What I enjoy most about dentistry is when I’m able to help patients overcome their fear of getting dental work done.
Dr. Christen Kartaltepe grew up in the small town of Longview, TX. She is happily married and a proud mother of two beautiful girls.
She moved to San Antonio to pursue her dental degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center of San Antonio. She has been practicing dentistry for more than 12 years now.
Dr. Kartaltepe’s kind and gentle personality make her an outstanding dentist and a patient favorite. She strives to provide excellent care and guidance, so all her patients feel empowered to make decisions about their dental care.
While I worked as a software developer, I spent a lot of time researching other careers that would be a better fit for me. I chose dentistry because it requires a unique combination of scientific knowledge and artistic ability. It also allows me to work with people on a personal level to help them improve their lives and health.
My family enjoys hiking, swimming, and playing board games. I truly enjoy rowing on Lake Sammamish in the early morning hours several days a week.
