About Dr. Aniv Thanikella
Hi! I’m Dr. Aniv Thanikella. I believe a visit to the dentist should be a positive, supportive experience. I’m so excited to finally be bringing that belief to life as I begin my journey as a dentist here in the DFW community.
I’ve always viewed dentistry as a unique blend of science and art. My interest in healthcare began at the University of Texas at Dallas, where I majored in Neuroscience and developed a fascination with the connection between the brain and the body. I went on to earn my Doctor of Dental Medicine degree and a certificate in Public Health at A.T. Still University in Arizona. During that time, my clinical training took me across the United States, exposing me to complex cases in a wide variety of settings. Those experiences sharpened my skills and deepened my commitment to meticulous, patient-centered care.
Having grown up in the Dallas area, I am so proud to be back home. From day one, my goal is to bring healthy, confident smiles to our community. I treat every patient with the same attention and compassion I’d give my own family, because your care should always feel personal, never routine.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me planning my next travel adventure, hitting a workout class, or exploring new restaurants and international cuisines. Most of all, I cherish every moment spent with my family, friends, and my mini goldendoodle, Bruno.
