Valor Dental Mission Statement Forging joy and stronger communities by serving the spiritual, mental and physical needs of individuals and families. We Forge Joy by Serving in Justin, TX Dr. Greg Kiene and Dr. Chris Merkley believe tangible joy comes more from what you give than what you receive. At Valor Dental, our team measures our success by the legacy of service we give to our community. Patient interaction brings Drs. Kiene and Merkley a sense of joy, and the greatest compliment they can receive is the referral of their patients’ friends and family. Our history Chris and Greg met at Fort Leonardwood in Missouri. They were both serving on active duty for the US Army after their dental residencies. They both had large families, where their kids and wives bonded and became lifelong friends. Similarly, they worked at the same dental clinic with their respective offices right across the hall! This solidified a strong friendship that grew quickly, but it wasn’t until later that they realized they both had ambitions to become dental practice owners, and dreamed of moving to Texas to attain those goals. After realizing they had similar dreams, Greg decided to ask Chris where he wanted to start a practice. Surprisingly, they both had the same thing in mind. That’s when they knew they had to take the leap and go after their dreams of owning a dental practice, it was all fitting together too perfectly for them not to. This three-year journey to establish Valor Dental in Justin, Texas is the living embodiment of reaching their dreams. Over the years, Chris and Greg have grown closer as friends and continue to build a strong partnership in their business. They feel blessed to share similar beliefs, interests, careers, and dreams. They look forward to serving and forging joy in Justin, Texas for years to come. Becoming a patient at Valor Dental means you will be greeted with the hard work and dedication it took to create a practice that is built on friendship, mutual respect, and high-quality dentistry.
