Gentle Touch Family Dentistry - Heather LaPlante

Having the opportunity to work alongside Dr. Szmigiel has truly been life-changing. Her caring attitude and genuine kindness have made a profound impact on me. I absolutely love my job—from warmly greeting our patients to enjoying the strong, supportive relationships among our delightful staff. At Gentle Touch Family Dentistry, kindness, compassion, respect, and loyalty are the foundation of everything we do. I believe our patients can feel this the moment they walk through our doors.


Through experience, I’ve learned that when you treat others with the same care and respect you wish to receive, that energy comes back to you. My passion in life is making sure people feel cared for, and I’m grateful to live that passion every day.


Outside of work, life is full and joyful with my wonderful husband, daughter, and our beloved dogs. You might spot us at the local farmer’s market, hiking trails, waterways, ski slopes, music events, coffee shops, or campgrounds—we treasure our time together and love exploring all that our community has to offer.


I look forward to meeting you and caring for your family here at Gentle Touch Family Dentistry.
