Branden R. Ferguson, DDS
“I want my patients to know that the relationships that are formed over a “lifetime” of practice are very important to me. Continue to ask me questions, and I will always give you an honest and fair assessment of your dental needs.”
Dr. Ferguson has practiced as a local dentist in Bend, OR for 14 years. He grew up in Boise Idaho, where he received his undergraduate degree in biology from Boise State University and enjoyed being a member of both the football and wrestling teams. He then attended Indiana University for his dental training, in which he graduated with honors, and was a member of the National Dental Honor Society.
Following his completion of dental school in 2000, he moved to Bend with his wife, Jennifer, and three sons: Ben, Zach and Gabe.
His love of art and biology in college, and the love of fixing things with his hands led him to dentistry. Plus, the fact that he knew many dentists while growing up who seemed to enjoy what they did further encouraged him to pursue dentistry as a career.
When he’s not at the office, you’ll see him mountain biking, snowboarding, camping and fishing, as well as watching his sons compete in snowboarding and high school football and rugby.

Taylor M. Bybee, DDS
“For me, the best part of my job is to get to know my patients and their families, and have them leave here happy and satisfied. I advise each patient as if I was advising a family member and they value this.”
Dr. Bybee has been a Bend dentist since 2008. He graduated from Westminster College, Salt Lake City in 2003 with a biology major/art minor. Dentistry proved to be the perfect path because it combined both art and science disciplines and would allow him to serve and care for others. Following his undergraduate studies, he attended the University of Maryland’s Baltimore College of Dental Surgery and graduated in 2007. Following this, he completed his general practice residency and post-doctoral training at the Salt Lake City Veterans Hospital between 2007-2008.
He chose to become a local Bend dentist because of his acquired love of the outdoors and mountains when he grew up in Heber City, Utah. In his free time, you’ll catch him mountain biking, fly-fishing and skiing—and also creating the most beautiful pottery and ceramics.
