🌮 A little Taco Tuesday with Dr. Dunham and our fabulous FIVE-STAR Williamsburg team! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We’re so thankful for all of the amazing 5-star reviews this team continues to receive and even more thankful for their dedication to our patients and each other.

One of our newest patients recently shared:

⭐️ “ I was very happy to get a new-patient appointment in July 2026 at this practice after my previous dentist ceased operating last year. I was extremely impressed with everyone I met; including Carter at the reception/scheduling desk, a very thorough teeth and gum analyses conducted by Christina, and close-out inspection & recommendations by the doctor. Equipment & technology being used appear to be very modern and top-notch, and the overall professionalism which the staff demonstrated is excellent. “⭐️

We couldn’t agree more! So proud of our Williamsburg team and the five-star experience they continue to provide. 🌮🙌

✨ Help us welcome Dr. Dinora Quintero to Elrod & Dunham Dentistry!

We’re excited to welcome a talented new provider whose international training, clinical expertise, and patient-focused approach make her a wonderful addition to the E&D family!

Inspired by her mother, a dentist, and her father, a physician, dentistry has been part of her life from an early age. Her educational and professional journey has taken her across three countries; Venezuela, Colombia, and the United States.

🎓 She earned her first dental degree from the University of Los Andes in Mérida, Venezuela, graduating summa cm laude, before completing a three-year postgraduate specialty program in Orthodontics at Universidad El Bosque in Bogotá, Colombia. She later continued her education in the U.S., earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry.

What she loves most about dentistry is building meaningful relationships with her patients, listening to their goals, and helping them feel comfortable and confident in their smiles.

Outside the office, she loves spending time with her husband and two children, exploring new places, getting creative with crafts, and hanging out with the family dog, Wh**ky. And as a proud Venezuelan, she admits she has a serious weakness for a good arepa, and is always ready to debate the best filling! 😊

We’re so excited to have her expertise, creativity, and passion for patient care at Elrod & Dunham Dentistry. Please join us in giving her a warm E&D welcome!

🦷 Please join us in welcoming Dr. Noah Taylor to Elrod & Dunham Dentistry! 🎉

We’re excited to have Dr. Taylor joining our team at our new Carytown location!

Dr. Taylor’s interest in dentistry began as a junior in high school after attending a summer program at VCU School of Dentistry. He loved the experience so much that he knew dentistry was the path for him and he never looked back!

🎓 A little about Dr. Taylor:

⭐️Virginia Tech — B.S. in Biology & Psychology- Go Hokies!
⭐️Harvard School of Dental Medicine
⭐️General Practice Residency at UVA Medical Center
⭐️Conducted research at Boston Children’s Hospital focused on preventing cavities in primary teeth
⭐️Regularly volunteered at the ACTION clinic, providing care for pediatric patients

For Dr. Taylor, dentistry is about more than teeth. He is passionate about creating a sense of belonging with his patients and helping them better understand the connection between their oral health and overall health.

Outside of the office, you can find him cooking, skiing, playing pickleball, or perfecting his pour-over coffee. ☕️

📝And here’s a fun fact: Dr. Taylor says he’s been to every coffee shop in RVA! Be sure to ask him which one he thinks is the best. 😉
