Dr.Navarro
Hi! I’m Dr. Flor Navarro, born and raised in Dallas, TX. My passion for dentistry began in high school when I attended a dental assistant class and fell in love with the profession. I graduated with my dental assistant license and began working at a young age. I earned a Bachelor’s in Biology with a minor in Business from The University of Texas at Dallas and continued my education at Texas A&M College of Dentistry, where I obtained a Doctorate of Dental Surgery.
I pursued this career because of the unique combination of science, art and the opportunity to educate and improve patients’ health and confidence. I remain committed to lifelong learning by attending continuing education courses to stay up-to-date on the latest techniques in dentistry.
Outside the clinic, I enjoy taking long walks with my Goldendoodles, Mando, and Korra. You’ll catch me watching movies, trying out new restaurants, or planning my next vacation destination during my free time. I am thrilled to be part of the Thrive family and cannot wait to meet you!

I want to ensure that every patient leaves my office feeling happy, informed, and confident about their dental health.
MY PASSIONS
I am a major fan of live concerts; I love nothing more than feeling the energy of the crowd and getting lost in the music! I also love hosting at our lovely home in Rowlett where my husband and I also share a passion for cooking and creating new dishes. Lastly, I always say yes to a night out with close friends to try new activities or restaurants.
