Meet the Team
The team at Trentini Orthodontics is special because we all share the same goals when it comes to our patients. Having a genuine concern for the well-being and comfort of our patients, a passion for providing excellent orthodontic treatment, and a commitment to service above and beyond that which is expected is our common focus.
Barrie — Treatment Coordinator
I am honored to be one of the first team members that patients meet in our office. It is my pleasure to introduce patients to Dr. Chris and get them started on the path to a great smile. I love being part of a team that focuses on making the patient experience positive and fun. It is rewarding to start and end each workday knowing that each patient has been treated with respect and kindness and has been given the highest attention to detail. Dr. Trentini’s integrity and expertise are second to none, and my respect for him makes my job a pleasure.
My husband, Brian, and I have adopted a very independent cat named Tom, and when I have free time, I enjoy traveling, reading, hiking, and working in the garden.
Hannah — Clinical Assistant and Receptionist
I have worked with Dr. Chris since I was 19 years old: my first and only real job! I assist him during patient appointments and am involved with all aspects of clinical operations. I love getting to know our patients and hearing about their interesting lives. Our staff truly enjoys working together; we’re really like a family. Dr. Chris is very passionate about what he does. He is easy to talk to and very patient when teaching us, and I have learned so much from him.
I love spending time with my husband, Carlos, and our daughter, Terah, and I always look forward to my time with a good book.
Mary — Clinical Assistant and Lab Technician
I can be found either assisting Dr. Trentini during patient appointments or in our lab, where I prepare models for fabrication of orthodontic appliances and make retainers. I studied to be a registered dental assistant at Tennessee Technology Center in Knoxville and am so happy to be a part of Dr. Trentini’s team! This office is like my home away from home! My favorite part of my job is getting to know our patients and seeing them smile!
I have been married for 16 years to my husband Brian. We have a son Taylor and a daughter Ashlynn. We also have two dogs, Lilo and Snuggles. When I’m not at work, I like spending time with family, working outside with plants, and going to Zumba classes.
Shana — Receptionist and Clinical Assistant
I wear many hats at Trentini Orthodontics! I work with Angela at the front desk, assist Dr. Trentini during patient appointments, and help the treatment coordinator with patients’ first appointments. Whatever it is, I want to make those who visit our office to feel comfortable and well cared for. I attended GTCC for dental assisting school, but I think the nine years I previously spent working at a pediatric dental office has given me the best training! I love working with kids and I know just how to make them smile!
I am married to Alex and we have two children, Olivia and Lucas, and three dogs, one cat, and six goldfish. In my free time, I enjoy walking, reading, and playing with my children.
Natalie — Clinical Assistant
I am responsible for performing clinical tasks that are directly related to patient care. I really enjoy watching our patients’ smiles transform! It is truly amazing to see their confidence grow as their smiles improve! Dr. Chris is passionate about his work, and it is truly contagious within the office. We all work very well together and enjoy each other’s company! I am thankful to be a part of the Trentini team!
