Marci — Registered Dental Hygienist

Hi I’m Marci, I grew up in New Galilee and graduated from Beaver Falls High School. I attended the dental assistant program at Median School of Allied Health Careers in Pittsburgh. I worked as a Dental Assistant for several years then decided to continue my education in dentistry. I graduated from Youngstown State University’s dental hygiene program and have been enjoying my career as a dental hygienist. I really enjoy getting to know each of my patients, from the young in age to the young at heart. My goal is to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable while education them about the importance of good oral hygiene.

My husband and I live in Darlington Twp. and we have 2 children, one son who graduated from Clarion and is now working as an accountant, and our daughter who is attending Slipper Rock studying Safety Management.

Dana — Registered EFDA

Hi my name is Dana, I’m from Hopewell, PA where I live with my husband Jason. I graduated from Median School of Allied Health Careers in 1999 with my certificate in Dental Assisting with Expanded Functions. I value providing our patients with excellent, supporting care during their visit with us. I always hope to educate each individual so they are able to maintain good dental care habits.

In my spare time I enjoy boating & fishing with my husband, our pets and going to craft & wine shows. I am extremely crafty & enjoy helping around the office in whatever way I can.

Natalie — Registered Dental Hygienist

Hi my name is Natalie & I joined my dental family approximately in July, 2017. Here at Covatto Family Dentistry we treat each patient as a family member. I have been a hygienist for almost 32 years and love the relationship and rapport I have with each one of my patients.

On my days off I enjoy my church, being with my family and friends

Emily — Dental Hygienist

Hi, I’m Emily! I am a graduate from West Liberty University, where I received my bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene. I recently joined Covatto Family Dentistry. Just like where I am from, a very close small town, this is home where we all work together to give each patient the best care possible. Being a dental hygienist gives me a chance to change lives for the better. I'm given an opportunity to treat people with empathy and caring in order to build a foundation of trust. I can help hesitant patients become more relaxed, and educate them on obtaining the best optimum oral care.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, fiancé, friends and pets. I love the outdoors- fishing, kayaking, water skiing, hiking and swimming is how we spend our warm sunny days! My Bernese Mountain Dog, Tucker, is my buddy. Every day is a good day!! :)

Tiffany — Patient/Insurance Coordinator

I’m Tiffany, I’m originally from Beaver PA where I graduated from Beaver High School in 2008. I moved back to Beaver County in October 2014 after traveling around the country with my husband who served Active Duty with the United States Army for 10 years. I fell in love with the dental field when I completed the American Red Cross Dental Assistant training program at Fort Campbell Kentucky.

I am a loving mother of two and I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.

Christine — Treatment Coordinator

Hello, I'm Christine! I have worked in the dental field for over 17 years making sure patients receive a warm caring experience whether it’s clinical or with their financial needs and treatment concerns. I enjoy getting to know patients and helping to make a beautiful smile fit into their budget. I am always glad to discuss fees with our patients before treatment begins. I inform our patients that flexible financing with monthly installments and no interest charges can be arranged. I am dedicated to helping each patient who visits us have a great experience!

At home, I love working out, eating healthy and spending time with my husband Kip and children Garrett, Kohlton, Helena and Luke.
