Dr. Lauren Little is a native of Wooton, Kentucky, and completed her undergraduate degree in public health from the University of Kentucky in 2016. She went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Kentucky School of Dentistry in 2021. After graduation, she completed two years of advanced training at the University of Kentucky Pediatric Dentistry Residency program. Dr. Little is a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Dental Association.

Her biggest influence to become a dentist is her mother, who practiced general dentistry for 29 years in Southeastern Kentucky. Dr. Little’s greatest joy in dentistry is creating a positive first dental visit for children and their families. Her goal is for patients to look forward to their next dental visit, just as she looks forward to seeing them! 

When Dr. Little is not at the practice, she enjoys anything active – running, lifting weights, hiking and taking her Goldendoodle, Jet, on walks. She is also an avid UK Wildcat fan.
