At the end of last month, Dr. Taylor volunteered at another dental clinic in Hickory, NC.  Check out this short video showing scenes from the clinic as well as a couple of interviews from the dentists donating their time and service.  http://www2.hickoryrecord.com/news/2012/jul/30/1/free-dental-clinic-serves-hundreds-in-hi-72649-vi-49852/

New London Clinic

The doors opened... and the doors closed.... quickly!  By 7am the doors to the MOM clinic in New London, NC had closed for receiving patients.  Dr. Taylor attended both days of this very successful MOM clinic.  He estimated about 550 patients treated.  To help relieve an over booked oral surgeon, Dr. Taylor ran three dental chairs at one time Saturday afternoon.  Earlier that morning, he spent time overseeing dental students. 

It was a busy clinic with lots of success.  Perhaps the highlight if this particular clinic was the music!  Our very own, Isabel Taylor (married to Dr. Taylor), delighted the many patients and volunteers by singing during the clinic time!   What a special treat for all!

Next stop.... Reidsville, NC clinic.

New Bern Dental Clinic

This weekend Dr. Taylor volunteered time at another Missions of Mercy Dental Clinic in New Bern, NC.  The clinic helped over 500  people that may not have been able to obtain care otherwise.

Look who joined our office!

We are happy to announce that our office has another team member.  Dr. Taylor's new Havanese puppy, Pepper, has been accompanying him to the office lately.  Born on January 31, 2011, Pepper is about 8 months old and was found through a rescue organization.  He was not treated so well during the first few months of his life, so he is a bit shy around people.  With some time, we are all hoping he will get used to all the "ins and outs" of the office! 

Congratulations to Dr. Taylor!

Dr. Taylor was inducted as a Fellow of the International College of Dentists at its 82nd Annual Convocation in Las Vegas on October 10, 2011.

An honorary organization for the recognition of outstanding and meritorious service to the profession and community, the College presented Dr. Taylor with a membership plaque, a gold lapel pin and gold key symbolic of this Fellowship for conspicuous service rendered in the art and science of Dentistry.

In an impressive cap and gown ceremony, almost 300 dentists from the US were inducted into the College at this year's ceremony witnessed by hundreds of members and guests.  The College, with representative chapters in more than 80 countries, has over 11, 000 members, including about 6,500 in the US.

Congrats to Dr. Taylor!
