meet Your Hygienist
Hello, I’m Jillian!
But almost everyone calls me Jill 🙂 I was born in Singapore in ‘93 (and an Aries, in case you wanted to know). I’ve worked in private practice in Langley since graduating from UBC with a Bachelor’s Degree in Dental Science in Dental Hygiene in 2014. I opened Risette in 2024 with my sister, Jerry, who took a permanent hiatus in 2026. (Please let me know if you’re looking to get in contact with her. I’d miss her, too!)
I currently live in Walnut Grove with my husband, Joo. We love to travel, though I admit it is mostly to eat delicious food! My hobbies are baking, gardening, amateur interior home design, and I adore dogs and animals. My greatest talents are sleeping in well past noon and a drycleaner-like ability to get stains out of things 🙂
As a hygienist, I strive to be gentle, attentive, and evidence-based – and make your appointments as enjoyable as possible! I love to chit-chat and like to hum to the music, but totally get it if you just want to listen to a podcast or nap. I take your comfort seriously – please let me know how I can help you love dental visits and your smile 🙂
Thanks for joining us at Risette. I can’t wait to meet you!
real patient reviews
Jillian and Jerry's expertise is unmatched. They not only excel in their professional skills but also have a unique ability to make patients feel well taken care of. Their friendly approach and clear communication throughout the process helped alleviate any anxiety I had about going to the dentist. For those who find dental visits intimidating, Risette Dental Hygiene is the place to go. Jillian and Jerry go above and beyond to ensure you feel comfortable and supported. The care they provide is exceptional, making the entire experience a breeze.
Risette Dental Hygiene is a top-notch dental office where you'll be in good hands. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a positive and comfortable dental experience.
I've never been a fan of getting my teeth cleaned, but Jerry's friendly, thorough, and gentle approach made the experience surprisingly pleasant. It didn't feel like a typical dental cleaning. As for the teeth whitening, being my first time, Jerry provided a clear explanation of the procedure and patiently answered all my questions. The large TV in each room made the waiting time during the whitening process enjoyable and relaxing.
Visiting a regular dental office has never given me such a relaxing and satisfying experience. I am absolutely thrilled with the results.
Thank you, Jill and Jerry!
Given it was my first time with teeth whitening, I was slightly nervous but Jill did a fantastic job explaining the procedure and answering my questions in detail. It was such an easy, painless, and relaxing process that I fell asleep! There was even a large TV situated above me which provided some entertainment while I waited during the procedure. From start to finish – it felt like a premium dental experience. I’ll definitely be back for a cleaning next time.
Thank you Jill & Jerry!
They are very professional and very personable. They talk to me in terms I can easily understand about my dental care and oral health They make me feel comfortable and pain free during every cleaning. They are very gentle and very thorough. They succeeded in getting me to floss my teeth daily where no other hygienist or dentist had been successful. This has resulted in a remarkable improvement in the health of my gums.
They pay meticulous attention to detail during cleanings. They take time to thoroughly explain each step of the process. Their gentle yet thorough approach leaves our teeth feeling incredibly clean and refreshed. Beyond technical skills, Jillian and Jeraldine go the extra mile to educate us about proper oral care practices, providing helpful tips and recommendations tailored to our individual needs.
My family and I wholeheartedly recommend Jillian and Jeraldine to anyone in search of a knowledgeable, caring and skilled dental hygienist. Your smiles will be healthy and bright!!
We’d love to hear from you
