Dr. Alexxa Facio, DDS
Dr. Facio’s journey into dentistry began at the age of twelve when she had the unusual urge to clean her sister’s brackets with a bristle brush. That curiosity grew into a true calling after shadowing two compassionate dentists whose patient care and dedication deeply inspired her.
She was drawn to the creativity, problem-solving, and meaningful relationships that dentistry fosters, ultimately deciding to pursue it as her lifelong career.
Dr. Facio is a proud graduate of the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Class of 2020, where she received a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences and a Cultural Competency Certificate in Spanish. She received her Doctorate of Dental Surgery at Texas A&M College of Dentistry.
Throughout dental school, she remained deeply involved in community outreach, participating in service events such as Extraction Day at Mission Arlington, Texas Mission of Mercy (T.M.O.M.), Remote Area Medical (RAM), and volunteering at her school’s community clinics during holiday breaks.
She also had the unique opportunity to serve abroad on two mission trips—one to Jamaica and another to Burundi, Africa. These experiences have shaped Dr. Facio into a compassionate provider who aims to put her patients’ anxiety at ease and has their best interests in mind at all times.
She is especially passionate about empowering her patients through education and creating a safe, welcoming environment, particularly for Spanish-speaking individuals, as she is fluent in both English and Spanish. Dr. Facio finds deep fulfillment in giving back to the community, building trust with her patients, and helping them feel heard and at ease during their dental visits.
Now back in her hometown, Dr. Facio is honored to serve the people of East Texas. She is committed to providing exceptional care, staying current with the latest dental technologies and techniques, and continuing her mission to make a positive impact both locally and globally.
Outside the office, Dr. Facio enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and her five-year-old son, Sammy. She’s an avid fan of true crime and loves reading the latest thrillers and mystery novels. She also looks forward to continuing her participation in dental mission work in the future.
