General and Cosmetic Dentistry
Dr. Tai is one half of the dentistry power couple behind Murphy Dental and Implant Center in Murphy, Texas. She 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 currently teaches in the graduate prosthodontics program at the Texas A&M University College of Dentistry.

He is a Board-certified periodontist and implant surgeon who treats his patients with kindness and professional skill.

Dr. Tai and her team was amazing today! I had an appt set for 10 am got there early and was out in 30 mins. I had an impacted wisdom tooth under the gum. The entire team made me feel comfortable and relaxed (especially since I'm someone who doesn't like the dentist). I highly recommend this office for dental work. Thank you to the entire team!! I truly appreciate you guys!!

I highly recommend Dr. Ted Ling. He is, without a doubt, the BEST doctor -- periodontist, dentist, I have ever encountered. Even though I had very extensive work and surgeries, I had very minimal pain and absolutely no complications. All went so smoothly and my mouth is in great shape. I love all my implants!
- Eileen
