Dr Dominique Rivera

Dr. Rivera is a Lyon County native raised in Eddyville, Kentucky just 2 blocks from Lyon Family Dental. He graduated as Salutatorian from Lyon County High School in 2009. Dr. Rivera attended the University of Kentucky and graduated in 2013 cum laude and received Departmental Honors in Biology. He completed his doctoral studies at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry. Dr. Rivera continually seeks innovative ways to communicate with patients and break down barriers to ensure patients get the care they need. He is a passionate and dedicated dentist that focuses on improving the overall health of his patients by utilizing his expertise in oral health. His commitment to the community is second to none. Dr. Rivera and his teams have donated countless hours to veterans, schools, first responders, healthcare providers, and so many more. In addition, every year Dr. Rivera also gives away a free smile makeover to someone who is deserving and would otherwise not be able to afford dental care. He emphasizes “listening with two ears and one heart.” Dr. Rivera strives to make his office unique by providing exceptional and beautiful dentistry utilizing modern technologies all while maintaining an inviting, comfortable, and relaxed environment. I’m entering my 3rd year of practice after serving as Managing Clinical Director and Lead Dentist at a dental practice in Paducah, Kentucky.
