JoAnne started her career as a dental hygienist in 1993. She has worked in both general and periodontal practices which has given her a diverse experience. She returned to her Alma Mater, Hudson Valley Community College, to get certified in local anesthesia and nitrous oxide to provide her patients with the utmost comfort.

Patricia, a 2020 graduate from SUNY Orange, joined the Mason Dental team in March of 2021. As a Registered Dental Hygienist, Patricia spends time with patients to understand their health, oral hygiene habits, and any dental concerns and, with that, presents specific treatment plans to meet their individual needs. In her downtime, she enjoys spending the weekends at the mountains, camping with her boyfriend, Andrew, and spending time with friends & family.
Paxton

Paxton attended and graduated from Hudson Valley Community College in 2017 and Mount Ida College in 2018 ultimately receiving her degree in Dental Hygiene and concentration in Education. She joined the Mason Dental team as a Registered Dental Hygienist in May 2022. Paxton feels her role as a dental hygienist not only consists of clinical skills but also the ability to educate patients about their oral health, systemic links to overall health, how to stabilize, and how to maintain. She feels education is a huge component to dental hygiene and is always focused on explaining the "why" to patients in her chair. When not in the office, she enjoys spending time with friends and family, reading, hiking, biking, and kayaking.
