Amy Baird

Clinical Supervisor of our team, which consists of making sure the clinical team flows smoothly and stays on time. I'm also responsible for ordering any and all supplies for our office while continuing to stay under a tight budget. This is in addition to my clinical duties as well.

My clinical job requires a lot of excellent time management skills. I'm certified in radiology to take xrays such as: Panorex, Periapical's and Bitewing Xrays. I place both anterior and posterior restorations, with anterior cases being my specialty, especially full mouth rehabs. It also includes taking vitals, going over treatment plans and finances with patients, packing cord or traxodent, core buildups. I am adept at making temporary crown(s) from start to finish and scanning for final restorations. I'm proficient in taking full mouth impressions (if needed) of both mandibular and maxillary jaws and pouring those models.

Whitening patients with either in office whitening or take home trays, seating permanent crown, bridges, bite guards and any removable appliance.

I assist in oral surgery, especially surgical implant placement and any and all extractions. I'm very familiar with root canal therapy, especially Wave One.

I'm also very experienced in Sure Smile or Invisalign Orthodontics.

I am also responsible for completing all clinical notes.

I moved to Lexington after I got married and worked there for a couple years because my husband was accepted into Law School at the University of Kentucky.

Job duties were the same as previous job at Family Care Dentistry.

After graduation, we moved back to our hometown.
