Shelly F. Fallin, DDS
Hi, I’m Dr. Shelly Fisher Fallin; I grew up in Zachary and attended Zachary High School. After graduating from ZHS in 1991, I attended college at Louisiana Tech University from 1991-1994, graduating early. Following graduation, I attended dental school at The LSU School of Dentistry, finishing my degree in 1998. In February of 1998, Dr. Lance and I opened our private dental practice in our current location.
Dentistry was a profession that found me! Thanks to the influence of both Dr. Lance and my college advisor, I was encouraged to pursue the dental profession and am grateful for the opportunity to meet so many people. The best part of my day is being able to help someone feel better, look better, or take care of themselves. I consider it a privilege to be a dentist, especially in my hometown.
At Fallin Family Dentistry, we think of our patients as our dental family, so it’s important for me to make connections and create relationships with my patients.
In our office, giving back to the community is an integral part of our office culture. Annually, we support the Baton Rouge Food Bank, Toys for Tots, Operation Gratitude, and Zachary High School Athletics. The highlight of our year comes every February during Children’s Dental Health Month when we participate in “Give Kids a Smile,”… a national program to provide oral care to children.
I enjoy being active both in the field of dentistry and outside of the office. Some of my memberships are:
- American Dental Association
- Louisiana Dental Association
- Greater Baton Rouge Dental Association
- American Association of Pediatric Dentistry
- Academy of General Dentistry
- Interdisciplinary Study Club
Dr. Lance and I have 2 boys, Evan and Wade. In my free time, I volunteer with the Junior League of Baton Rouge, Phi Mu Alumnae of Baton Rouge, and my church. When not volunteering or working at the office, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, and cheering on the LSU Tigers.
