My name Is Tammy Smith. I am a dental hygienist and I have been a member of Terry and Beths team for 19 years now. Over these 19 years I have developed great friendships with every member of our team and I have been blessed to work with my best friend since 10th grade, Amy Toole; our 20 year veteran assistant. I have also built great relationships with my patients many of which have been coming to see me for the 19 years I have been here. I enjoy learning about my patients and watching their families grow. I live in Cave Spring Ga with my husband of 19 years and our 16 year old daughter. I enjoy running and most any activity outside. Last year I ran my first marathon which was a very humbling experience. I do have one tip to leave you withWhen it comes to your teeth floss the ones you want to keep
Im Mylinda, and Ive been working with Dr. Terry and Dr. Beth at Todayss dentistry for 14 years. The staff here is a close knit team and weve become lifelong friends. The aspect of my job I enjoy most is interacting with patients. Its not just about teeth, its about meeting needs and developing relationships within the community. I find I have at least one point of common interest with everyone I meet. My main interests are gardening and travel with my husband and son.
My name is April McDaniel and I have been a dental hygienist for 26 years. Ive been with the Slocums almost 15 years now. I am married with 4 children. I enjoy working out, date nights and traveling. I LOVE what I do, providing beautiful healthy smiles to the Cartersville community. I have the most wonderful patients whom I have developed friendships with and get so excited to see them on their next visit to catch up! We have an amazing work family here that I am blessed to be a part of.

I finally found "My Dentist." Had tried several dentists in the area, and a close friend told me to make an appointment with Dr Slocum. Everything was spotlessly clean, I was treated so nice, no sore gums, and everyone was very professional.

This was a consultation visit with Dr. Terry Slocum for my upper left central incisor (an auto accident in my teens had damaged the tooth and killed the root, so a root canal was performed. Later I had the tooth crowned, and about three decades after that had the crown changed for a more pleasing esthetic effect. So, the tooth has been through several major treatments. Then in January 2022 I saw Dr. Terry because the tooth had started to migrate downward, and although I had no pain I was concerned. Dr. Terry assured me that the tooth was healthy and offered two suggestions: 1) esthetic, or 2) leave it be. I chose to leave it because it was so minor. THEN, about two weeks ago I felt pain behind the tooth at the gumline and an abscess had formed. Back to Today's Dentistry. This time an Xray showed a more serious condition. The crown was failing and needed a minor surgical procedure. Dr. Terry sat down and patiently explained the entire problem, answered my questions and again gave me treatment options. I walked out with a referral to an endodontist, assured that I had the information necessary to make an informed treatment decision. Thank you again Dr. Terry Slocum.

Dr.Slocomb and all the staff are great. I was worried about my visit for days prior and it was unnecessary for me to do so. My visit was short and painless. I highly recommend them.

I made my first visit today and everyone was extremely nice and helpful. I met with Dr Beth for an exam and Dr Tammy for a cleaning and had a great experience. Their office is a little out of the way for me but it was worth it. I will be going back for all future dental care.
