Linda A Steele, DDS, Pediatric Dentist

Linda A. Steele, DDS knew as a little girl that she wanted to help others. Over the years, this yearning developed into a desire to help children. What better way to help a child than to provide them with a healthy smile? She recognized that through pediatric dentistry, she could educate parents and have a positive impact on a child’s overall health and self-esteem.

Dr. Linda received a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Texas A&M University in 1986, graduated from the Baylor College of Dentistry in 1992 and completed her residency in Pediatric Dentistry at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri. It was this hospital-based training that provided Dr. Linda with extensive experience in caring for a variety of children, particularly those with special needs.

With over twenty years of experience, Dr. Linda's practice is limited to dental treatment of infants, children and teens. Her specific interests are in the treatment of dental disease in the very young. She is on staff at the Texas Pediatric Surgery Center where she performs comprehensive total dental rehabilitation for children too young to undergo treatment in the office. Although this is rarely necessary, this treatment can transform a child’s life from one of pain and constant repeated dental visits to one of dental comfort and only routine dental hygiene care.

Early education and reinforcement is the key to a lifetime of good oral hygiene and a healthy smile. Dr. Linda strives to make every child's dental experience a positive one. She is dedicated to ensuring every patient receives the highest level of care in a gentle, reassuring manner in a non-threatening, kid-friendly environment. Through the use of the latest dental techniques and technology, she offers both restorative and cosmetic pediatric treatments. She urges parents to bring children in for a dental evaluation before their first birthday or at the sign of their first tooth. Early visits give both the child and the parent the needed confidence to start a lifetime of good dental habits.

Dr. Linda and her husband, J. Darrell Steele, DDS, MD, established Steele Dental Specialties, a combined Oral Surgery and Pediatric Dentistry practice in 2001. The couple resides in Coppell, Texas with their three children. She is a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the Texas Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the Greater Dallas Pediatric Dental Society, and the Southwestern Society of Pediatric Dentists. She is also a member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, and the Dallas County Dental Society.
