About Us

Dentistry Couple

Our 
Story

Drs. Antee and Tanner (formerly Daniel and Megan) first met while attending dental school in New Orleans and began dating in 2013. They married in 2016 and now share a beautiful life with their two wonderful children, Brooklyn and Beckett. Their family also includes Tucker, a charming hypoallergenic maltipoo who often makes appearances at the office as our unofficial therapy dog, and Spot, a beloved rescue dog.

​

Outside of the office, Dr. Tanner enjoys unwinding with jigsaw puzzles, has recently embraced the fun of mahjong, and cherishes quality time with her family. Dr. Antee, while still mastering golf, is passionate about grilling, reading, and savoring coffee and bourbon with friends and loved ones.

​

Dr. Antee and Dr. Tanner’s commitment to excellence, genuine care for their patients, and deep-rooted dedication to family and community make them the trusted professionals you're looking for to treat you and your loved ones.
