Passionate Dentist in Fort Worth
Get to Know Dr. Kelly Salazar
Dr. Salazar became a dentist because she knows firsthand what it feels like to go without dental care. Growing up in a low-income family, she rarely saw a dentist. But as she got older and finally received the treatment she needed, the boost to her confidence was life-changing. That experience opened her eyes to how transformative dentistry can be, and it inspired her to dedicate her career to helping others feel that same sense of pride and self-assurance.
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
After graduating from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Dr. Salazar completed her dental education at the Texas A&M School of Dentistry. Since then, she has taken dozens of hours of continuing education dedicated to services such as veneers, oral surgery, endodontics, composite restorations, and dental pathology. To stay at the forefront of her field, she is also a member of the American Dental Association and Texas Dental Association. Always eager to help, she is a frequent volunteer at Mission Arlington and the M.C. Cooper Dental Clinic.
Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?
Married with one son, Dr. Salazar’s hobbies include photography, trying new foods, and dancing! She is fluent in English and Spanish, so she’s happy to conduct appointments in whichever language is more comfortable for her patients.
