Ms. Ginny is not a new colleague of Dr Schrupp, they actually worked alongside each other at the dental resource center at LRGH prior to him opening his private practice. Ms. Ginny is very well known to the preschool/elementary schools in the area as the tooth fairy, where she visited classrooms and provided oral hygiene instruction. She was a health service coordinator for Belknap and Merrimack counties head start programs and also set up oral care programs for numerous nursing homes in the area. The importance of oral care during all phases of life has been a driving force in her 30+ years as a dental hygienist.
