Meet Dr. Evans

Your Pediatric Dentist at NCOSO

Dr. Tamara Evans is a dedicated pediatric dentist hailing from the picturesque foothills of North Carolina. Deeply rooted in her heritage, Dr. Evans takes great pride in her Cherokee Indian lineage, which has shaped her values of community, resilience, and compassion. As a mother to an adventurous son, she balances her professional life with active participation in his hobbies, whether it’s cheering him on during mountain biking trails or supporting him as he marches in the band. Her involvement in her church further reflects her commitment to family, faith, and community.

In her practice, Dr. Evans combines her deep passion for pediatric dentistry with a gentle, empathetic approach, ensuring that every child feels safe and comfortable during their visit. She is particularly skilled in working with anxious children and their families, drawing on her natural ability to connect and reassure.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Evans finds joy in the simple pleasures of life. Whether it’s getting lost in the warmth of a Hallmark Christmas movie or relaxing to the smooth rhythms of jazz music, she values moments of peace and reflection. Her commitment to lifelong learning is evident in her pursuit of additional training in orthodontic aligners, aiming to broaden her expertise and offer even more comprehensive care to her patients.

Dr. Evans’ blend of professional expertise, personal warmth, and dedication to her roots makes her a trusted and beloved figure in the lives of the families she serves.
