Ana

Registered Dental Hygienist

I love seeing our patients' oral health improve and the confidence it gives each patient knowing they can make a difference in their oral health and overall health. I was a dental assistant from 2006-2008, then attended Cabrillo College and earned an AS in Dental Hygiene in 2010. Fore Dental Care offers thorough, gentle care from the moment a person calls on the phone to make an appointment to their continued visits to the office. Our office is clean and offers state-of-the-art technology and a sterilization center. It is my personal commitment to see that each patient's oral health improves and they understand the connection of oral health to overall health.

I am originally from Santa Cruz County and have lived in Nevada County for three months. I love it here! In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family camping, hiking, swimming, and working on the house and in the yard. I have three kids, a boy and two girls, and a Boston Terrier - all have tons of energy! I look forward to meeting you and I am excited for you to be a part of the Fore Dental Care family and experience amazing dental care.

Registered Dental Assistant (RDA)

There are many things I like about what I do at FDC. First, I’m grateful for the team I work with. Dr. Fore is very knowledgeable and constantly provides continuing education for staff to stay on the cutting edge. Dr. Fore’s high standard of care is so impressive, along with the unique fact she followed the footsteps of her father, a dentist in Grass Valley for the past 50+ years. Working at FDC for the last ten years, I’ve enjoyed building a great rapport with our patients. I’m committed to making my patients feel at home and comfortable. I also enjoy meeting new patients and making them feel the same way.

I was born and raised in Clarinda, Iowa. I graduated from Iowa Western Community College Dental Assisting Program in 1986 and became an RDA in California in 2008. My husband and I moved to Lake Wildwood in 1996 and raised our two daughters. In my free time, I enjoy boating with my husband and hiking with my daughters.

Tachele

Insurance Coordinator

What I like best about working at FDC is the opportunity to be part of an amazing team that works together to deliver the best care possible and goes the extra mile to see people smile! As a care coordinator, I am personally committed to making sure patients are well informed about their treatment options and that they leave our office after each visit feeling cared for and supported. I became interested in dentistry because I was born without my front lateral incisors. I now have a permanent bridge, but as a child, I was self-conscious and struggled with my confidence. I decided I wanted to help people restore the confidence that comes along with having a beautiful smile. I have worked for many dental offices over the years in both the front and back office, and I have experience in everything from front office reception to records and registration. In 2019, I earned my Associate of Science degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences from Sierra College.

I grew up in the Bay Area and have happily lived in Nevada County for over 30 years. I love spending time with family and friends, and I enjoy camping and spending time on the rivers with my husband and our three children.

I look forward to meeting you, and I can’t wait for you to experience the exceptional care provided by the staff in our office.
