Amanda McMurphy's story comes from small-town America, an aspiring youth who sought to help others by taking care of them, nurturing them, and being a protector of her friends and family members. Always carrying the desire to help others and to be of service to her community, Amanda found her calling in dentistry, falling in love with the combined efforts of improving peoples' health, increasing their cosmetic sense, helping to build their self-confidence, and adding to their longevity, all in one.
A native of Meridian, Mississippi, Amanda McMurphy attended Meridian High School. Then she went on to earn an Associate Degree of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene at Meridian Community College shortly after. It was there that she discovered her love of dentistry.
Displaying perseverance and a strong work ethic, Dr. McMurphy worked as a dental hygienist in Starkville while completing a Bachelors of Science degree at Mississippi State University. Through that effort, she realized that becoming a dentist was not only her love, but her true calling, and so she went on to complete her education at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. There she earned a Doctorate of Medical Dentistry and received the Best of Prosthodontics award. Her prestigious and hard-won award was a testament to McMurphy's innovation in the design, creation, fitting, and cosmetics of dental implants.
Dr. McMurphy met her husband, Austin, while in dental school, and they married in 2015. Moving to Biloxi in 2016, Amanda started working for Broadwater Dental and was quickly put in charge of the Biloxi office. By February of 2018, Austin and Amanda welcomed their first born, a beautiful baby girl named Sloan. Just two short months later, Amanda purchased Broadwater Dental-Biloxi and proudly continues to serve her patients under her new business name, McMurphy Family Dentistry.
