Kristin Herring, DDS
It is the mission of Dr. Kristin Herring and our team to provide members of the Hickory, Newton, and Lincolnton, NC communities with quality dental treatment in a caring and professional environment. To meet this objective, we strive to provide an open environment for patients to ask questions and ensure that patients have adequate information to make an informed decision regarding their dental treatment.

In addition, we eagerly seek to educate not only patients within the practice, but people within the community about matters that affect their dental health. We believe that maintaining good oral health is incredibly important, not only for your mouth, but for your entire body. We work diligently every day to educate our patients on prevention while providing comprehensive dentistry for patients of all ages.
Services
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
I get great enjoyment from my profession. I understand that going to the dentist for most people is not their most favorite activity, but I make every effort to treat people the way I would treat my own family. My goal is to make their experience the best dental experience they have ever had. One of the greatest parts of my day is interacting with so many people from such diverse walks of life.
Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, and high-quality dental care. We understand that you or your child may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while we provide the best possible care.
As a courtesy to our patients, we file most major insurance plans. We make every effort to understand your policy and communicate that effectively to you so you can make an informed financial decision regarding your treatment. However, there is no way that we can know every policy in detail, so we strongly communicate that an estimation of dental insurance benefits is an "estimation" and not a guarantee of payment.
Dentistry is the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of conditions, disorders, and diseases of the teeth, gums, mouth, and jaw. Often considered necessary for complete oral health, dental care can have an impact on the health of your entire body. A dentist is a specialist who works to diagnose, treat, and prevent oral health problems.

I just had my biannual cleaning and check up. The Dental hygienist, Natasha, is very sweet and did a fantastic job. Dr Herring can always be depended upon to be accurate, honest and thorough.

I want to start with when I made the appointment. The office help were very professional and extremely kind and considerate.The whole process was very pleasurable. Dr. Herring was kind and caring about my needs. She explained my x-rays and what could be done and what couldn’t. As a whole the whole experience was pleasurable. I would recommend them to anybody.

Dr. Herring has been our family’s dentist and friend for almost 15 years. Kristen and her team are fabulous! They treat each person with great care. They have been part of our family’s growth and know each one of us (8) personally. They all care greatly and provide wonderful dental and human care. Amber is the best dental hygienist I have ever had. It is more like a tooth massage than teeth cleaning.
