Dr Katie M. Flynn

Dr. Katie Flynn is dedicated to providing thoughtful, high-quality dental care while building lasting relationships with her patients. Her philosophy centers on creating individualized treatment plans that support long-term oral health, confidence, and beautiful smiles. Dr. Flynn believes dentistry should never be “one size fits all,” and she strives to deliver care that is both comprehensive and personal—treating every patient with the same respect and attention she would give her own family. Originally from Las Vegas, Nevada, Dr. Flynn earned her Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Nevada, Reno. After graduating from UNR, she gained valuable hands-on experience working as both a dental assistant and front desk receptionist in dental practices throughout Nevada. This early exposure to all aspects of a dental office shaped her appreciation for patient care, communication, and the importance of a well-run, patient-focused practice. Dr. Flynn went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine. During her final year, she was accepted into the highly selective Honors Esthetics Program—an achievement reserved for top clinical students with a strong aptitude for cosmetic and esthetic dentistry. This experience further refined her skills and reinforced her commitment to excellence and precision. Following dental school, Dr. Flynn returned to Northern Nevada, where she practiced alongside Dr. Newell’s previous partner in Sparks for three years before relocating to Dayton, Nevada. She is passionate about modern dentistry and has fully embraced digital technologies to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and patient comfort. Dr. Flynn remains committed to staying current with advancements in the field and continually elevating the standard of care she provides. Dr. Flynn is an active member of the American Dental Association (ADA) and the Nevada Dental Association (NDA), and she proudly serves as a delegate for the Northern Nevada Dental Association. Through her professional involvement, she continues to support both her patients and the dental community while being involved in her local study club. When she’s not in the office, Dr. Flynn cherishes time spent with her husband, their daughter, and their three crazy dogs who keep life fun and busy. She loves gathering with friends, getting outside to hike and explore Northern Nevada, and tackling home improvement projects as a family. Dr. Flynn is grateful to call the Carson Valley home and finds great joy in serving this close-knit community, building genuine relationships, and caring for generations of local families.
