Dr. Kelsi Parker
DDS
Dr. Parker was born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, where her interest in dentistry began early—well before her own era of tooth-fairy visits. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Public Health from the University of North Carolina Wilmington before completing her Doctor of Dental Surgery at Indiana University School of Dentistry.
“As long as I am practicing dentistry, I am also always learning. When you know better, you do better; and I always want that for my patients!”

In the office
After dental school, Dr. Parker quickly discovered a passion for working with children. That interest naturally led her to advanced education in treating tethered oral tissues and sleep-disordered breathing. Driven by a deep curiosity and a desire to understand the “why” behind symptoms, her approach to dentistry extends beyond traditional care. She focuses on root causes, helping patients breathe well, grow well, and age well through thoughtful, airway-centered treatment.
Outside the office
Dr. Parker enjoys spending time with her family and giving back to the community whenever she can. She and her husband have a son and a spirited weenie dog named Mustard. Together, they stay active in their local church and love finding excuses to be outdoors.
