Hinkle Family Dental is honored to support the upcoming Run4Elise, an event that holds a very special place in our hearts. Dr. Hinkle and his wife, Virginia, have seen firsthand the meaningful legacy it continues to build in memory of Elise.
Because of this connection, Hinkle Family Dental is not only serving as a sponsor—we are also inviting our patients, friends, and community members to join us by signing up for the race and participating as part of our team.
About Run4Elise
Run4Elise is a family-friendly community event benefiting the Swim4Elise Foundation and the Elise Cerami Memorial Scholarship. The event honors Elise’s life while raising awareness about water safety and funding swim education and lifeguard training programs.

We’re in the Final Round Thanks to You!
This month Dr. Hinkle and his wife had a great time attending Flamingo Bingo in support of the Southlake Chamber of Commerce. Hinkle Family Dental was proud to be both a table sponsor and a raffle sponsor for such a fun community event.
It was a wonderful evening filled with fellowship, laughter, and connecting with so many incredible people who make our community so special. We are always grateful for opportunities to support the organizations that help Southlake thrive.
Thank you to the Southlake Chamber for hosting such a fantastic event. We are already looking forward to next year.

Annual Appreciation Dinner
Dr. Roth Hinkle and his wife, Virginia Hinkle, founder of Dragons Care, were honored to attend and volunteer at a recent event celebrating the dedicated volunteers and principals of Carroll ISD.
Giving back is a core part of Hinkle Family Dental’s mission, not only through excellence in dental care but also through active involvement in local nonprofits and community initiatives. Because this organization is so close to their hearts, Hinkle Family Dental was proud to serve as the venue sponsor for this special annual appreciation dinner while also volunteering alongside the community.
