about our practice
DR. BRIAN HERRING DDS | BAYLOR COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY 2005
Dr. Brian Herring cut his teeth, so to speak, northwest of Lubbock on a family farm in Friona. Those lessons in hard work and perseverance propelled him to academic and athletic achievement at Texas Tech University, as a post-graduate student and then a faculty member at the Baylor College of Dentistry, in private practice, and as a husband and father.
Dr. Herring relocated his dental practice to Lubbock in 2013, purchasing the practice of highly respected, long-time dentist Dr. Ronald Phillips. Prior to moving back to the South Plains, Dr. Herring maintained a private practice in Frisco.
Since 2005, the practice has focused on dentistry for the entire family. He also served in a part-time clinical faculty capacity at Baylor College of Dentistry while in the Metroplex.
Professionally, Dr. Herring is a member of several organizations, including the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association, South Plains District Dental Society, and the prestigious Seattle Study Club. He is also fellow in the International Dental Implant Association. His post-graduate focus has been on dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, and complex restorative dentistry.
Dr. Herring earned his [dental degree] from Baylor College of Dentistry in 2005 in Dallas, using his elective courses to study dental implants, advanced endodontics, and forensic dentistry. He was a member of Xi Phi Psi Fraternity, the American Student Dental Association, and the International Association of Dental Research.
Dr. Herring received a bachelor of art’s degree in history, with a minor in biology and chemistry, from Texas Tech in 1997, meriting places on the Dean’s List, on the President’s List, in the Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society, and in the Order of Omega Honor Society. While there, he participated with several student organizations, including the track team, Kappa Alpha Order, and the Interfraternity Council. He earned his master’s degree in biology from TTU in 2001 with an emphasis in breast cancer research, concurrently working as a research assistant and a teaching assisting in human anatomy and physiology.
Dr. Herring is married to the former Lindley Douglass, a Plainview native and Texas Tech alumnae. They have two children, Cameron and Tess, and are active members of the First United Methodist Church of Lubbock. In their free time, they enjoy family get-togethers, spending time with friends, and cheering on the Red Raiders. They are so excited finally to be back in Lubbock and the South Plains.
