Meet the Hygienist: Carson — “The Hummin’ Hygienist”
At Ivory Family Dentistry in Spearfish, SD, we’re proud to have a dental team that not only provides exceptional care, but brings genuine warmth, personality, and joy into every patient interaction. Today, we’re excited to spotlight the newest member of our hygiene team: Carson, affectionately known as “The Hummin’ Hygienist.”
A Hygienist Who Brings Joy to Every Visit
Patients often hear Carson quietly humming or singing throughout the day — a habit that quickly earned her a nickname that fits perfectly. Her upbeat energy fills the office, and her ability to find humor in everyday moments helps put patients at ease from the moment they sit in the chair.
Life Outside the Office
When she’s not caring for patients, Carson loves spending time with her husband and baby. She jokes that one of her favorite hobbies is “finding new ways to annoy her husband,” but it’s clear that family is at the heart of everything she does.
This summer, the two of them even built a glass dome together — an adventure she describes as “not fun, but fun.” It’s the perfect snapshot of her personality: joyful, committed, and always ready to laugh.
Why Carson Loves Ivory Family Dentistry
Carson says the best part of working at Ivory is the culture of acceptance and support.
“I feel accepted for who I am, while also getting the support and tools I need to keep growing.”
At Ivory Family Dentistry, we believe in continuous education, whole-body dentistry, and empowering our team to provide informed, preventive care. Carson fits seamlessly into that mission, and we’re grateful to have her on the team.
Carson’s Favorite Quote
“Everything happens for a reason.”
It’s a simple reminder that reflects her positivity and perspective — qualities we’re proud to have shaping our hygiene department.
