Dr. Conklin uses every day as an opportunity to help people change their lives for the better, whether she is getting someone out of pain or giving them a gorgeous smile. She enjoys building trusting relationships with her patients so they can work together to determine the best course of their care.Dr. Conklin was raised in a dental family (both of her parents are dentists), but she didn’t decide to go into dentistry until high school. She was always interested in healthcare, and she wanted to be able to give back to the community in some way. She knew that dentistry would allow her to do this, so she started her career by volunteering to assist on dental mission trips. Dr. Conklin is married to Kyle, and they stay very busy thanks to their twin boys and German Shorthaired Pointer, Belle. In addition to dentistry, her passion is serving and building up the next generation. She and her husband run an afterschool program called SHARPkids, and they are also very active in ongoing community reconciliation efforts.
