The concern of our dental hygiene team is protecting the oral health of our patients. Through ongoing education and cross training, they compliment and support Dr. Murphree’s techniques in both restorative and esthetic dentistry.

on the Murphree preventive team since 1987.

of computer imaging, patients can see a preview of what a new smile design might
look like.
