Meet Our Team
Mission Statement
We are a relationship-based practice providing comprehensive dental care in a relaxed, professional space, guiding patients on their journey to optimal health.
Office Environment
Beyond our excellent dentistry, we place a premium on the energy in our office. We strive to maintain an easy, breezy roll that we hope carries you through your day. Each team member is not only outstanding individually, but their make-up together is truly special. You can’t train someone to be nice, so we hire nice people.
Our Singing Dental Assistant
Martha Bisson
Longtime Dental Assistant:
Martha is Dr. Bloom’s longtime dental assistant, and if you’re in the office for more than ten minutes, chances are you will hear her sing. We cherish her sunny disposition, calm demeanor, sense of humor, and professionalism. Marty has been with David since 1986, (we all her David’s second wife).
Dedication to Patients:
Thank God, she doesn’t want to retire, she still wants to toe in the water as she’d miss our patients—from her words— we have such a good time laughing all day, our patients are the best. Because she wants more me time she’s cutting back to two days a week and training our new lead assistant Natasha.
Passion for Reading:
Want to get Marty talking? Ask what she’s reading. She consumes books; I’m always asking what I should be on my reading list. She and her husband Richie enjoy the simple things in life—kids, grandkids, and their cabin in Maine.
Hygienist Therapist
Natasha Gagnon R.D.H.
Natasha is our newly minted hygiene therapist. While in hygiene school, she was David’s lead assistant, now heading up all hygiene therapy services —healthy hygiene therapy, non-surgical Perio, Preventative: using laser and Pearl Ai.
Friendly and Dedicated:
She’s super friendly, fun, soft-spoken, and sharp as a tack.
Balancing Act:
She’s also a married mom of two. In her limited free time, is a regular at the CrossFit Gym.
Team-Lead
Heidi Williams
Talented Lab Technician:
Heidi has made a career in dentistry; she’s an incredibly talented lab tech. She makes our custom bite splints and designs and finishes all CEREC crowns—also assists David at least once a week.
People Person and Prankster:
She’s a pure people person and a pure prankster, so don’t be surprised when she ties a leopard bandana on you because Thursday is leopard day. She’s guaranteed to make you laugh, maybe make you wear something out of her endless bag of tricks we call her “prop bag”.
Life Outside Dentistry:
She’s also a cool and busy mom. Ask her about her favorite season; she’ll smile and say summer. Heidi lives for summer— their home is a lake paradise.
Heidi and Jessie: The Dynamic Duo:
You only have to step through our doors to see that Heidi and Jessie live to make you smile. They’re both pranksters, and if there’s a reason to change things up, Heidi is at the ready to with a feather boa, leopard scarf right out of her prop bag. Jessie, well, she doesn’t feel like she’s done her job unless she gets you to giggle. These two are always on, keeping the energy high and the mood light. Heidi’s favorite quote “If it’s not fun then I’m going home”.

She joins us with a wealth of experience in orthodontics and general, first as an assistant then moving on as treatment coordinator. She stepped away from the profession and turned her love for dogs into a successful dog walking business—walking pups while raising her girls, Cora and Isla, now ages seven and five. Nova—the Cane Corso joined our family and his personality has brought such an amazing balance of unlimited love and fun.
Balancing Act:
