Meet ouR dental team
Dr. Jenny C. Tai
Dr. Tai received her periodontal prosthesis certificate from the University of Pennsylvania. The four-year, dual-specialty program combines multiple disciplines, making her adept in cosmetic, restorative, periodontic, and implant dentistry. She is one of only a small number of dentists around the world who has completed such a program.
Dr. Tai uses her advanced training to successfully treat patients with needs ranging from basic exams and fillings to full-mouth reconstructions.
While sharing her knowledge with the next generation of dentists, Dr. Tai was named “Best Teacher” by the Department of Periodontics at the University of Pennsylvania. She also served as adjunct assistant professor in the graduate prosthodontics program at the Texas A&M University College of Dentistry.
Dr. Erica Y. Chan
Dr. Erica Chan attended the University of California, Davis and graduated with a bachelor of science in Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior. She was the recipient of the Regents Scholarship - the most prestigious scholarship awarded to undergraduate students by the University of California.
Following her undergraduate education, Dr. Chan attended Midwestern University in Illinois, where she obtained her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree and graduated top of her class. Dr. Chan practiced in Indiana before moving to North Dallas with her family and called it their new home.
Dr. Chan believes that great clinical outcomes begin with good communication and patient education. Her goal is to provide ethical and quality dental care in a comfortable environment for patients. Her compassionate nature and excellent clinical skill have won the heart and respect of patients and colleagues.
As a general dentist, Dr. Chan takes a special interest in clear aligner treatments and digital dentistry. She also devotes hours on continuing education each year to stay up-to-date with the latest dental technology in order to provide patients with the best care possible.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Chan enjoys traveling and spending time with her husband and toddler son. She has visited 17 countries so far and can’t wait to explore more places around the world with her loved ones.
Dr. Ling is Dr. Tai’s other half and the other dental professional behind Murphy Dental and Implant Center.
He is a Board-certified periodontist and implant surgeon who treats his patients with kindness and professional skill.
Dr. Ling and Dr. Tai have been a team since dental school. While Dr. Tai was training at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Ling studied for his Certificate in Periodontics there too. Upon graduating, Dr. Ling received the Director's Award for outstanding clinical and academic performance and dedication to patient care.
