The Team at Associates in Family Dentistry
Experience the Difference! High-Tech Dental and Smiles for the Whole Family.
Michael C. Hutchison
DDS, AAACD
Dr. Hutchison practices dentistry based on one primary goal: to provide excellence in dental services and overall care to his patients. Dr. Hutchison graduated from Loyola University’s Dental School where he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 1987. Upon completion of dental school he practiced in LaGrange, Illinois for 10 years.
Moving to the Traverse City area with his family in 1997, he quickly established a thriving dental practice that has progressed into one of the area’s most quality-driven practices for both general and cosmetic dentistry in the Northern Michigan region and beyond. Dr. Hutchison focuses on creating a team-approach with each patient to deliver the best overall care possible. If you are looking for exceptional dentistry delivered in a relaxing atmosphere, look no further than Dr. Hutchison!
Outside of serving as one of the top family and cosmetic dentists in Traverse City, Dr. Hutchison enjoys spending time with his family, boating, playing golf and using computers. His dental interests focus on cosmetic dentistry, implants, pain management (TMJ), and sleep disorders.

Jennifer
Office Manager
I love warm weather and, with living in Northern Michigan, it is known that summertime is my absolute favorite time of year. I enjoy fishing on many of the beautiful lakes with my husband and children. I also like playing sports and most any game in general.
Megan
Patient Coordinator
I began working at Associates in Family Dentistry in September 2020. As a patient coordinator, I handle the ins and outs of the patient’s experience here in the office. Along with scheduling appointments, I assist patients in person and over the phone as well as manage everyday front desk tasks. I thoroughly enjoy the interactions and experiences I get to have with patients and my coworkers every day. I am so grateful for the opportunity to work with the caring and devoted people that I do here at Associates in Family Dentistry.
In my free time I enjoy drawing, painting, reading, rock collecting, and spending time with family.
Beth
Patient Coordinator
I was given the opportunity to be a part of the amazing team at Associates in Family Dentistry in August of 2022, as a patient coordinator. My position allows me to interact with everyone who comes into the office, which I enjoy tremendously.
I have been fortunate to have lived in the beautiful Traverse City area my whole life. In my free time, I’m with my daughter usually spending time with our family. In the summer, I enjoy swimming in our gorgeous fresh water, as well as fishing and boating with friends. In the winter, you may find me under my blankie, taking a nap.
Ann
RDH
I am originally from Mid-Michigan, where I graduated from Delta College with a degree in Dental Assisting in 2010. I decided to further my education and received my degree in Dental Hygiene from Mott Community College in 2015 and worked for a private practice in Clarkston.
I had been visiting Traverse City every year since I was an infant and dreamed of one day living here. That dream became a reality in May 2020 when my family decided to make the move up here. I am proud to work at Associates in Family Dentistry and look forward to increasing my knowledge; learning each day.
My husband and I have two young children, who take up much of my time, however, in the free time I do have, I enjoy baking, traveling, golfing, being outdoors, and of course spending as much time as I can with my family.
Nicolette
RDH
Aside from dentistry, I enjoy skiing, boating, and hiking in my free time; as well as spending time with my daughter, close friends, and family!
Tiffany
RDA
I joined the team at Associates in Family Dentistry in July 2022. I am a native of Northern Michigan and graduated from the dental assisting program through NMC in 2007. I then passed the state boards for my license as a Registered Dental Assistant. I can honestly say that I still have the same passion and love for dentistry as the day I started. I am the proud mother of one son. In my spare time you can find me outside enjoying nature, and spending time with my friends, family, & many fur babies.
