About Us

Learn more about the amazing staff that compliment Bentley Family Dentistry.

Dr. Scott Wyzykoski, DDS 

Julie Malcolm, RN

Owners/Managers

We have been married since 2009, and we started Bentley Family Dentistry in 2018 together and had 2 ridiculously loveable daughters in the short time since. 

Dr. Wyzykoski grew up about 50km southwest of Bentley in a log house on a small family farm that he is still proud to be a part of today.   He has always called Alberta home and loves living in Central Alberta, regardless of the harsh winter weather. He was a rodeo cowboy, in what seems like a previous life, for over 20 years. He considers himself first, and foremost, a cowboy. 

Julie is responsible for the tasteful renovation of this building for dental use and is also our infection control guru and dental RN for surgical procedures. She has had 2 other jobs. One as a part-time Operating Room Nurse in Red Deer and two, as an OT specialist with Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) in not-so-touristy places, although motherhood has suspended that calling for a few years.

General Dentist

Haley North

Registered Dental Assistant
Hello! My name is Haley and I am a Registered Dental Assistant. I did my schooling through an online program called Risio Institute for Digital Dental Education in Calgary which allowed me to work and learn at the same time! Near the end of my studies I was fortunate enough to go over seas and volunteer with ‘A Better World Canada’ in Kenya, Africa.

I grew up in Eckville and started the Welding program at the Red Deer Polytechnic straight out of high school. I received my Journeyman certificate in March 2021 and only used it for about 6 months. Although I still enjoy welding and will occasionally do it around the house, I was looking for a change. I always knew I wanted to do something in healthcare and I loved going to the dentist. A large part of liking the dentist was the amazing dental assistants I had, my goal is to be that comforting person for my patients when they walk through the door.

When I’m not at work you can find me with my other half working on our house, visiting family, or watching my younger brother play baseball and hockey!

Tessa Cameron 

Registered Dental Hygienist

Hello! My name is Tessa and I am a Registered Dental Hygienist that graduated from the University of Alberta with a Diploma in Dental Hygiene in 2018, and then a Bachelors of Science in Dental Hygiene in 2019. I am currently living in Blackfalds, and have been working at Bentley Family Dentistry since February of 2019. I love the small town feel and sense of community that comes with working in a rural dental office, and I can’t wait to keep meeting all of the great people in Bentley and the surrounding towns!

I grew up in Blackfalds and was involved in the competitive dance community in central Alberta before I pursued a career in dental hygiene. I always knew that I wanted to be a part of the dental profession from a young age, and I am very excited and proud to be here. When I am not at work, I enjoy being outside with our dog Jobi, cooking, camping and travelling whenever I get the chance! My husband Taylor and I are excited to be welcoming our first baby into the world in May 2023. I look forward to becoming part of the community and promoting great oral health!

Alycia Poffenroth 

Registered Dental Hygienist

 I grew up in Ponoka, Alberta and went to hygiene school in Mississauga, Ontario in 2010 and graduated from The Canadian Academy of Dental Hygiene with my diploma in 2012.

For 8 years I worked at Aurora Dental Group in Lacombe and now I am excited to be with Bentley Family Dentistry meeting neighbours and community members. I live just west of Bentley on a farm with my husband Colin, and three kids, Sofie and Jack and Kacey. Right now my spare time consists of raising three kids, cooking for the farm boys, gardening and spending time in my yard! 

I have loved becoming a member of the Bentley community and look forward to meeting more people and getting more involved!

Hailey Bevans

Registered Dental Hygienist / Myofunctional Provider

I am a Southern Alberta girl and after graduating from a technical school in Toronto I moved to Lacombe in 2016. I practiced as a Registered Dental Hygienist for 5 years and found a passion for everything functional I like to say!

I now mainly focus on helping people correct their chewing, breathing and swallowing patterns, called Myofunctional Therapy. This type of therapy is truly my passion as it deals mostly with the sleep medicine field, which is now overlapping with my other passion of Orthodontics. If I’m not trying to improve someone’s skeleton, or muscle movements, you will find me with any four legged creature I can find, or soaking up all things outdoors.

Taryn Soloway

    Registered Dental Assistant / Treatment Planner
Hi my name is Taryn. I moved to Central Alberta just over a year ago and am loving it. I am a busy mom of two little peanuts. In high school I took an interest in all things fashion, I was in the fashion industry for 8 years and still enjoy it! I decided to change careers after a visit to my childhood dentist when he suggested I should get into Dental Assisting as I always loved going to the dentist.
I enrolled and attended in an accelerated dental assisting program in Calgary and I have been a Registered Dental Assistant for 8 years now!  When I’m not at work you can find me spending time with my family, keeping up on all things fashion, and outside enjoying the sun!
