Becky
Registered Dental Assistant
As a registered dental assistant, I help with a variety of chairside procedures, including endodontic and prosthetic treatments, crowns, oral surgery, and maintaining current patient charts. I have been working in the dental field since 1994, and I love it! My favorite parts of my job are assisting with crown procedures and making temporary crowns. The patients really appreciate the efforts we give for their health and comfort, and that makes my day.
After work, I enjoy spending quality time with my spouse.
Wendy
Registered Dental Hygienist
Hello, I am a registered dental hygienist for our practice, and I love making personal connections to our patients. It's so nice when I see a patient consistently and see their condition improving, as well as catching up on the happenings since their last appointment. I began work as a dental assistant in 1985, and as a dental hygienist in 1990. It is satisfying when the teeth are clean at the end of the appointment, and the patients love the smooth feeling of their teeth!
After work, I get to come home to my husband and two daughters.
Liz
Registered Dental Hygienist
I am a native of San Francisco. My interest in dental hygiene began when I was in High School. I had a part-time job in a dental office. The dentist trained me to be a chairside dental assistant and encouraged me to become a dental hygienist. In 1982, I graduated from UCSF with a Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene. As a hygienist, my goals are to partner with my patients to maintain their oral health and to provide them with a positive dental visit.
On my days off, I enjoy working out at the gym or taking a yoga class. My other interests are growing cymbidium orchids, flower arranging, scrapbook/card making, and baking.
Sandra
Financial and Insurance Coordinator
Hello, and welcome to our practice! I am our financial and insurance coordinator as well as a registered dental assistant. I help our patients make the most from their dental insurance, and help them discover a financial plan that meets their needs and fits within their budget. My favorite part of working here is the personal relationships that I developed with our patients, and working with such a fun and wonderful team! The doctors are very optimistic and provide tons of excitement to the office. They truly value the importance of oral health, and enjoy helping our patients reach their dental goals.
At home, I am married and have a baby daughter named Madelynn.
Nina
Registered Dental Hygienist
I have been in the dental field since 1975, and love being a registered dental hygienist in our practice. I clean teeth, help look for and treat gum disease, take X-rays, and administer local anesthesia and nitrous oxide sedation. The favorite part of my job is getting to know the people I treat, and helping them achieve optimum oral health. Dr. McFaul has genuine enthusiasm and concern for his patients. He always strives to be his best in all areas, and that is contagious!
In my spare time, I love traveling to my homeland, Italia, and I love raising my beautiful daughter, Sofia.

Ruth
Dental Assistant
I am proud to be a dental assistant for such a wonderful group of doctors. I help our practice by setting up for procedures, taking X-rays, seating patients, assisting doctors with all procedures, and making sure every patient is comfortable. I began working in our office in 1981, and I love being part of our team! The best part of my job is seeing the patient smiling when they leave our office. Dr. McFaul is a wonderful doctor, and he takes the time to answer all our patients’ questions, making sure they are comfortable with the procedures.
I’m married with four girls and a dog. Our favorite sport is basketball, and we love playing on the Wii!
Chrystal
Registered Dental Hygienist
I am one of our dental hygienists, so I am responsible for maintaining the health and beauty of our patients’ smiles through regular cleanings and education about effective home care. I love it when I can help somebody reach their goal of oral health. When a patient is happy about having a healthy mouth for life and motivated to have healthy daily oral habits, I am ecstatic! I love working with my doctors because they strive for excellence with each patient. It makes me feel great knowing they are always looking out for our patients’ best interests.
For the last three years my passion has been rock climbing, and I even climbed two big walls in Yosemite. My most recent change in my life is my new son, and I love being a mom.
