Debbie
Office Manager
Hi, I’m Debbie!
I’m from Wisconsin and moved to California in 1983. I worked in banking for 10 years before entering the world of dentistry. I was one of Dr. Masek’s patients for several years when he offered me the position of receptionist in 1991.
I am very knowledgeable about dental procedures, insurance and financial arrangements. I am x-ray and CPR certified and do some chairside assisting. I was promoted to Office Manager in 2000 because of Dr. Masek’s confidence in my exceptional customer service skills to ensure that the office runs smoothly for the benefit of our dental friends. I am married with 2 sons and enjoy Chloe, my English Bulldog.
Laura
Registered Dental Hygienist
Hello, I’m Laura.
I have been providing excellent patient care along side Dr. Masek at Dental Expressions since 1999. I graduated in 1988 from Madison Area Technical College in Madison, WI. I started my career working in various offices until I decided to follow my heart and move west. I am married and have a wonderful teenage daughter. My work ethic and values reflect my mid-west roots.
I am Laser, Ozone and CPR certified, and through continuing education, I keep up with the latest periodontal procedures. These include Dental Ozone Therapy, HIPPA and OSHA standards, so I can provide you with the best periodontal care available. I look forward to helping you attain and maintain optimal dental health.

Registered Dental Assistant
Hi, I’m Danielle.
I have been part of the Dental Expressions dental family since 2013. I graduated from Dental Assisting School in 2006. I earned my RDA, with certification in X-rays, coronal polishing and CPR. Besides my duties as a Registered Dental Assistant, I am well versed in the areas of patient treatment coordination, sterilization, financial arrangements, dental insurance billing and CEREC CAD-CAM dentistry.
I am very patriotic, married and expecting my first baby! I hope my cats don’t get upset! I am excited to get to know you and help you meet your dental health goals!
Kristin
Registered Dental Assistant
Hi, I’m Kristin.
You might have seen me in Chapter 12 of Dr. Masek's book, "Highly Esthetic CEREC Solutions." Nearly 20 years later, my CEREC veneers are going strong and still look great!
I first joined the Dental Expressions Team in 1997. A few years later, I moved out of the area and had to leave. I just rejoined the Team in January 2021 and I am excited to be back "Home!"
I love dentistry and helping patients achieve their dental health goals. I will do everything I can to make your visits exceptional.
I currently hold my RDA and X-ray licenses. I am certified in Coronal Polish and CPR.
