He is also a member of the Academy of General Dentistry, American Dental Association, and the American Dental Implant Association.
Dr. Baber and his two sons enjoy spending time on the family farm, traveling in their RV, and doing just about anything outdoors!

During this time, he developed extensive experience in surgical dentistry, with a particular focus on dental implants, root canals, and extractions. He completed advanced training through the Misch International Implant Institute and has placed over 4,500 dental implants.

In 2022, Dr. Maupin and his family relocated to Waco, Texas, to be closer to his wife’s family. They have loved becoming part of the Waco community. Outside the office, Dr. Maupin and his family are members of Harris Creek Church. Most of their free time is spent supporting their boys in sports and enjoying family life together.
