Dear Loyal and Valued Patients,

With great excitement, we announce the addition of Dr. Virginia Young to our team at Nora Dental Associates! After an extensive two-year search, we have found the ideal individual who shares our commitment to delivering top-tier dental care and prioritizing the needs of our patients. Dr. Young's ethical integrity and conservative approach to dentistry align perfectly with the practices and procedures of Dr. Pate and our team.

Dr. Young brings ten years of private practice and advanced residency experience to Nora Dental Associates, along with hundreds of hours of continuing education. Additionally, she gives back to the field by teaching clinical dentistry part-time at the Indiana University School of Dentistry.

Her journey in dentistry has been shaped by a dental injury and motherhood. Having experienced dental trauma in high school, with her front teeth knocked out in a sports accident, she understands the anxieties and fears associated with dental treatment. As a mother of three children, she has learned invaluable lessons in patience, compassion, and empathy, all of which are integral to her dental practice.

Outside the office, she enjoys spending time with her family, riding bikes, camping, and maintaining an active lifestyle.

Together, Dr. Young, Dr. Pate, and the rest of our team are committed to delivering high-quality care tailored to your needs. Whether you're visiting us for a routine check-up or seeking treatment, we are here to support you every step of the way.

We are excited to partner with you on your journey to a healthy, happy smile. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help you smile brighter!

Warm regards,
Kristen B. Pate, DDS
Virginia Young, DDS
