Abagail
Certified Dental Assistant/EFDA
Dentistry has always been an interest of mine and is now becoming my passion. I enjoy enabling others to become confident in themselves as a result of improving their oral health. I am happy to begin my dental career in the environment that Day Oral Health provides. I am excited to oversee the sterilization department to ensure our clinical team receives the proper sterilized instruments in order to provide our patients with optimal dental care.
Abagail graduated from Ivy Tech Community College of Anderson in 2023 with an Associates of Applied Science and a Technical Certificate in Dental Assisting, which included over 300 hours of externship experience.
Abagail recently moved to the Greater Lafayette area in order to be closer to her boyfriend, who is a current Boilermaker. Abagail enjoys spending time with her cat, Fitz, along with traveling home to see her family.
Heather
Dental Hygienist
I love being a member of a team that shares the same passion as me – taking care of our patients in the most efficient and flawless way, and never compromising the care we provide to our patients through the precise work we do. I enjoy working one-on-one alongside my patients, building a relationship rooted in trust, and seeing the results of collaboratively working together towards a common goal – optimal oral health. While the technique utilized to provide hygiene therapy is similar for each visit, the experience is as unique as each of our fabulous patients.
Heather graduated from Greenville Technical College in Greenville, South Carolina with an Associates of Applied Science, a Technical Certification in Dental Hygiene, and her Dental Hygienist License. Upon graduation and receiving her license, Heather entered the dental industry as a dental hygienist and served in that capacity for 5 years. After a 5-year period living abroad in Hamburg, Germany (a time filled with plenty of European travel), Heather returned to the Unites States and to dentistry where she worked in the orthodontic sector overseeing complex treatment plans that involved meticulous coordination and oversight. Eventually, Heather moved to the Lafayette and dove back into her dental passion by joining the team at Day Oral Health as a Licensed Dental Hygienist.
Heather and her husband, Michael, have been married over 12 years. Their first ‘child’ is a 13-year-old black lab mix named Bailey. Heather and Michael also have two wonderful daughters named Mieke and Priya. Heather loves cooking in the kitchen with Mieke (and one day Priya, when she is old enough) and being outside spending quality time with her family.

Paula
Administrative Support
I enjoy working one-to-one with patients and building relationships with each person. It is fulfilling to be part of Day Oral Health. We are a team, trusting and supporting each other, and working together to provide the best patient care possible.
Paula holds an associate’s degree in dental hygiene from the Indiana University School of Dentistry. She started working in the field, and with us, in 1983. As a hygienist, Paula provides patients with a range of preventive care, including preventive maintenance visits. She also obtains diagnostic records (such as photographs, transillumination, probing depths and x-rays), provides oral hygiene education and nutritional counseling, and enables patients to make healthy decisions through discussion about treatment options.
Paula and her husband George have been married nearly 30 years. Their son Sam lives and works in Chicago. A Frankfort native, Paula enjoys visiting her parents and sisters who still live there. She and George love riding their bikes and enjoy baseball, especially Cubs baseball. Paula also likes spending time with loved ones and taking photos of family events.
