A Personal Pathway To Dentistry
As a child, Dr. Wilson Mattox knew what it felt like to hide her smile. Teased for her “bucked teeth” and struggling through countless dental visits, she spent many hours in the chair of the same kind, encouraging family dentist. His words of support planted a seed that would shape her life. As her own smile transformed, so did her confidence.
What began as insecurity ignited into a lifelong passion for dentistry, ultimately leading her to pursue a doctorate at the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, where she graduated with honors. Her academic excellence was recognized with awards for outstanding achievement in prosthodontics and oral radiology. Today, Dr. Wilson Mattox brings that same empathy and encouragement to every patient she meets, helping others rediscover the joy and confidence that come with a healthy, radiant smile.
