Dr. Lex is a board member for Breakthrough NOLA, and a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. She is a member of the American Board of Pediatric Dentists (ABPD) and the American Association of Pediatric Dentists (AAPD). In her spare time she enjoys spending precious moments with her family.
