Kurt Calender, DMD
Skill and compassion go hand in hand when providing exceptional patient care. As a dental professional, Dr. Calender stays up to date on the latest advancements in dentistry in order to provide the most current treatment options for his patients. As a doctor, he recognizes that his patients are unique individuals who have placed a great deal of trust in him and his team, and that is just one reason why he values each and every patient relationship.
Dr. Calender graduated from UC Davis with his Bachelor of Science degree in Bacteriology, then went on to graduate with his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Oral Roberts University. He is a member of the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association, and the Academy of General Dentistry. He also sponsors his entire team to the annual Southwest Dental Conference hosted by the Dallas County Dental Society, and has enjoyed doing so for many years.
He started his dental career as a Navy dentist in San Diego attached to Camp Pendleton Marine base, but his wife Lynne got him to Texas as fast as she could. He has been practicing in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex for more than thirty years and they live in Keller; they are also long-time members of Gateway Church in Southlake. Their roots run deep here, with all three children graduating from Keller High School and then from UNT, one after a two-year stint at TCU (go Frogs!).
Dr. Calender enjoys fly fishing, cycling, rock climbing, and hiking, especially to fly fish in the Rocky Mountain backcountry with their sons each summer. And he has recently rediscovered a love of sailing, which began in his younger days in Santa Cruz on the coast of California. He and Lynne also enjoy their two grandsons in Colorado!
