Dr. Megan Davidson earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Georgia and her dental degree from the Dental College of Georgia in Augusta in 2020.

Dr. Davidson is a member of the American Dental Association and the Georgia Dental Association and is passionate about promoting diversity, inclusion, and accessibility within dentistry and healthcare. Legacy Dental's philosophy centers on providing personalized and comprehensive dental care using conservative, state-of-the-art procedures. Their services encompass a wide range of general, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry options aimed at enhancing and restoring the natural beauty of their patients' smiles. Key services offered include preventative care (exams, cleanings, X-rays, oral cancer screenings, sealants, fluoride), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals), and cosmetic procedures (teeth whitening, veneers). They emphasize "dental health care" over "disease care," focusing on thorough examinations and patient education to prevent dental issues. The practice prioritizes patient comfort and aims to create a relaxing and positive experience, particularly for those who may feel uneasy about dental visits. They achieve this through a patient-centered approach, including amenities for long appointments like comfortable chairs, headphones, and mouth props, and offering nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for anxious patients. Legacy Dental utilizes modern technology, such as LCD monitors for displaying digital X-rays and intraoral images, to ensure patients are well-informed and understand their treatment options. They are also committed to strict infection control processes, adhering to standards set by the American Dental Association (ADA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Legacy Dental is dedicated to continuous education, with their team regularly attending dental lectures, meetings, and conventions to stay updated on the latest techniques, products, and equipment. They strive to build long-lasting, trusting relationships with their patients, valuing referrals and aiming to provide high-quality care that meets individual needs and budgets. The practice is in-network with many major PPO insurance plans and offers Care Credit for short-term, interest-free financing.
