Becky

Certified Orthodontic Assistant / Clinical Director / Inventory Manager

I entered the orthodontic field in 1993 in Massachussetts, where I was born and raised. After visiting florida as a child, I always knew I woud become a permanent resident here. I started working for Dr. Tinsworth in 1999 as an orthodontic assistant. My job consists of many different roles. I assist Dr. Tinsworth in the clinic, I manage and order supplies for the clinic, and I assist with marketing on social media. The favorite part of my job is creating beautiful smiles and watching as patients evolve through treatment and gain confidence. 

I have been married to my husband Chris since 1996. We have a daughter, Miranda, and two kitties. As a family, we enjoy going to Disney World, cheering on the Red Sox, Patriots, and Bruins, and going to the beach.

I have been blessed to work for the most knowledgable and experienced Orthodontist in his field.

Rita

Scheduling Coordinator

Originally from New Jersey, I moved to Bradenton in February 2021 and a few days later had the wonderful opportunity to join the Tinsworth Orthodontic Team as scheduling coordinator. I truly enjoy being part of such a welcoming team. 

I have an Associates Degree in Science, graduated from Dental Assisting school in 2012 and I immediately loved the Orthodontic field. 

I began my career as an orthodontic assistant and have taken on many different roles. Outside of the office I spend most of my time with my son and two dogs, Rover and Chance. I enjoy finding new places to eat, going to the beach, and I'm a big Harry Potter and Dallas Cowboys fan!

Melanie

Finance and Treatment Coordinator

I am excited to be working with the very welcoming and friendly staff here at Tinsworth Orthodontics! I recently moved to Bradenton from Virginia but I am originally from Nottingham, England. I bring over 20 years of experience in orthodontics and love making people smile. 

I am looking forward to exploring this beautiful area, especially the white sand beaches, with my husband, two sons and our dog Little Dude.

Tiffany

Marketing / Professional Relations

I am a Manatee County native and began working with Tinsworth Orthodontics in the summer of 2000 as a Treatment Coordinator. In 2011, after staying home to raise my two young children, I took on the creative and fun position of Professional Relations and Marketing Coordinator. It is my job to brand and promote Tinsworth Orthodontics in the community. Since I work with the most knowledgeable and experienced orthodontist and staff in Manatee County, it’s pretty easy!

Having grown up on Anna Maria Island, I enjoy going to the beach, boating, camping, and traveling with my family.
