Babylon Dental Care is excited to introduce our newest dental hygienist, Maria Vitagliano. A Bay Shore native and a proud graduate of Plaza College’s dental hygiene program, Maria brings skill, enthusiasm, and valuable local knowledge to our growing team.
Maria Vitagliano, Babylon Dental Care’s newest Dental Hygienist
Maria embarked on her dentistry journey in 2012, starting as a dental assistant. By 2019, she had earned her credentials as a dental hygienist and has since been serving patients with dedication and skill for nearly four years. However, her connection to dentistry goes much deeper.
“I feel as though I was born into the dentistry field,” she said. “My family has been deeply rooted in dental practices long before I was born, and I’ve always had a passion for the profession.”
One of Maria’s standout qualities is her personable nature and her ability to comfort patients, especially those with anxieties about visiting the dentist.
“I find immense satisfaction in communicating with patients and easing their fears,” she said.
Maria’s commitment to her patients and her compassionate approach to them are inspired by her two young children, ages 1 and 3, who propel her to work harder every day. But life is more than just hard work, and when she’s outside the clinic, Maria enjoys singing, a hobby reflecting her vivacious personality and love of making people happy.
Speaking of her decision to join Babylon Dental Care, Maria emphasizes the clinic’s unique environment, highlighting the “opportunity for growth and the well-structured, organized setup that differentiates Babylon Dental Care from others.”
Jaclyn Cooper, clinical director, echoes Maria’s enthusiasm. “We are more than excited to welcome Maria to our hygiene team,” she says. “She prides herself on her patient care, especially on her ability to make her patients feel comfortable and that they are in good hands when they come to see her. She has such an amazing welcoming attitude, and I know she will be a much-loved member of our hygiene team.”
