Meet Our Hygienists

Nicole Osika Hygienist

Nicole Osika C.R.D.H.

Hi! I’m Nicole, a Dental Hygienist at Clearwater Dentist. I’m originally from Georgia but have been in this area since 2001. Shortly after moving to Clearwater, I started working in pediatric dentistry and fell in love with the field. Since then, I have worked in aesthetic, general, and biological dentistry.


I live in the Safety Harbor area with my husband, 2 kids, 2 dogs, a cat, and a fish. I spend a lot of my time on the baseball, softball, and flag football fields with my kids. I enjoy Pilates/yoga. My motto in patient care is thorough but gentle. My co-workers are like family to me. I am happy to have Clearwater Dentist as my dental home.


Taylor Cole R.D.H.

Taylor is originally from Pennsylvania and moved to Florida 6 years ago to pursue new opportunities. She graduated from the dental hygiene program at St. Petersburg College in 2021 with her Associates in Science.


Taylor has always had a passion for helping others and an interest in dentistry, which is what drew her to dental hygiene. In her spare time, Taylor enjoys traveling, trying new places to eat, and playing her guitar. She is very family oriented and visits her family in PA as much as possible.
