Meet Your McKinney Dentists: Drs. Leday and Holliday

At McKinney Dental Wellness, we believe that a healthy smile is about more than just teeth. It’s about taking care of the whole person—mind, body, and mouth. That’s why we’re excited to introduce you to our dedicated dentists, Dr. Julia Leday and Dr. Kylie Holliday. With their expertise and commitment to holistic care, our team aims to help you achieve optimal oral health while supporting your overall wellbeing.

Dr. Julia Leday: A Passionate Advocate for Holistic Dentistry

Dr. Julia Leday is a native Texan who brings over 13 years of experience to our practice in the Dallas area. She earned her Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the prestigious Texas A&M Baylor College of Dentistry. But Dr. Leday’s journey didn’t stop at mastering traditional dentistry. After facing her own health challenges, she developed a deep understanding of how dental treatments and materials can impact the body as a whole.

Dr. Leday’s passion for holistic dentistry led her to become SMART-certified in safe amalgam removal and to join the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT). Her extensive training spans comprehensive cosmetic dentistry, airway health, and biologic dentistry. Dr. Leday’s philosophy is simple: treat the whole patient, not just the teeth. She takes time to educate patients on the links between oral and overall health, empowering them to make informed choices.

When she’s not in the office, you can find Dr. Leday volunteering her dental skills at mission clinics, exploring new hiking trails, or whipping up healthy dishes in the kitchen.

Dr. Kylie Holliday: Dedicated to Holistic Patient Care

Dr. Kylie Holliday, originally from Prescott, Arizona, joined the McKinney Dental Wellness team in 2023. After earning her Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Western University of Health Sciences in California, she relocated to Dallas to bring her holistic approach to our community. Dr. Holliday’s goal? To help patients see that oral health isn’t an isolated aspect of wellness—it’s deeply intertwined with the rest of the body.

Dr. Holliday has pursued advanced education in oral sedation, implants, and cosmetic dentistry, as well as pediatric care. She’s dedicated to helping families and individuals understand how oral microbes and bacteria can influence systemic health. Her compassionate nature and focus on patient education make her a great fit for our practice.

Outside of work, Dr. Holliday loves staying active through hiking and bodybuilding, playing sports, and volunteering at her local church. She also enjoys spending time with her boyfriend and their playful golden retriever, Lotto.
