Kaitlyn Machado R.D.H., B.S., M.Ed., F.A.D.H.A.

Since childhood, Kate has always wanted to be a dental hygienist. Kate is a Bristol Community College Dental Hygiene 2017 graduate, who immersed herself quickly into the profession. She was involved in her state and local associations for many of the early years in her career. Kate is also one of the inaugural Fellows of the American Dental Hygienists’ Association. Not only is she a clinical dental hygienist, but an educator at her local dental hygiene school since 2019 and an inaugural writer and CE creator for a digital dental hygiene platform. Little did she know dental hygiene would take her out of her shell and gain so confidence in herself and her abilities. Kate promotes exceptional patient care using the latest evidence-based research for all patients based on their needs and customizes all recommendations.
