Hello! I am Paige and I am enjoying my second of many years here at Back to the Basics! I have been in the Dental field for over 11 years and grew up helping my father who is a Dentist in Elizabethtown Kentucky. I guess you can say I am keeping the Dental field in the family! I am an Army brat, so we have been around the world finally settling here where I attended Clarksville High School. I really feel at home around our Army community. I received my undergraduate from APSU in Clarksville and my Resident Dental Hygienist degree from Remington College in Nashville. I am married to my super talented husband Joel and we have our hands full with three boys. I commute from the beautiful town of Dickson, TN where we spend most of our time outdoors in the country. I love my job and regardless of how small or extensive your procedures are, I want you to have a comfortable and enjoyable experience here with us.
