She didn’t come by her skills easily. As a graduate of LSU with a degree in Microbiology, she then went on to get her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from LSU Dental School in New Orleans.

Dr. Charpentier is a member of the American Dental Association, the Louisiana Dental Association, and the Acadiana Dental Association. She also has advanced training in many areas, including Oral Sedation and Six Month Smiles®, as well as aesthetic services like microneedling, botox, and dermal filler injections.
