Meet Dr. McKenzi Taylor

Dr. McKenzi Taylor was raised in Kansas City, Missouri.  After graduating high school, she earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Northwest Missouri State University.  Following this, she continued her education to obtain a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Missouri- Kansas City. Dr. Taylor then moved to St. Petersburg, Florida, to complete an Advanced Education residency in General Dentistry with the University of Florida, the same residency for which Dr. Thatcher currently serves as an Associate Professor.  This residency focused on providing patients with comprehensive dental treatment and utilizing advanced technology in implant dentistry.

Dr. Taylor keeps up to date in dentistry through continuing education at both the national and local levels. She is currently a part of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, where she keeps up to date on the most recent technology in implant dentistry.  She is also a member of the local Hillsborough County Dental Association and Florida Dental Association.

Dr. Taylor has a passion for giving back through various charity organizations in her free time, including Florida Missions of Mercy and Team Smile.  She also enjoys spending time with her brother and sister-in-law, Jeremy and Ashley, and niece, Penelope, who moved to Florida from Missouri.  Being from Kansas City, Dr. Taylor is an avid Kansas City Chiefs fan but is slowly turning into a Bucs fan each time Tom Brady completes another touchdown pass.
