Chase Hardy, DMD
Pediatric Dental Resident, UT Health San Antonio

Dr. Chase Hardy is a pediatric dental resident at the University of Texas Health San Antonio, where he is pursuing a certificate in pediatric dentistry and a master’s degree in dental science. He received his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Roseman University of Health Sciences in South Jordan, Utah, where he graduated with honors and received multiple awards for research excellence, leadership, and patient-centered care.

Dr. Hardy has a strong academic background in both clinical care and dental research. His current master’s thesis, under the mentorship of Dr. Bennett Amaechi, investigates the remineralization efficacy of Cav-Aid, a novel fluoride delivery device designed to target interproximal caries. He has presented at national conferences including SCADA, AADOCR, and ADEA, and has published in peer-reviewed journals on topics such as fluoride use, oral health disparities, and clinical trial recruitment.

Beyond the clinic and lab, Dr. Hardy is deeply committed to education, community service, and mentorship. He has served in leadership roles in Give Kids a Smile®, mentored predoctoral students, and helped launch the Orthodontic Interest Group at Roseman University. Fluent in Spanish, he has provided outreach and oral health education to underserved communities in both Utah and Philadelphia.

Following graduation in August 2025, Dr. Hardy plans to return to his hometown of South Jordan, Utah, where he will practice as a full-time pediatric dentist. His long-term goals include integrating minimally invasive pediatric care with patient education and community outreach, while also pursuing opportunities in teaching, public health, and real estate investing. He is a proud husband and father of three young boys and is driven by his passion to make pediatric dental care more accessible, effective, and family-centered.
