With over three years of experience as a dental hygienist and a background as a dental assistant, Stephanie Kevern is dedicated to helping patients achieve healthier smiles with confidence. Her journey began as a dental assistant, where her love for dentistry grew, inspiring her to pursue a career in dental hygiene. She earned her Dental Hygiene degree from Fortis College and continues to expand her knowledge as a member of both the Utah Dental Association (UDA) and the Utah Dental Hygienists’ Association (UDHA). She actively participates in continuing education through weekly webinars and live seminars to stay current with the latest procedures and protocols.

Stephanie is passionate about building strong connections with her patients, working alongside them to create healthy oral habits while ensuring they feel heard and supported. She approaches every visit with compassion, offering judgment-free care and prioritizing her patients’ comfort. Whether it’s taking breaks during an appointment or adjusting her approach to ease dental anxiety, her goal is to create a positive and relaxing experience.

As part of the Abundant Dental Care team, Stephanie values the collaboration and dedication shared by her colleagues. She enjoys meeting monthly with the hygiene team to discuss new ideas and ways to improve patient care, ensuring that every visit feels like time spent with family.

Outside of work, Stephanie loves spending time with her husband and their young son. She enjoys baking cakes and cookies, gardening fresh fruits and veggies, and going jeeping with friends. She’s also working on opening a farm stand in the Orem/Vineyard area, where she’ll offer homemade baked goods, fresh produce, and locally sourced products like soaps, honey, and lip balms.

One of her most memorable moments as a hygienist was when a patient requested to see her exclusively, even delaying their appointment until she returned from maternity leave. That patient described their visits as feeling like “catching up with a friend” — an experience Stephanie strives to provide for all her patients, blending thorough care with a personal, light-hearted touch.
