Meet the Staff


Mariana
I have been working as a dedicated and enthusiastic dental hygienist for eight years. As a hygienist on the team I love Dr. Newton's drive to keep searching for the most effective, efficient and innovative techniques and technology to better achieve our goals of great smiles. Coming to the office is enjoyable and rewarding when we constantly strive for excellence. Outside of the dental realm I am a proud mother of two with one more on the way. I love spending time with my family. I take pleasure being outdoors and gardening. When I get a chance I enjoy reading mystery novels and biographies.

Jennifer
I am the newest hygienist on Team Newton and have a unique perspective on dentistry since my husband is a dentist. Dr. Newton treated my boys, so my familiarity with our team extends beyond the time when I joined our staff. My empathy and experience allows me to help each and every patient enjoy their orthodontic experience. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and baking award-winning cookies, pies, and other mouth-watering delicacies!

Lina
I am our financial coordinator and our senior administrative manager. I ensure that financial details are dealt with in a professional manner and am responsible for finalizing payment plans, reviewing contract details, and efficiently tracking accounts. In addition to this, I am also responsible for all billing, receipt generation, and assisting with insurance forms. I am your contact within the office and can answer any questions you may have regarding the business aspect of orthodontic treatment. I like to spend my leisure time with my family, particularly with my grandchildren.

Lisa
I'm a CDA II on Dr. Newton's team. Along with my team members, I share the responsibilities of maintaining efficiency, organization, lab work, and sterilization on a daily basis. I enjoy the energy and being part of a busy, exciting office. As an added bonus I get the pleasure of working with many memorable patients. Beyond my regular duties in the office it is safe to say that I am the team artist and also will be the first to volunteer to feed our office pets or try to save an escaped fish from our big tank. I value close family connections and true friends, along with a passion for really good chocolate.

Lynne
I have been a member of the Newton team as a dental hygienist for the past ten years. Helping clients feel more confident about themselves and their smiles makes the practice of orthodontics, particularly in this skilled, team-based practice, a very enjoyable and fulfilling profession. Now that my family is grown, I enjoy the adventure of traveling in my spare time.

Mary
I am a dental hygienist on Dr. Newton’s team and have been enjoying working with patients for over ten years. I am often heard singing tunes while I work with patients. My extended family keeps me busy at home, but I find time to enjoy reading and writing poetry in my spare time. Recently, I’ve decided to try out amateur stand-up comedy as a personal challenge.

Andrea
I am the clinical director and over the last seven years I have perfected what makes Dr. Newton's clinic run smoothly and efficiently. A busy office is not easy to run well but I am an ambitious, detailed oriented person. My perseverance helps us stay on schedule. I continue to try to learn and I was able to achieve my Level II Dental Assisting certification while working full time and also being mom for my two children. My strong faith in God keeps me strong and grounded. It is fair to say that I am the spiritual cornerstone for our team. Out of the office I enjoy reading, spending time with family and friends, and worship.

Karen
First impressions convey a welcoming atmosphere, and meeting at our front desk will be just that. I am our office administrator and I'm here to accommodate your scheduling needs and direct any questions that you may have. I enjoy day-to-day interaction with our patients and love seeing the beautiful results of our patients' orthodontic treatment. I have spent many years in the dental profession but just recently started my own orthodontic treatment. Outside the office, I like spending most of my time at social gatherings with family and friends. I look forward to meeting you and booking your initial consultation appointment.

Lori
Dentistry has been my life for many years, receiving my Level II Dental Assisting Certification in 2002 and my certification as a dental treatment coordinator in 2006. I joined Dr. Newton's team in May, 2009. My role is exciting as I am able to share my enthusiasm towards changing smiles and meet new people. I love explaining new techniques and technologies and help to educate our patients about how we create excellent smiles. I am also currently a patient using the Damon Clear™ system. Dr. Newton is an amazing orthodontist with a great sense of humor and our team is awesome. I truly enjoy being at work! As treatment coordinator, I will introduce you to orthodontics and explain your treatment options. My goal is to get you as excited about orthodontics as I am! At home I enjoy organizing functions and getting together with friends and family. I really love supporting my son's interest in karate in my spare time.

Annmarie
I may seem quiet at first, but my highest priority is making sure you and your family always feel welcome in our office. My favourite part of my job is giving tours for new patients, and taking the time to answer any questions they may have. I love chatting with families about their interests and their goals for treatments so that we can be sure to meet their needs and exceed their expectations! After work, my kids give me joy and keep me busy. I always look forward to holiday time with my family.

Ketty
Our practice is an orthodontic heaven, and a great place to work! I enjoy every component of my job, from sterilizing instruments to assisting with a laser procedure. The best part, of course, is meeting new people that come in! I speak Spanish and French along with English, so I am able to communicate with a variety of our patients. I enjoy using my sense of humour to help bring smiles and sunshine to everyone's day. Outside the office, my family keeps me young at heart, and I enjoy being active in my community of faith.

Dr. Kimos has further expertise in the treatment of facial pain and temporomandibular disorders.
