Meet The Geneva Family Dental Team
		Dr. Melissa Jentz-Cote grew up in Buffalo Grove, IL and moved to Geneva with her husband Mike to start the dental practice of her dreams. She attended Indiana University in Bloomington for undergrad where she received a BS in Biology. Dr. Jentz-Cote then went on to the College of Dentistry at the University of Illinois at Chicago - Class of 2001. She then became an associate in a large, busy practice in Lake Zurich, along with teaching in the emergency department at the UIC College of Dentistry. Currently Dr. Melissa Jentz-Cote is growing Geneva Family Dental and teaching at the UIC College of Dentistry. Dr Jentz-Cote chose Geneva to open her practice because the people are so wonderful and genuine, the town is lively and beautiful, and Geneva is where she wanted to settle down, raise a family, and grow a family dental practice that she and the community can be proud of. She is very active in the community, volunteering to teach grade schoolers about dentistry during dental health month along with mentoring future young dentists. She is also involved with the Geneva and St Charles chambers along with supporting many of the Geneva athletes. Dr Jentz-Cote is so proud of her growing practice and is so happy to have such wonderful patients. Geneva Family Dental has grown so fast and the community has embraced us with open arms!

During residency training he completed rotations in emergency medicine, anesthesia, oral medicine, and oral surgery. Dr. Winckler's primary interest is general dentistry because it will allow him the opportunity to develop lasting relationships with patients and members of the community for years to come.
		Dental Hygienists
		Michele - We want to welcome our new hygienist, Michele. We are so glad she is now apart of our team and can't wait to get to know her more. Michele grew up in Sugar Grove, and graduated from Kaneland High School. She went to hygiene school at Parkland in Champaign. Michele knew she wanted to be a hygienist ever since she was a little girl at age five. She loves helping people and making them feel good. Her goal is that every patient that leaves their dental visit is well educated and smiling. It is so important to her that she gets to know each patient as a person. Michele is married to her high school sweetheart of over 16 years. She resides in Elburn with her husband and three kids, Riley, Kyle, and Blake. All of her spare time is spent with family, friends, and watching many of the kid's activities.
