Meet Our Orthodontist

Dr. Kurtis Lightheart

Dr. Lightheart attended Brigham Young University where he completed a Bachelor’s degree in Zoology. He attended dental school at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry. In order to facilitate the financial demands of dental school, Dr. Lightheart decided to utilize the Health Professions Scholarship through the United States Army. He graduated in the top 10% of his class and then embarked on his Army career as a dentist.

Dr. Lightheart then went on to complete Orthodontic training at the University of Texas Health Houston School of Dentistry where he completed a residency and received his Certificate in Orthodontics. He also earned a Masters of Science in Dentistry degree, after which he was stationed at Ft. Bliss in El Paso, Texas.
