Bridgton Dental

About Us

Dr. Cloutier has been practicing dentistry in since 2005. He purchased the practice of Dr. Stephen Hatch in Bridgton in 2013 and has changed the name to Bridgton Dental Associates. Since then, Dr. Cloutier has made numerous upgrades to the facility such as more private and comfortable treatment rooms, new dental delivery equipment, and modern diagnostic instruments. Perhaps more importantly, he has changed the way that patients are cared for. He believes that listening to the patient and developing a treatment plan that truly works for the patient is really what it’s all about. Recently, Dr. Samantha LeDuc has joined the practice. With this addition, Bridgton Dental Associates can now offer more opportunities for patients to receive all of their dental care right here in Bridgton.

Our Dental Team

Dr. LeDuc

Owner

Dr. Samantha LeDuc was born and raised in Burlington, Vermont, where she spent her childhood hiking in the Green Mountains and swimming in Lake Champlain. While the rest of her family headed to the slopes on weekends, Dr. LeDuc could be found at the horse farm, nurturing a lifelong passion for horseback riding. A dedicated equestrian, she competed throughout New England during her youth.
Her first introduction to dentistry came in an unexpected way—through the owner of the horse farm, who was also a practicing dentist. She offered Dr. LeDuc a position as a dental assistant, a role she held for ten years and one that inspired her path into dentistry.

Dr. LeDuc earned her undergraduate degree in biology with a minor in chemistry from the University of Vermont. She then moved to Maine to attend the University of New England, College of Dental Medicine. While there, she discovered a true passion for working closely with patients, tailoring care to their unique needs and helping them make informed decisions about their oral health.
Her philosophy is simple but impactful: dentistry should be a collaborative process. Dr. LeDuc is committed to making her patients feel educated, empowered, and—most importantly—comfortable throughout their dental care journey.
Outside of the office, Dr. LeDuc enjoys gardening, baking, and spending quality time with her two sons, who keep her on her toes with sports and other activities. Now settled in Maine, she’s thrilled to be part of the community and looks forward to helping you achieve your oral health goals.

Julie enjoys building relationships with community members while helping patients meet their individual dental needs. Julie resides in Harrison with her husband, daughter, two stepdaughters, and their dog Pepper. When not in the office she enjoys spending time with family and enjoying all that the Maine outdoors has to offer.

Angela graduated from The University of New England in 2007 with her Associates Degree in Dental Hygiene.
