Meet the Lawson Dental Team

Dr. Michelle Redden

Dr. Redden grew up in Regina, Saskatchewan and graduated from the College of Dentistry at the University of Saskatchewan in 1994. She associated with another dentist for 9 months and then purchased Lawson Dental in 1995. She was a part-time preclinical and clinical dentist with students at the College of Dentistry for 11 years (until her family life got too busy). She practiced as a solo dentist for a few years until she wanted to start a family, so she brought in her first associate dentist. She had a beautiful girl in 1999, and then had twin boys in 2001. Dr. Redden is also a member of the College of Dental Surgeons of Saskatchewan, the Canadian Dental Association, and the Saskatoon Dental Society.

Dr. Redden has seen patients part-time since the birth of her children. When the boys were toddlers, she took a business management course for professionals. Her practice continued to expand and two more associates were added over the years. Dr. Redden is very excited about the new office, and has plans to expand to serve more patients more efficiently.

In her free time, Dr. Redden is busy following her children’s activities (including hockey, wrestling, ball hockey, cheerleading, and baseball), keeping physically active herself, and has started refereeing ball hockey. When she has time to herself, she likes to read and spend time relaxing at the lake.

Dr. Monica Taylor

Dr. Taylor grew up near Gravelbourg, Saskatchewan and graduated from the College of Dentistry at the University of Saskatchewan in 2002. She started practicing dentistry at Lawson Dental right after graduation and has been with us ever since. Dr. Taylor is a member of the College of Dental Surgeons of Saskatchewan, the Canadian Dental Association, and the Saskatoon Dental Society.

Dr. Taylor lives on an acreage and enjoys family life with her husband and two daughters. Her hobbies include any kind of craft, but especially knitting, gardening, and running.
