Our Team

Dr. Jacqueline Reid started working at a dental office at the age of 15. She says that it was this early work experience that made her the person she is today. Dr. Reid counts her dental degree as one of the most important life choices she has ever made, and she thoroughly enjoys all aspects of dentistry. She considers herself fortunate to have such a fulfilling career (pun intended!).

Dr. Reid has been practicing in Chatham for over 25 years. She believes that Chatham is such a wonderful town to have a practice, and she thinks of all of our patients as family. Dr. Reid graduated from Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine in 1996, and she then went on to complete a hospital-based general practice residency at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In 2004, Dr. Reid was appointed director of the same program and the chief of hospital dentistry at Robert Wood Johnson. She is responsible for the educational program of the dental residents, as well as the administrative demands of the program. What Dr. Reid enjoys most about her position as director is teaching and taking care of disabled patients’ dental needs in the operating room.

After the tragic events of September 11, Dr. Reid became interested in using her dental degree to serve the community with forensic dentistry. In 2006, Dr. Reid completed a 14-month fellowship in forensic odontology (forensic dentistry) at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. She became board certified in forensic odontology in 2012. Dr. Reid works with several medical examiners’ offices to aid in the identification of victims for families, and she also assists law enforcement in various other forensic dental cases, including identification, dental age estimation, bitemark analysis, abuse, malpractice and standard of care, dental fraud and dental workers’ compensation. Dr. Reid teaches at Rutgers Dental School in forensic odontology and is a member of the regional mass disaster team. She is a member of the American Academy of Forensic Science (AAFS) and the current secretary of the American Society of Forensic Odontology (ASFO). She is also a member of the American Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) and the American Dental Association® (ADA) and is currently on the executive committee of the American Board of Forensic Dentistry (ABFO), which she is in line to be President of in 2023.

When not at the office, Dr. Reid enjoys spending time with her two daughters.

Jennifer is our resident New Yorker and a full-time dental hygienist. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Wagner College and completed her dental hygiene education at Middlesex County College. Although she became a licensed dental hygienist in 2019, she has years of prior dental experience as both an assistant and a front desk associate. Jennifer has been part of our practice since July 2022. She is passionate about providing patients with the best possible dental experience and motivating them to practice exceptional home care.

When she’s not at the office, Jennifer enjoys reading, spending time with her family and fiancé, and cheering on the New York Rangers.

Stephanie graduated from Union County College and has been practicing dental hygiene for over 25 years. For the past ten years, she has been employed in the dental clinic at Robert Wood Johnson Hospital, where she dedicates her care to patients with special needs. She also volunteers and helps organize the “Give Kids a Smile” program, which provides dental care to underprivileged children.

Stephanie strives to make each patient feel comfortable and relaxed in the dental chair. She is committed to providing great patient care, and achieving optimal oral health is always her goal.

When she is not working, she enjoys Broadway musicals, biking, hiking, and working out at the gym. When time allows, she also enjoys traveling.

Kimia is our full-time dental assistant, and she started at our office in 2024. She was born and raised here in Chatham and began her journey in dentistry right here in our office. In May 2024, she graduated from the University of Delaware with an Honors B.S. in Biological Sciences. During her college years, she shadowed multiple dentists and soon developed a passion for dentistry. Through her work as our dental assistant and the mentorship of Dr. Reid and the staff, Kim is on a bright path to becoming a future dentist.

Kim has developed a strong sense of commitment and care for our patients and the office. Whether she’s assisting in procedures, helping out in the office, or getting to know patients, it is clear that Kim is ready and able to put our patients first. Her welcoming, warm demeanor has already created a sense of connection with anyone who walks into the office. She has obtained her dental X-ray license and is currently in the process of applying to dental school.

In her free time, Kim likes to spend time with family and friends, as well as her dog, Mason. She enjoys staying active, going out to eat, and watching the Yankees.
