Our Dentist
Thomas Clemente, DDS
Dentist
I am a graduate of the University of Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. Upon graduating, I completed an additional year of residency training in a program for the Advanced Education of General Dentistry. I am a member of the American Dental Association, Maine Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry, and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.
Outside of work, my wife Kristen and I love spending time with our three wonderful children Aden, Tommy, and Emily. Aden is in college, Tommy is in high school, and Emily is in preschool. They are all very active with outdoor sports and Maine is a perfect backdrop for their adventurous spirits! Read more +
In my spare time I enjoy creating sculpture. I employ various methods such as casting, welding, and digital manufacturing. Besides providing me with an endless creative outlet for the last 30 years, it has allowed me to develop and perfect many detail orientated skills and techniques also found every day within dentistry.
One of the very best parts of my day is watching my patients realize how painless, easy, honest, and kindhearted a dental visit can actually be. My continual commitment to education allows my patients access to the best possible quality of care for each of their individual oral health care needs.

Having patients recognize me when I am out and about in the community is wonderful because then I know I have made a connection. I couldn’t be happier than when I am developing relationships with patients and I can’t wait to meet you! In my spare time I enjoy kayaking, gardening and spending time with family, especially my grandchildren.
Dental Hygienists
Tammy, RDH
Dental Hygienist
My name is Tamsen Blake (Tammy) and I joined the team at Midcoast Family Dentistry in April 2021. I’m a 1994 University of Maine Dental Hygiene program graduate and have worked in the area ever since. When not at the office, I enjoy time spent with family and friends, traveling to new places, music, paddle boarding and fitness. I look forward to meeting you soon!
Laureh, RDH
Dental Hygienist
Being born and raised in Maine has been great, and the Midcoast has been my favorite area by far. I have been part of the MidCoast Family Dentistry Team since 2010, and have enjoyed every minute of it. I have always had an attraction to the medical field and helping people live healthier lives. My interests really come down to helping people in countries that cannot afford good dental care, like Haiti.
I received my Associates of Science in Dental Hygiene degree in 2009 and am currently working toward a Bachelors in Applied Sciences. Outside of work I enjoy reading, baking, gardening, playing the piano and singing, spending time outdoors and being involved at my church.
Dental Assistants
Crystal
Dental Assistant
I graduated from the University of Maine, earning my dental assistant certification 17 years ago. I am so thankful to have the ability to do what I do every day, helping keep people healthy and happy. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two children. Everything we do together as a family is time well spent. We enjoy camping, boating, hiking and exploring new places. I look forward to meeting you and helping you to take care of your oral health!
Colleen
Dental Assistant
Hi! My name is Colleen and I’ve always had an interest in working in the dental field. I received my dental assisting certification in 2018 from Dental Careers Institute and I love all aspects of this career! I grew up on the coast of Maine and love all things outdoors. During my time out of the office, you can find me boating, fishing, hiking or snowmobiling. I look forward to continue building my career and learning here at Midcoast Family Dentistry. My goal is always to help all patients have a comfortable and enjoyable visit!
