Dr. Wade S Kifer, DDS

Dr. Wade Kifer
I was born in Missouri and lived there until about age 13, when I moved to Fort Smith, Arkansas. I believe it was there, that I first became interested in dentistry. I have always loved science and people, so dentistry was a natural connection between the two.
In 1995, I graduated from Southside High School and then enrolled in the University of Arkansas, where I graduated with a B.S. in biology in 1999. After college I was accepted into the University of Tennessee College of Dentistry and graduated in 2003. After dental school, I did a one year residency that specialized in and focused on high quality general dentistry (AEGD.)
While in Tennessee, I met my wife Claire while she was in Physical Therapy school. We were married in 2004, in her hometown of Dyersburg, TN and then moved back to northwest Arkansas. I worked in an orthodontic office and a general dental office in the area. In the summer of 2006, Dr. Broyles asked me to join him in his practice.
I absolutely …love dentistry and regularly take over one hundred hours per year of continuing education. This is five times the amount required by the state licensing committee. I am a member of the American Dental Association (ADA), the Arkansas State Dental Association (ASDA), the Academy Interdisciplinary Training (AIDT) and volunteer at the Fayetteville Free Health Center.
When not studying, I really enjoy spending time with my wife and our awesome new daughter, Kate. She was born March 20, 2008, and is an absolute joy to our lives. Besides family and church, we enjoy going to Razorback football, basketball and baseball games. Other hobbies or ours include hiking and canoeing.
