Carol K. Alvarado, D.D.S., P.C., Houston

Before she even looks in a patient's mouth, Carol Alvarado's goal is to create a warm, caring environment that elicits comfort—which shouldn't be surprising, since her office quite literally looks like a home. Inside, the 1992 University of Texas Dental School graduate integrates a natural, whole-body approach into her practice while providing standard dental services. Beyond those, Carol's specialties also include sleep apnea and bioesthetics, which is the process of duplicating natural tooth form and function.
