DENTAL ASSISTANT APPRECIATION WEEK BUT MAKE IT LOUD!!!!!!

Because truly… the energy, the friendship, the chaos (the good kind), the teamwork — it would not be the same without our assistants.

Yes, they keep the schedule moving. Yes, they’re clinically sharp and insanely skilled. Yes, they somehow know what the doctors need before it’s even said out loud. But beyond all of that? It’s the friendships.

The inside jokes in between patients. The hype sessions before big procedures. The “I got you” looks across the room. The way we back each other up on long days. It’s not just coworkers — it’s real connection.

They show up for the doctors. They show up for patients. And they show up for each other.
That kind of culture doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built on trust, loyalty, laughter, and a whole lot of shared snacks in the break room.
To our assistants — you are the backbone, the heartbeat, and the best kind of friends. We love doing this alongside you.

Let’s be honest.

The doctors look really calm and put together all day… and that is 90% because of the assistants.

Behind every smooth procedure is someone suctioning like a pro, passing instruments at lightning speed, adjusting the light, flipping rooms, restocking trays, and somehow knowing exactly what’s needed before it’s even asked for.

The real magic? It’s happening behind the scenes.

The docs absolutely know it too. The quiet “thank yous.” The look across the room when something is handed over at the perfect moment. The unspoken teamwork that makes the whole day flow.

Assistants are the ultimate multitaskers, mind readers, and chaos coordinators — and we are so lucky to have the best.

The spotlight might be on the doctors, but trust us… they know who really makes the show run.

It’s Dental Assistant Appreciation Week and we’re shining the biggest spotlight on Kenzie and Caitlyn today!

These two are the engine behind the scenes for both Dr. McRae and Dr. Nooman. From surgical days to packed restorative schedules, they keep everything flowing, organized, and calm. Instruments ready. Rooms flipped. Patients supported. Doctors on track!!

And somehow they manage to do all of that while having a great time at the office! The side comments, the quick wit, the energy they bring into every room — it keeps our whole team going.

Kenzie and Caitlyn, we appreciate you more than you know. Our office truly runs because of you!

It’s Dental Assistant Appreciation Week and we are taking a moment to celebrate four women who truly keep our office running every single day — Caitlyn, Tonya, Kenzie, and Sarah.

Behind every smooth procedure, every calm patient experience, and every on-time schedule is a dental assistant making it happen. They are setting up rooms before the first patient arrives, staying one step ahead during procedures, anticipating what Dr. McRae and Dr. Nooman need before it’s even said out loud, and turning rooms over at lightning speed so the day flows seamlessly.

But what makes them so special isn’t just their skill — it’s their heart. They reassure nervous patients. They hold hands. They explain things twice. They celebrate smile transformations like they’re their own. They bring humor into long surgical days and somehow keep the energy positive even when the schedule is packed.

Caitlyn, Tonya, Kenzie, and Sarah each bring their own personality and strengths to the team, and together they create the kind of support system every great dental office needs.
We see the early mornings. We see the teamwork. We see the way you care. And we are so incredibly grateful for each of you!
Our doctors shine because you stand beside them. Happy Dental Assistant Appreciation Week to the best of the best.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Melanie Noomen!

We are so lucky to celebrate one of our very own today! Dr. Melanie joined the McRae Dental team this fall, and she has been such a wonderful addition to our office. She puts patients at ease from the moment they sit in her chair, and her work is truly top notch. Thoughtful, detail oriented, and always striving for excellence, she brings such a calm confidence to everything she does!

Originally from Minnesota, she completed her dental training at the College of Dental Medicine at Roseman University of Health Sciences in Utah, where she experienced an incredible hands on learning environment that shaped the thoughtful, detail oriented dentist she is today. Before making the move to Boise, she was practicing up in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho for several years, and we are so grateful she chose to come south and join our team.

Dr. Melanie, we hope your birthday is filled with joy and relaxation! We are so thankful for you and excited for the year ahead!

Not all X-rays are created equal.

At our office, we use a CBCT (3D CT scan) to see what traditional X-rays simply can’t. This scan gives us a full, three-dimensional view of your teeth, bone, airway, nerves, and surrounding structures. No guessing. No blind spots.
Why does that matter? Because we know what we know… and we also know what we don’t know. And when it comes to your health, we don’t like guessing.

A CT scan helps us plan implants with precision, evaluate infections, assess bone levels, look at impacted teeth, and even evaluate airway concerns. It gives us clarity so we can recommend treatment with confidence.

Right now, we’re offering a complimentary CT scan for new patients and for current patients who have never had one taken in our office.

Better imaging means better planning. Better planning means better outcomes.

If you haven’t had one yet, this is your sign! Call so book that appointment! 🦷🪥🤍

If you’ve ever mixed them up, you’re not alone. 🤍

Our full-time RDHs, Erika and Marjorie, get confused for each other all the time. Same calm presence, same gentle touch, same genuine care for every patient who sits in their chair.

We are so thankful for the heart and consistency they bring to our hygiene team. McRae Dental is better because of these two. 🤍🦷🪥✨

When we say our coworkers are family - WE TRULY MEAN IT! ♥️

There’s regular dental energy… and then there’s surgical assistant energy after an energy drink 😂

If you’ve ever wondered how our implant days run so smoothly with Dr. Lon McRae, this is your answer. Precision, focus… and apparently just a touch of caffeine-fueled chaos.

Our surgical assistants are the real MVPs behind the scenes. They’re setting up trays, anticipating every move, keeping patients comfortable, managing the tech, and somehow still finding time to make us laugh in between procedures. Implant days are long and detail-heavy, but this crew keeps the vibe high and the standards even higher.

They told us to “keep it professional,” but we prefer to keep it “flatulent.”

Ashley came to us for a smile makeover, but along the way she shared parts of her story that truly stopped us in our tracks.

What shocked us most wasn’t just her dental journey—it was how she had been spoken to and treated by other dental professionals throughout the process. No patient should ever leave a dental office feeling smaller, ashamed, or discouraged about their smile.

At McRae Dental, our mission goes far beyond teeth. Yes, we love creating confident, healthy smiles—but just as importantly, we believe in protecting our patients’ self-esteem and dignity. Dentistry should build people up, not break them down.

Ashley trusted us during a vulnerable moment, and we’re honored to be part of her transformation—inside and out.

Stay tuned as we share more of Ashley’s story and her full smile journey. This is one you won’t want to miss. 🤍
