Meet the Farless Dental Group Team
Get to Know Our Doctor and Staff
A visit to the dentist should feel like a visit with a friend. We strive to make every patient feel this level of comfort from the moment they step through our door to when they take a seat in their dentist's chair.
Our team looks forward to getting to know you, but while we're waiting for your visit you can get to know us.
Dr. Graham E. Farless, D.D.S.
Born and raised on his family's farm in Merry Hill, Dr. Farless learned many life lessons, including the importance of honesty, hard work, and determination. These early experiences in his life would go on to shape his performance in sports in high school as well as form the foundation for pursuing a career in dentistry.
Dr. Farless attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, completing a B.A. in Biology and later his Doctorate of Dental Surgery through the UNC School of Dentistry. The motivation behind this career choice was a deep desire to make a difference in someone's life by providing compassionate and exceptional dental care.
Throughout his career, Dr. Farless has continued his education by taking advanced courses in dental implant placement, bone grafting, CEREC crown technology, cosmetic dentistry, and orthodontic aligner systems—just to name a few. Additionally, Dr. Farless is a respected affiliate of numerous professional associations, including the following:
- American Dental Association
- North Carolina Dental Society
- Guilford County Dental Society
- American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry
- Academy of General Dentistry
- Fellowship in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists
- Cone Health Dental Service
In Dr. Farless's free time he enjoys spending time with his wife, Katherine, their three sons, and their two family dogs. They often spend time in the mountains of North Carolina hiking, hunting, fishing, and simply exploring everything this beautiful region has to offer.
Our Dental Hygienists
Jamie knew she wanted to be a dental hygienist after shadowing our very own Michelle Marine, who was Jamie's hygienist at the time. She has continued her education with courses in advanced ultrasonic instrumentation, advanced implant instrumentation, and oral pathology identification. Jamie has one son and a very sweet pit bull named Millie Moo. She enjoys hiking, traveling, and riding motorcycles.
Tammy graduated from Guilford Technical Community College and became a dental hygienist over 20 years ago. She has been with Dr. Farless for 10 years and feels just as passionate about helping patients now as she did on her first day. Tammy also has additional training in advanced ultrasonic instrumenting, oral pathology, smoking/vaping cessation support, and forensic odontology. Out of the office she stays busy with her teenage sons and travels as often as possible.
Addie graduated from Virginia Western Community College as a dental hygienist in 2017 and joined our team three years later. She is passionate about dental care and has additional training in sleep apnea management, pediatric oral medicine, periodontitis treatment, and oral cancer screening. Addie spends her time with her family and Hallie Jane, her golden retriever.
Jaclyn began her career as a dental assistant before completing her degree as a dental hygienist at Guilford Technical Community College. She has pursued further education by taking classes in oral pathology, root canal therapy, ultrasonic scaling technique, and more. Jaclyn is married and has two kids. When she has free time, you can find her with her family hiking, biking, and fishing.
