Meet Dr. Erickson
"Treat others the way you want to be treated, that's my philosophy." – Dr. Erickson
Dr. Erickson is a native of Kansas City, MO. As a young child, Dr. Erickson suffered from an abscessed tooth and was taken to the dentist by his mother. He had such a wonderful experience and was so amazed by how his dentist could get him out of pain without hurting him. Then and there, he decided he wanted to do the same for others and set about his journey to becoming a dentist.
After completing his education, Dr. Erickson moved to Dallas, TX, where he joined the practice that would soon become Erickson Dental. Shortly after moving, he met his wife, Teressa, and they now have three beautiful children, a son Blake and twin girls, Ashlyn and Peyton. Dr. Erickson has combined a range of dental expertise with his caring and empathetic nature to provide superior dentistry.
This is seen by his passion for learning new techniques and implementing new technology into our practice. Dr. Erickson strives to give you the safe, comfortable, and convenient patient experience you deserve.
When not helping you with your smile, Dr. Erickson spends a lot of time with his family. He also enjoys working out, living an active lifestyle, eating at the many restaurants around DFW, and watching sporting events, particularly Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Stars games!
