About Us

With over 100 years of combined dental experience, we partner with patients on a daily basis to help them achieve the self-confidence they desire. Read on to find out more about the doctor and his staff.

Jerry Dunn, DDS

Dr. Jerry DunnAfter Dr. Dunn graduated from Abilene Christian University, he received his dental degree from Baylor University College of Dentistry. His mother is a professional artist, which Dr. Dunn feels gave him a true interest in pursuing the cosmetic aspect of dentistry. His father was a minister who instilled in him an interest in helping people. Dr. Dunn's love of cosmetic dentistry is a combination of artistic talent and a genuine desire to help patients love their smile.

Dr. Dunn is a true advocate for continuing his education beyond dental school because the field of dentistry is always changing. He far exceeds the state requirement of 12 hours of continuing education each year, often taking 80 hours or more.

Dr. Dunn is a member of the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association, Dallas County Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry and American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. In fact, he is one of the charter members of the Texas Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

His wife Connie, a talented interior designer, was born and raised in Irving, and both are very involved in their community's church and school activities. Together they have four children; Brent is married and lives in Plano, Chelsa lives in Chicago with her husband, Natalie graduated from ACU and was married in May 2003, and Taylor who just left for college at Baylor University.

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Dunn and his family love the outdoors. They often spend time fishing, hunting, hiking and four-wheeling. Dr. Dunn also enjoys photography, cooking, shopping at Tommy Bahama, and making his staff laugh.
