Darleen has been a Dental Hygienist for 15 years and has been a Myofunctional Therapist for the last 4 years. She has a passion for helping people and sharing her knowledge. Since becoming a Hygienist, she has been able to witness the detrimental effects of poor oral function and can help figure out ways to help correct those troubles. She adores spending time with her husband, Brian, and their 5 children. They love the outdoors, going on side-by-side rides, camping, fishing, and staying in on rainy days doing puzzles and playing board games together.
