Having lived in this area all my life has afforded me
the benefit of a close family. I also enjoy the outdoor activities
that are available in this region. I love my job here at Dyersburg
Pediatric Dentistry and hope your visit is an enjoyable experience.
Pamela Taylor - Registered Dental
Assistant My husband
and I are lifetime residents of Dyersburg and are the proud parents of two
daughters, Hannah and Hayley who keep me very busy on my days off. I enjoy
working with children and especially like our spacious office facility
that makes it a pleasure to come to work. I have
been in dentistry since 1999. I am a registered dental assistant with
coronal polishing and nitrous oxide certification. I have worked for
Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry since May of 2003. My job here includes polishing
teeth, giving oral hygiene instructions when needed, assisting with
orthodontic patients, assisting in surgery and I also assist our surgery
coordinator with predetermination insurance information. I can
honestly say it is an honor to be a part of this team. We all work
together for the same purpose, to give professional, quality dental care
to our patients and have fun doing that. Working in
the dental field is rewarding in many ways, but when we have children who
leave our office happy or we have a resistant child whom we win over and
earn his/her trust while giving the dental care they need - THAT IS THE
GREATEST REWARD OF ALL!

Hello!
My name is Leah Pugh. I’m from the big city of Halls. I recently married
in November 2003. I’ve been with Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry since
February of 2004. I work as a Dental Assistant. As a dental assistant my

understand the importance of regular dental check-ups. I also explain the
correct way to maintain healthy dental hygiene in a way your child can
relate to. Our goal at Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry is to create a fun
environment for kids to come to and at the same time learn how to be
cavity free
Hi, my name is Stephanie Millican. I relocated to Dyersburg from Memphis
in April 2004. I have been with Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry since May
2004. I work as a Dental Assistant. My responsibilities are to welcome you
and your child back for the most comfortable visit possible. Sometimes,
the children are apprehensive about work being done on their teeth instead
of a routine cleaning. This, to me, is one of my most important roles, to
help them to remain confident and comfortable during their procedure. I do
this by explaining everything we plan to do that day in a way that they
can understand. I allow them to taste, smell and feel all the different
instruments and products we will be using that day. By doing this, leaves
no room for any unexpected surprises. Nothing is better than seeing them
boast about how easy it was and how good they did! That to me, is my
ultimate goal, a healthy mouth and my patient’s happiness!
Hello, my name is Gina Sampson. I have been a resident of Dyersburg since
July 2003. I relocated to Dyersburg from Colorado after I married my
wonderful husband. I have been with Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry since

sterilization it is my responsibility to be sure that all the instruments
that are used are all sterile and clean. 
I have 2 wonderful children and a great fiancé. My favorite hobbies are to
ride four-wheelers and plant flowers. I have been with Dyersburg Pediatric
Dentistry for a short time, but it is a wonderful place to work and I love
children. I have been registered with the state of Tennessee since 2006

with such knowledgeable doctors.
I am a Registered Dental Assistant and have been employed at Dyersburg
Pediatric Dentistry since October 2006. I am a resident of Newbern,
Tennessee. I attended DSCC and Tennessee Technology Center after
graduating form Dyer County High School in 2004.
My family and I relocated form Memphis 3 years ago in May. I have
a daughter named Hannah and a son named Nathan. I previously worked in a
workroom as a dental assistant at Dyersburg Pediatric Dentistry but have
recently received my license in coronal polish and have been transferred
to the hygiene department. I now have the opportunity to polish floss and
take radiographs to assist the doctors with establishing a treatment plan
for your children. I also have the responsibility of keeping you the
parent and you children informed of ways to help prevent cavities by
demonstrating and discussing proper brushing and flossing techniques as
well as crucial changes in your child’s diet to help maintain a healthy
smile. My goal is to answer any questions you may have and to be sure your
child has a better understanding of the importance of maintaining healthy
teeth and gums all the while with a smile on thi8er face. The number one
reason why I love where I work is that we all strive for one main goal and
that is to provide good quality care in a stress free environment. I truly
believe a child’s first experiences are crucial in forming positive
attitudes for future dental treatment on into adulthood. Fear is one of
the number one reasons adults, avoid dental treatment and this is our
opportunity to reverse the majority to a minority. I look forward to
seeing you and your children soon!
