I’m Dr. Marc Mercier and I would love to welcome you to my practice!

​

Whatever your dental needs are, Mercier Dental is here to help. I am a member of the American Orthodontic Society, the American Dental Association, and the Tri-Lakes Study Club.  “My favorite part of dentistry is the relationships built with patients. The smile transformations, the patients that turn into family, and our family established practice is the reason why I became a dentist.” Patients will see Dr. Mercier for a host of reasons, including teeth bonding, broken teeth, bruxism, sensitive teeth, Invisalign, Botox, and plaque buildup.

Dr. Lauren Phillips is a graduate of The University of Tennessee College of Dentistry where she also served as the President of American Student Dental Association.

​

“I became a dentist because I have always loved helping and getting to know others, and dentistry is the perfect way to do that. There is no better feeling for me than seeing a patient grin from ear to ear after you’ve helped them out! I have always had a interest in science as well as art, and dentistry is the perfect combination.​ I went to ole miss and am so happy to be back in Mississippi! I love being social but also love chilling with my husband Bridges and our two fur babies. I love tennis, painting, cooking, and going to the lake and the beach.”

​

​Dr. Phillips looks forward to addressing all of your dental needs. She is passionate about helping patients improve their oral health and achieve a beautiful smile. Her attention to detail and her comforting personality will put a smile on your face!  Dr. Lauren Phillips is thorough, precise, and FUN.

Some of Dr. Phillips accolades include: President of American Student Dental Association (ASDA), Doris Costello Bowyer Memorial Scholarship, American Association of Dental Research Chapter Award, Member of Imhotep Society, Member of Xi Psi Phi Fraternity, Volunteer with Remote Area Medical.

“Coming home to Mississippi has afforded me a lot of great opportunities with people like Dr. Mercier who I have looked up to for a long time. I am looking forward to working Dr. Mercier, and Dr. Phillips and learning with them moving forward. I am passionate about helping patients improve their oral health and achieve a beautiful smile.  When people ask me why I enjoy being a dentist I was drawn to dentistry because I enjoy helping others, working with my hands, and using different techniques to achieve the most optimal outcome for the patient. I find dentistry exciting because it challenges me to think creatively and ultimately produce the best outcome for the patient. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing someone who is thankful for the dental care provided.”
