Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
Dr. Hill’s dad was a dentist who had his own practice, so she grew up helping him and saw firsthand how important dental care was for the community. Since she was a little girl, she knew she wanted to be just like him and have a career that can positively impact people’s lives for decades to come.
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
After earning her bachelor’s degree in biochemistry from Stonehill College, Dr. Hill graduated as valedictorian from the Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine in 2014. She started practicing in Milton, MA, and after a year, she knew she wanted to get back to her roots and returned to Maine.
Dr. Hill went on to practice in Gorham for more than nine years, where she became deeply involved with the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD). In 2019, she earned her Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD), a distinction that reflects her commitment to advanced continuing education and excellence in patient care.
She joined DOCS (Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation), received advanced training in oral sedation, and today is able to provide IV sedation dentistry. Dr. Hill is one of the few general dentists in the state to hold this certification. In 2016, Dr. Hill completed an immersive course in guided dental implant treatment. She loves placing implants and transforming a procedure that can seem intimidating into one that is simple, comfortable, and predictable for her patients. To stay at the forefront of dentistry, she completes an average of 100 hours of continuing education each year, allowing her to consistently provide state-of-the-art care.
Dr. Hill is also an active member of the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Facial Esthetics.
Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?
Originally from Dover-Foxcroft, Dr. Hill is married to a wonderful man named Ryan, a CPA who has his own tax planning business. They have two young boys, Graham and Brooks, and enjoy hiking, boating, and doing all kinds of physical activity together as a family. Lately, as their children are getting into sports, Dr. Hill and her husband find themselves cheering them on from the sidelines on most weekends. They also love to travel and try to go on a few trips each year.
