Kelli Slate, DDS
FAMILY DENTISTRY
Early in her career, Dr. Slate made an important discovery. She was having one of her teeth repaired and lo and behold, the injection didn’t hurt. The dentist who treated her that day inspired Kelli Slate to provide the same skillful and compassionate care for her own patients. “I thought that would be a wonderful thing to do for people who shared my fear,” she says.
For Dr. Slate and her staff, the words “comfort” and “dentistry” go hand in hand. “People are looking for that extra touch of care and compassion,” says Dr. Slate. “They find it here.”
Located in downtown Lakewood in the historic Diener-Mills Building, Dr. Slate’s full-service dental practice provides the latest advancements in preventive, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry.
A Dallas native, Dr. Slate is as dedicated to giving back to her community as she is to caring for her patients. She offers free dental care to clients of Attitudes and Attire (attitudesandattire.org), a nonprofit agency whose mission is helping economically challenged women find jobs and attain self-sufficiency.
Dr. Slate and her expert staff provide a warm, friendly, and fun atmosphere that has inspired a loyal clientele since 1994. As Barbara Paulsen says, “Dr. Slate and the office staff are the best. I no longer dread going to the dentist!”
