Dr. Tate, a native of Elizabethtown, NC, attended UNC-Chapel Hill and received a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 1992. He continued on at the UNC School of Dentistry, graduating in 1997. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, North Carolina Dental Society and the Seattle Study Club. He has served as the Secretary, Vice-president, and President of the Tri-County Dental Society. Dr. Tate is also a Faculty Club member of Spear Dental in Scottsdale, Az. Where he typically attends 2-3 seminars per year. He joined Dr. Bill Salling in 1997 and they formed Salling and Tate.
Dr. Tate has earned a fellowship from the Congress of Oral Implantologist (FCOI) from his training in placing and restoring dental implants. He is trained in all-0n-4 and smartfix, implant-supported bridges for full mouth restorations. He is also trained to recognize and help treat airway issues that may contribute to sleep apnea.
Dr. Katlin P. Jameson, born and raised in New Bern, N.C., received a Bachelor of Science in Biology from East Carolina University, graduating magna cum laude. She then continued her education at East Carolina University School of Dental Medicine. After receiving her dental degree, Dr. Jameson sought advanced training through a one-year residency program at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Fayetteville, North Carolina. This training allowed her to gain experience providing advanced restorative and dental implant therapies to patients with complex medical and dental conditions. Dr. Jamesons treatment philosophy centers on providing individualized and compassionate care. Cornerstones of her practice focus on patient education and understanding what is important to each patient so that personalized treatment options can be offered that address their goals and help to achieve and maintain long-term oral health.
Dr. Jameson and her husband, Craven, live in Wilmington with their son, Callum and cockapoo, Ellie-Mae. When not caring for patients, she enjoys spending time outdoors, going to the beach, boating, and relaxing with family and friends.
As I celebrate my 53rd year in dentistry, 34 of which have been here in Wilmington, I wish to thank all of you for the privilege of being your dentist. Your trust and confidence in me and my team in providing for your oral heath care has been both professionally and personally rewarding. The relationships that have grown over the years with so many of you have been a big part of my life and are indelibly printed in my heart and soul. After much deliberation and three years of uncertain hesitation, its time to transition to the next chapter of my life.
My decision to retire is made much easier knowing that you, my patients, will be left in competent and caring hands. Many of you have already met my son, Dr. James Salling, whose been with the practice now for 15 years and Dr. Bryan Tate, my trusted partner of 23 years. They have been co-owners of the practice for eight years now, and both gentlemen are exceptional dentists who would be honored to continue the caring dentistry that each of you have come to expect.

Everyone was very pleasant. I wish I would have asked some questions about costs before I came. Surprised at how all the X-rays added up. Happy I got a discount for being referred, it made the bill a little more palatable.

From the front desk to the checkout, the staff in this office is extremely friendly. I first met with Tara, She made this dental coward very comfortable and explained everything that she was doing from X-rays to preliminary exam prior to my actual meeting with Dr.Jamie Salling. He took his time with me and explained in detail the work that needs to be done and how we need to proceed. This is an exceptional practice that I recommend highly!

Very receptive at entrance to business, checking in was easy and wait time was minimal. During the exam the dentist and tech listened and responded to my concerns. A comprehensive plan was set up to address my concerns. The practice is very professional and highly recommended.

I had a wonderful experience at my appointment. The hygienist and dentist were both kind, thorough, and provided the exact amount of care I wanted. They did not push extra services on me but were knowledgeable and wanted to establish an effective care plan. They came highly recommended by a friend, and I now see what the hype is about. Wonderful dentistry not hiding behind any bells and whistles, but instead good people and good work. Thank you!

Dr. Jamie Salling and his staff are absolutely wonderful! The work that is performed stands the test of time. If you are considering switching dentists, or you are looking for a new one, I highly recommend his office. There's a big difference between a dentist and a GREAT dentist, that's why I choose Salling & Tate!
