Jasmine
Assistant
Hi, my name is Jasmine. I graduated from Tunxis community college in May of 2024, and became Dr. Gagne's assistant. I love assisting Dr. Gagné because he teaches me so many new things. It makes me happy seeing the patients reactions
once they finally love their smile again. Another thing I love to see, is how Dr. Gagné can take a patient from hating the dentist, to actually enjoying it. I enjoy sitting by the fire with my younger siblings and family. I also
love watching the sunset, especially on the beach.
Tracy
Hygienist
Tracy started her career as a dental assistant and continued in the field for over four years. She then realized that Dental Hygiene was the next perfect step for her. Tracy enrolled into and graduated from Fones School of Dental Hygiene
in 1993. Feeling that kind of conversation, friendliness, and trust along with simple education of dental health goes a long way in building a respectful and enjoyable dental experience for everyone. During her down time, you will
find Tracy, along with her husband Scott, heading to warmer weather on a cruise ship or airplane during the winter. In the summer she will vacation, visit and spend time with valued family and friends, and play with her Cavapoo, Freya.
Summer months will bring her to the golf course as frequently as possible. Country music is her favorite as well as Broadway and local theater. Tracy does volunteer work with her town of Oxford's fire department as well as fundraising
support of Seymour Pink- a non-profit organization that fights against breast cancer.
Dr. Gagné, a member of the American Dental Association and the Academy of Laser Dentistry, is committed to providing his patients with comprehensive dental care.
