Jen

​ As one of Dr. Britten’s surgical dental assistants, Jen strives to make our patients feel comfortable as she understands that coming to the dentist can definitely be an experience that causes anxiety!

Her dental career began in the Air Force in 1996.  Since then she has worked in many aspects of the dental office, but by far assisting is her favorite. Jen, along with her husband Brian and son Connor, relocated to Florida from New Jersey to be closer to her father. Outside of the office she enjoyes reading, swimming and cheering on her son’s baseball team.
