business Assistant, I have developed a keen eye for detail and a strong ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment. My 15+ years of experience in customer service coupled with my love of a challenge will help me maintain the best experience for the patients and consistently meet their needs. I look forward to many years with such a great group in a wonderful dental practice.

I am a mom of two great kids and I have a very hard-working husband. When we have time, we love to go skiing and hiking. Our goal is to acquire a camp where we can spend our weekends outside and on the water. I enjoy communicating with everyone who is part of this dental community.
