Meet The Team

Stephanie brings more than 30 years of experience in dentistry to Bend Prosthodontics, including the last 10 years dedicated to managing specialty practices. Her career has spanned every facet of the dental office—from clinical assisting to leading teams and helping launch new dental practices—giving her a comprehensive understanding of both patient care and practice operations. There is very little in a dental practice she hasn’t seen or solved. Stephanie believes exceptional customer service is just as important as exceptional clinical outcomes and is committed to creating a seamless, welcoming experience for every patient who walks through the doors.

​

Stephanie began vacationing in Central Oregon more than 20 years ago and always knew this is where she and her family would one day call home. They moved here five years ago and fully embraced the high desert lifestyle. She especially appreciates the long summer season, taking full advantage of hiking, golf, and live music—outdoor concerts being one of her favorite ways to spend an evening.

​

Outside the office, Stephanie has a passion for discovering new culinary experiences—whether trying a new restaurant or crafting a new recipe at home for her family. She also enjoys setting ambitious fitness goals with her friends and recently completed her first mountain summit and half marathon. Her favorite training partner is Ollie, her 4-year-old chocolate lab. When it’s time to recharge, you will find her anyplace with palm trees and an ocean view enjoying sunrises and sunsets. 

Introducing Brittany, a dedicated dental assistant with a passion for spreading smiles both in and out of the dental office. Graduating from COCC in 2015, Brittany brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her role, ensuring every patient receives top-notch care.

​

Beyond her dental career, Brittany is also the proud owner of a country line and swing dance instructing business. Her love for dance shines through as she shares her talents and enthusiasm with her students, creating a vibrant and supportive community.

​

Known for her big heart and positive energy, Brittany is always putting others first. Whether it's brightening someone's day with a warm smile or going the extra mile to ensure patient comfort, Brittany's caring nature leaves a lasting impression.

​

When she’s not in the office or teaching dance, you can find Brittany practicing her archery skills or just soaking up sweet moments at home with her husband, Jordan, their newborn son, Warner, and their beloved dogs, Opie and Hawken. With her infectious positivity and zest for life, Brittany embraces this beautiful new season of motherhood while continuing to embody the perfect balance of professionalism and passion in everything she does.

Morgan is a central Oregon native, born in Prineville, OR but grew up here in Bend! She graduated from the COCC Dental Assisting Program in 2019 and holds both her CDA and EFDA certifications. She serves as both a skilled chairside dental assistant and our Clinical Operations Manager, combining hands-on clinical excellence with strong leadership.

​

In this leadership position, Morgan oversees clinical workflows, coordinates complex lab cases, ensures all intricate components arrive accurately and on time, and manages team members to keep the office running smoothly. Known for her calm, compassionate approach, she is committed to creating a comfortable experience for every patient while supporting exceptional clinical outcomes.

​

Outside the office, Morgan enjoys spending time with her husband, Robert and their dogs- Ellie, a 4-year-old Australian Shepard and Lottie, a 1.5-year-old corgi. She also loves traveling and exploring new places whenever she can while trying out all the different foods in every culture. Greece was her favorite place so far. You'll typically find Morgan drinking a coffee and reading a book at home with her 10 chickens whom she has named and all have their own personality!

 

"My favorite part of being a dental assistant is being able to create relationships with every patient and make them feel seen, heard and comfortable in a place that can be very scary for some. When you see patients continuously over the course of a year, you really get to know them and their loved ones. It's a special thing to be able to make that connection with patients.

As Patient Concierge at Bend Prosthodontics, Stacy brings a thoughtful balance of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care to every patient interaction. With five years of dental experience and a background in both real estate and law enforcement, she offers a calm, solution-focused presence that helps patients feel confident and supported from their very first call.

​

Stacy understands that prosthodontic treatment is deeply personal. She is passionate about ensuring each patient feels welcomed, informed, and truly cared for throughout their journey. Her attention to detail, strong communication skills, and natural ability to connect with people reflect the elevated standard of care that defines Bend Prosthodontics.

​

Originally from Wisconsin, Stacy spent 16 years in Arizona before choosing Bend for its natural beauty and quality of life. She especially loves the changing seasons (fall is her favorite!) and feels most at peace near the water, whether it’s a river, lake, ocean, or the Oregon coast. Stacy is also learning to play golf and enjoys visiting local courses and the driving range with her husband.

​

At home, Stacy and her husband have created a space they consider their sanctuary, filled with gaming sessions, streaming their favorite shows, and plenty of laughter. Their family also includes three beloved cats - Sage, Onyx, and Gee who keep life entertaining and complete. Proud of her Italian heritage, she carries on family traditions in the kitchen- a craft passed down from her mother and grandmothers, even making homemade pasta and fresh mozzarella using her husbands’ recipes!  

​

The next time you’re in the office, don’t be surprised if you’re greeted with her signature warmth; and feel free to ask her about her unexpected guilty pleasure: BINGO!
