Meredith Spink, with Spink Dentistry, is going on her eighth year of being a dental assistant at her father’s dental office, specializing in same day crowns. Her formerly part-time job went full time when Dr. Spink invested in their E4D system which is same-day crown technology.
“We purchased our system back in 2009, and shortly afterwards, I did extra course work and exams to receive my CDD (Certified in Digital Dentistry) accreditation. A couple years later, I became a Certified Integration Specialist (CIS), which is through E4D Technologies, in Dallas, Texas. Being an integration specialist allows me to travel the country and train other dental offices on this software. I really enjoy training other assistants, like myself, and watching them learn, and I enjoy what I do every day for our practice here in Birmingham,” she said.
She loves working in Vestavia.
“I was born and raised here, so it is very familiar to me, and our patients feel like family. I also never knew how much I would enjoy the opportunity to work for my dad, ‘Dr. Spink.’ My favorite thing to do is to listen to patients complimenting him when he leaves the room, not knowing that I am his daughter. I just smile real big and say, ‘thank you,’” she said.
When she is not working, she loves spending time with her family, especially her little girl, Laney, who is 3 years old.
“We love being on the water, whether it’s the beach or the lake. We also enjoying cheering for our Auburn Tigers!”
