Dr David Taylor- Our Orthodontist

Dr. Taylor is a board-certified orthodontic specialist. He is the orthodontist at A Perfect Smile Orthodontics in McAllen, Texas, and will provide your treatment. He is the Rio Grande Valley’s premier Invisalign provider.

Dr. Taylor graduated from the University of Western Ontario’s School of Dentistry. There, he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) in 2005 and graduated with distinction. During his four years of Dental School, Dr. Taylor was awarded many distinctions. These included the Dean’s Honor List each year, the Dr. Gerald Z. Wright Entrance Award, the Dr. Sam Ioannidis Memorial Award in Operative Dentistry, the Toronto Academy of Dentistry Crown and Bridge Study Club Award, and the Ontario Dental Association Proficiency Award.

Following his dental training, Dr. Taylor did his orthodontic residency at the Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry. There, he earned his Certificate in Orthodontics in 2007. Concurrently, he completed a Masters of Science (MS) for his research in decalcification during orthodontic treatment. During this same year, the American Association of Orthodontists Annual Session selected Dr. Taylor’s research for presentation.

Orthodontist Certification

In 2007, Dr. Taylor also received a Fellowship in Orthodontics from the Royal College of Dentists of Canada. One year later, in 2008, he became a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics (board-certified). Significantly, two of the cases he presented to become board-certified were selected for the American Board of Orthodontics Case Display. He received this prestigious honor at the 2008 American Association of Orthodontists Annual Session.
Dr. Taylor is not only a member and Diplomate of the American Association of Orthodontists, but he is also a member of many more associations:

  • American Dental Association and Texas Dental Association member
  • Former President of the Rio Grande Valley District Dental Society.

Providing the Finest Orthodontic Services for McAllen

Dr. Taylor moved to McAllen in 2010 and opened his dream office, A Perfect Smile Orthodontics, to provide the RGV community with the best in orthodontic care. He is not only masterful with orthodontic braces treatment but also one of the most experienced Invisalign providers in the Rio Grande Valley.
 
Additionally, Dr. Taylor lectures and has served as an instructor for many events and orthodontic courses over the years. He truly enjoys teaching and sharing his knowledge with other orthodontists, orthodontic residents, general dentists, hygienists, and dental assistants. He also lectures locally to the Rio Grande Valley District Dental Society (with over 200 dentist members), the Seattle Study Club of South Texas, the Rio Grande Valley District Hygiene Society, and hygiene students at TSTC.
 
In his spare time, Dr. Taylor volunteers with the charity Dentists Who Care (of which he is a past President). He also enjoys reading and staying fit with regular workouts and spin classes. However, Dr. Taylor cherishes spending time with his family and friends most.
