During the Fall of 2007, Dr. Carter enrolled in Dental School at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) located in Memphis Tennessee. Dr. Carter's education at UTHSC focused on the fields of periodontics, removable/fixed prosthodontics, restorative dentistry, and endodontics. While in school Dr. Carter also received a scholarship for his work in the management of orofacial pain.
After completing his degree in general dentistry at UTHSC, Dr. Carter was eager to give back to the community he grew up in and he moved back to Texarkana. Dr. Carter worked as an associate in private practice and at a children's clinic prior to entering into his own practice at Twice As Nice Dental. Consequently, he enjoys treating patients of all ages and has experience with a variety of procedures ranging from simple fillings to dentures. With his unique background, Dr. Carter knows that life can take many unexpected turns; and it requires hard work, commitment, and more than a little faith to achieve your dreams. As your dentist, Dr. Carter is committed to providing you with the best in personalized dental care by giving you a customized treatment plan for your optimal dental health. He and his staff make it their priority to give you the highest quality of dentistry in a friendly environment.
Dr. Carter has been married to his wife Manjula for almost 25 years and they have two children. His hobbies include designing and making electric guitars and reading to keep up with the latest in modern dentistry.
My background is in horticulture. Prior to working at Twice as Nice dental, I worked for the University of Arkansas for many years as a research scientist. Following that, I worked for the Dixon Gallery and Gardens in Memphis, TN, as their greenhouse manager. Managing a dental office is not that different from managing a greenhouse except that you don't get so dirty! I love keeping things organized.
Dr. Carter and I have been married for almost 25 years and have two children, Luke and Edie. We are excited to be back in Texarkana where Dr. Carter grew up and to be able to give back to the community here.
I was born and raised in Texarkana. I have a wonderful husband Rick of 27 years. We have three children, Adam, Chad, and Ashley. We've been blessed with four beautiful granddaughter's Abby, Bailey, Klara, and Reagan.

The best dentist experience I've ever had. Everyone from the front desk staff, to the hygienist (Melissa), to the dentist were nice people and the hygienist did a great job of alleviating my fear of the dentist while doing an amazingly thorough job cleaning my teeth. Highly recommend

Absolutely loved the staff and service! Like most of us, I dread going to the dentist. This place made it so easy!! Malissa explained what she was doing the entire time, made jokes and kept it so cool. I almost felt like I was hanging out with a friend. Dr. Carter and his team are actually TWICE AS NICE! This is the place I would take my kids, when we have some! Haha!
