Lauren
Orthodontic Technician
I started working in the orthodontic field in 2005, after graduating from Western School of Business. I have worked with Dr. Rinchuse for more than 13 years and I was one of the first assistants to join the team. I work directly with patients doing adjustments, placing and removing braces and appliances. I also order all the office supplies and manage our Invisalign cases. I even let Doc talk to me into being an Invisalign patient myself! I live in West Leechburg with my husband, son, cat and 2 dogs. I love what I do and love seeing all the new smiles!! When not at the office I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.

Orthodontic Technician
Hello! I have been working as an Orthodontic Assistant for over 20years and have been with Dr. Rinchuse for more than 13 years. Most likely you will see me at your first visit with Dr Rinchuse but I assist the doctor with all appointments and help with inventory and lab work. My favorite part of my job is seeing the end result. My husband and I have been married for 20 years and have 3 boys and 2 dogs. In my free time I enjoy camping and spending time with my family. You will most likely find me at one of my kids sporting events.
Sandy
Office Manager (Natrona Heights and Leechburg)
Although I have known Doc for more than 8 years, I officially joined the team in 2015. I schedule and organize daily tasks for Dr. Rinchuse and the team. I am also in charge of all the financial matters at the offices. I enjoy meeting families and welcoming them into our Orthodontique family. In my spare time I like to travel, attend Pittsburgh sporting events and spend time with loved ones. I love to entertain and cook. As a survivor, I am very active in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure every May with my family, friends and Orthodontique family. I have a son and daughter and am married to my best friend, Bill. I am the proud Nonna to a granddaughter and am excited to welcome another in July 2019.
Susie
Office Manager (Belle Vernon)
After graduating from Belle Vernon Area High School in 1999, I began working as a dental assistant and obtained my CDA (2002) and my RDH (2004) from WCCC. I have since worked in many aspects of the dental office, having experience in pedodontics, oral surgery, general dentistry and orthodontics. Having known Dr. Rinchuse since High School (1996) I joined the Orthodontique team a few months after our Belle Vernon office opened for business in 2013. At Orthodontique I hold an administrative position and the daily financial operations of the office including accounts receivable, insurance claims and assist patients in making payment arrangements. I especially enjoy seeing our patients beautiful smiles once finished with braces. Outside of work I enjoy the outdoors, traveling and spending time with my husband and 2 daughters.
