Dr. Day graduated from the University of North Carolina School of Dentistry in 2000. Prior to dental school, she attended the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill for undergraduate studies. She was in practice as a dentist in the Research Triangle Park area from 2000 until 2005, when she moved back to Morehead City to open her current practice.

I grew up in the Charlotte, NC area. We moved to this beautiful area in January 2007. My dental hygiene degree was obtained through Central Piedmont in Charlotte, NC. My husband, Paul, and I have two boys, both married. The oldest one lives here with his family and the youngest is still in Charlotte with his family. We have 3 grandchildren, one boy and two girls.
Working for Dr. Day is my dream job. It is a true gift! Our patients receive the highest standard of care,which means my hygiene skills and knowledge are always being updated with the newest dental techniques and skills. I can then share this with my patients to give them better dental health opportunities and care.
I grew up on Cedar Island, NC (the beginning of Highway 12s Gateway to the Outer Banks) and now live in Marshallberg.I am a graduate of Coastal Carolina Community College majoring in Dental Hygiene.My passion for dental hygiene allows me the opportunity to educate my patients about the importance of why their oral care is of utmost importance to their overall health. I enjoy helping patients build their confidence by achieving and maintaining a beautiful smile. Dr. Days passion for patient education (along with team education) allows us to provide each patient with the time and service they deserve.
I am married to George and we have a daughter Chelsea who is currently attending college. We alsohave a Chow/Shepard rescue dog Chowder Clam. In my spare time I enjoy walking, yoga, crochet, traveling, and anything related to the beach or salt water.
I attended Craven Community College and completed the DANB Dental Assisting program in 2004. I am originally from Havelock/Cherry Point, NC. After living in Carteret County for 15 years, my significant other, Jeff, and I recently bought a home back in our hometown. I have a beautiful daughter, Adrian, who is currently in nursing school. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, fishing, and cooking.
The first Hinman meeting was held in 1911 by Dr. Thomas P. Hinman and was considered to be the first clinic strictly for serious-minded educational purposes. Dr. Hinman believed strongly in the individuals contribution to dentistry.
The meeting developed a reputation for devotion to detail and hospitality that continued to grow through the years with every meeting. These qualities are represented in the motto: Devotion to detail is the secret of success.
Today, the focus is still on providing the best possible continuing dental education, not just for the dentists but also, the whole dental team. The program addresses the needs of the general dentists, specialists, hygienists, assistants, front office staff and students.The Hinman Dental Society today is comprised of 750 dentist members, primarily located in metropolitan Atlanta. One of the primary membership responsibilities is volunteering service during the meeting each year. This service enables the reputation for unparalleled hospitality to continue. The combination of outstanding education and hospitality ensures the position of the Hinman Dental Meeting as one of the top dental programs in the country.

I've never been more comfortable in a dentist's office in my life until my first appointment with Dr. Day! Best experience ever!

Wow, they are truly awesome! I've been to quite a few dentists but they are BY FAR the most thorough, professional and polite I've been to thus far.

I usually have major anxieties about going to the dentist, but Ms. Rhonda Brown (my personal hygienist), Dr. Day and her other staff members make my visits a breeze. They concentrate on connecting with you and making you feel comfortable rather than just processing you as another patient.. I love the office and have had a *positive* and -happy- experience every visit. They offer individual advice and cater to your specific needs. Ms. Pam is an exceptional receptionist and goes out of her way to help schedule you whenever you need to pop in or just for a checkup. 10/10 would recommend this wonderful group of women to trust.

Couldn't be nicer folks anywhere! Atmosphere is most comfortable for those of us who have had awful experiences when younger. Professional office and always good care. I trust all of them!

My experience at Dr. Day's office was outstanding. All of the staff was polite and professional. My hygienist was very thorough and explained to me what she was doing and why, which I really appreciate. Dr. Day and I discussed my treatment plan and best practices for preventative care. Overall, they take "going to the dentist" out of going to the dentist and ensure that it is a positive experience.

I hate going to the dentist, but I love Dr. Day! The staff is professional, cheerful and fun, and Dr. Day always takes the time to explain my options and show me exactly what is going on from the x-rays. I hope I never have to move, because I know I'll never find another dentist like her!

EMERGENCY FRIDAY EVENING....top denture broke in half....Dr Day and her staff were able to squeeze me in on Monday morning to get my denture to the lab by noon so I could pick up by 5pm. They were awesome. Thank you ladies. Love, love the atmosphere. Everyone is always laughing....they are fun, nice and take the time to answer any questions or concerns that you may have with your problem or with just your mouth in general. Highly recommend this family dentistry practice if you are new to the Moorhead City area or looking for a new dentist.

Dr. Day and her staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable in the field of dentistry. It is a pleasure to go to the dentist. They geniunely care about their patients and I often find myself lingering after the appointment is over just to chat with them. Thank you Dr. Day for creating an environment that is comfortable and enjoyable!
