  • Ashlee
    Dental Assistant

    My passion for dentistry started in 2010 when I became a dental assistant. Being a dental assistant gives me the opportunity to help people to keep their mouths healthy. I enjoy getting to know people and helping them feel at ease and comfortable in the dentist office. 

    Besides my love for making jewelry, I love spending time outdoors from backpacking to snowshoeing in my free time. I feel very fortunate living near the North Cascades and being able to enjoy the beautiful scenery. I am excited to be a part of the Stanwood Dental Care team!

I’m passionate about dentistry, I love knowing that I am helping people achieve healthy, beautiful smiles day in and day out.

  • Alicia
    Dental Hygienist

    My main duty is to provide therapies to keep our patients' oral health in optimal condition while meeting their comfort and aesthetic needs. I enjoy the relationships I am able to build with our patients, as well as educating them on how they can improve their overall health. I live in the Stanwood community with my husband, Josh, and our three sons, Leif, Brock, and Beau, who keep us busy! I've been working with Dr. Shawn Magelsen at Stanwood Dental Care since 2006 and he is an amazing dentist who truly cares about the health and well being of each of his patients. He is a perfectionist in providing excellent dental care with a friendly and compassionate demeanor. The ease in which he connects with those around him seems effortless. Stanwood Dental Care is the only dental office I would recommend to my family and friends!

I married an amazing man in 2006; we have been blessed with two wonderful children.

  • Jacque
    Dental Hygienist

    I joined the team in November 2020 as one of the hygienists. I was a dental assistant for 11 years before going to hygiene school at Pima Medical and graduated in 2016. Education is important to me, for myself as well as for my patients.

    My husband and I moved to Camano Island in 2020. We love spending time at the beach, golfing and with our dogs.

  • Kara
    Dental Hygienist

    I started my career in dentistry in 2013 as a dental assistant, but I knew I didn’t want my journey to stop there. I love working in dentistry, so I challenged myself to further my education and eventually graduated from Lake Washington Technical College in 2021 with a degree in dental hygiene. I have been working at Stanwood Dental Care since then and I have loved every day being here! It is very rewarding to work with patients and have a good connection with each of them. Providing oral health care treatment and education on an individual basis is important to me. I grew up in Stanwood where I met my husband, Kyle. We have been together since high school, married since 2014. We have two amazing kids, Kellen and Kinslee. When I’m not working, I love being with my family outdoors playing sports, camping, or going on vacation!

  • Heidi
    Dental Hygienist

    I have been a part of this team since November 2021. I graduated from Shoreline Community College in 2017. I love working as a Dental Hygienist because it gives me a unique opportunity to get to know my patients one-on-one, while being able to help them reach optimal health. I decided to become a hygienist because of my own struggles with my teeth as a young girl, and felt it was a way to learn as much as possible, while helping other people who are often frustrated with the discomforts of coming in for Dental treatment. I had the opportunity to travel to Bolivia in 2017 to deliver dental treatments to children in a remote village. I love to travel for almost any reason! I have been married to my amazing husband since 2020, and I have 2 incredible stepchildren, 3 fur babies, and a ton of plants! On the weekends we find adventures, play games, or work on projects

  • Root Canal Treatment

    Every tooth has two sections: a crown, the visible part of the tooth above the gum line, and one or more roots, which anchor the teeth within the jaw. Each tooth has three basic layers: an outer layer of hard enamel (which protects the crown) or cementum (which covers the root), a middle layer of softer ...

    The bacteria in plaque produce acids that erode tooth enamel, eventually creating a hole, or cavity, in the tooth surface. Left untreated, this decay can spread to the interior of the tooth, and might lead to the need for a crown, a root canal, or even extraction. When caught early, your dentist can ...
