Taylor Coffin, DDS
Taylor Coffin, DDS - Pediatric Dentist

It may not seem like attending this small midwestern school was foreshadowing that she would end up in Arizona, but it was. Just as ASU started out as the Territorial Normal College, Wayne State started out as the Nebraska Normal School. So there you go, destiny!
Dr. Coffin had a more obvious destiny though, dentistry. She knew she wanted to be in medicine and help people.
She was drawn to dentistry because she liked the way it allowed her to work with her hands and blended science with art. She went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
Dr. Coffin went on to complete her residency in pediatric dentistry. She enjoys being a pediatric dentist because seeing her patients every 6 months allows her to really get to know them as they grow up.
In addition to taking care of her patients at Arcadia Pediatric Dental, she has dedicated herself to helping kids from less fortunate circumstances have access to quality dental care. She has made three dental mission trips to Haiti and another one to Honduras to provide free dental care.
Dr. Coffin is a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentists.
Favorite Restaurant Pitch. It is right down the street from the office. It was founded in Nebraska so in addition to great food, it reminds her of home.
Favorite Podcast Ologies with Allie Ward. It is a fun podcast where humorist Allie Ward asks very smart people very stupid questions. Always good for a laugh.
Fur Baby Dr. Coffin has an adorable pyredoodle named Lucy. Careful if you ask to see a picture, her phone is loaded with them.

"Friendly and very clean. My kid has never let himself take x rays and this time he did he was nervous at first but the staff was so patient that he let himself. Also I asked him what dentist he has like the best and he said, "this one because they let my parents go with me and it makes me feel safe." I also had my baby with me and asked if I can bring her too they were nice enough to be seen that same day at the same time as my son."
