Q: If you weren’t a dentist, what other career could you see yourself in?
I would love to have been a landscape architect. I love creating beautiful yards filled with plants of all varieties, textures, and colors. I definitely have what people call a “green thumb”!

Q: Where’s your favorite place to travel, or a dream destination you’d love to visit?
I love to travel! Some of my most meaningful trips have been dental mission trips to Honduras, Belize, Mexico, and Guatemala. My favorite personal trips have been with my kids. I traveled to Italy with my daughter and Scotland with my son. Ireland is next on my list, and I hope to visit in the next few years!

Q: What’s your most memorable travel experience?
Traveling with my kids has created some of my favorite memories. I went to Italy with my daughter and Scotland with my son, and both trips were incredibly special.

Q: What volunteering or passion projects do you enjoy outside of work?
I have loved being part of dental mission trips to Honduras, Belize, Mexico, and Guatemala. Being able to combine dentistry with travel and serving others has been especially meaningful to me.

Dr. Jina Kaiser is originally from a small town outside the Dallas, Texas, metroplex. She has lived throughout the state of Texas, earning a biology degree with honors from Texas Tech University in Lubbock before completing her dental degree with honors at the University of Texas Dental School in San Antonio.

She remained in San Antonio for a General Practice Residency at the Audie Murphy Veterans Hospital, where she was fortunate to learn and practice under a prosthodontist, periodontist, endodontist, and oral surgeon. She then had the honor of practicing general and restorative dentistry, with a special interest in cosmetic dentistry, implants, and complex restorative cases, for more than 25 years in the heart of Dallas. During that time, she provided care for generations of families.

Providing comprehensive care in a caring environment built on trust and individualized treatment has always been a priority for Dr. Kaiser. She was voted Best Dentist by her colleagues in Dallas for 20 years.

Although Dr. Kaiser is a Texan, she fell in love with Upstate South Carolina while taking her daughter to camp in Brevard, North Carolina, and while her son was a student at Clemson University. She decided she wanted to call Upstate South Carolina home.

Dr. Kaiser is thrilled to be in Greenville and Travelers Rest. She moved to the area because of her love for the outdoors. She and her dog, Lucy, can often be found hiking, running, and exploring local trails. Last, but certainly not least, Dr. Kaiser was drawn to the Upstate because of its strong sense of community and the warm, welcoming people of South Carolina.

When she is not working or enjoying the outdoors, Dr. Kaiser loves spending time with family and friends, playing tennis, reading, and enjoying live music. She is a regular visitor to the Peace Center and enjoys the arts throughout Greenville County.
