Dr. Janay PurdieBoard Certified Specialist in Oral Medicine!
Dear colleagues and friends,
On behalf of Oak City Oral Surgery, I am pleased to introduce Dr. Janay Purdie, board-certified specialist in Oral Medicine!
Dr. Purdie is a genuine native of North Carolina, having been born and raised in Greenville. She pursued her undergraduate studies at North Carolina State University and obtained her dental degree from the East Carolina University School of Dental Medicine. During her time at ECU SoDM, she developed a keen interest in Oral Medicine. Through her dedication and hard work, she was honored with the Oral Medicine Student Award in her senior year. Following her graduation from dental school, Dr. Purdie completed her specialty training in Oral Medicine at Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, previously known as Carolinas Medical Center (CMC).
Purdie is a part-time faculty member for dental residents at Atrium Health. Additionally, she is an active member of several professional organizations, including the American Academy of Oral Medicine, the American Dental Association, the North Carolina Dental Society, and the Old North State Dental Society.
Purdie’s clinical focus encompasses various areas, including the non-surgical treatment of TMJ disorders, orofacial pain, xerostomia (dry mouth), Sjögren’s syndrome, lichen planus, vesiculoerosive conditions, oral cancer, and the oral signs of systemic diseases.
When Dr. Purdie isn’t serving as one of the few oral medicine providers in the state, she embraces her role as a devoted wife and mother. In her leisure time, she finds joy in dance, being a life coach and motivational counselor, exploring new restaurants, and cherishing moments with family and friends.
Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and the surrounding areas, please join us in welcoming Dr. Purdie to Oak City Oral Surgery! She is eager to deliver exceptional care to your patients!
