Meet the Team

Max Palmer

Denturist, Owner of Derrick Denture & Implant Centre

Max graduated from the NAIT Denturist Technology Program with honors. Throughout his adult years, he has acquired a variety of business, social and creative experiences that have helped prepare him to enter the denturist profession. Max enjoys fostering strong relationships with his patients. He does this by listening to their concerns, helping them understand what options are available to resolve their concerns and proceeding when the patient is happy and comfortable with the proposed course of denture treatment. Max has been happily married for over 30 years and spends most of his free time with his wife and daughter. He is also actively engaged in his church congregation and appreciates opportunities to help others in need. Hobbies include building and renovation projects, learning about new technology and loves reading comic books!

Lisa Martens, Denturist

Lisa graduated with honors from the Denturist Technology Program at NAIT.  She has always been interested in the dental field and knew at a young age that she wanted to pursue a career in this direction.  Lisa enjoys getting to know her patients, providing personalized and profession care and seeing her patients smile!

Outside of being a denturist, she enjoys music, reading books, spending time with friends and family and going to the mountains as much as possible.  She always looking for a new adventure and is open to trying to out new skills.

Sienna Palmer, Reception and IPC 

Sienna will be the first face you see when you come to Derrick Denture Clinic.  She has been working at Derrick Denture since November 2023 and loves the work she does.  She enjoys  helping and talking to patients throughout the day and the variety of conversations she has.

Sienna has many hobbies, so of which you will see on her desk when she greets you.  Don’t be surprised at the amount of yarn she has as she recently picked up crocheting and hasn’t stopped since.  Whenever she has a break, she is working on a project of some sort.  Sienna frequently goes rock climbing and loves the outdoors.  When she returns home she continues with her hobbies and spends time with her family (Yes, Max Palmer is my Dad!) and her pet bird, a conure named Fijie.
