DR. AMANDA ELLING
Dentist
DR. AMANDA ELLING
Dr. Amanda Elling has been in East Texas since 2018 and is originally from Fort Worth, Texas, where she began her career in dentistry at the age of 19 as a dental assistant. She soon discovered her passion for helping people with their smiles and began her path toward becoming a dentist.
After graduating from the University of Texas at Arlington, she later received her DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) degree from Texas A&M University College of Dentistry. Upon graduation she received the Academy of General Dentistry Award, the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry Award, the General Dentistry Program Award, and the Warren Parker Community Dentistry Award.
Dr. Elling knew she wanted to practice dentistry outside of the larger cities where she could make a greater impact on her patients and community. She is committed to providing the highest quality dental care from resolving a toothache to creating a new smile. Dr. Elling believes in a patient focused environment where everyone is treated as family.
Dr. Elling is a member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, and Mommy Dentist in Business Group. She is also a Fellow with the Academy of General Dentistry.
Earning Fellowship takes dedication to dental continuing education (CE) beyond graduation. Only about 6 percent of general dentists in the U.S. and Canada are AGD Fellows. When you see a dentist with FAGD after their name, you can rest assured that they care about knowing the latest techniques and best practices in dentistry. AGD Fellows practice these techniques in a classroom setting multiple times a year — not every dentist does this.
To become an AGD Fellow, a dentist must:
- Complete over 500 credit hours of CE.
- Earn 350 of those 500 credits in live courses.
- Pass an exam equal in difficulty to board certification exams
In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her husband Cory, her two children Everleigh and Wyatt and chocolate lab Gus Gus. She enjoys cooking and traveling to new places.
Dr. Elling loves being in Elkhart and looks forward to helping her patients
improve their oral health, function, and smile.
