Dr. Sanders Graf

Dr. J. Sanders Graf was born and raised in Mobile, Alabama, as the second of four boys. He attended Louisiana State University, where he met Eloise Kayser Graf, a Shreveport native, who would eventually become his wife. He received his dental degree, a Certificate in Orthodontics, as well as a Master’s Degree in Orthodontics from the University of Alabama-Birmingham School of Dentistry. As a lifelong learner, Dr. Graf is always exploring new ideas and technologies. He was the first in the area to embrace Invisalign for treatment of more than just simple cases, and is the largest provider of Invisalign to teens and adults in Northwest Louisiana.

Upon graduation from residency in 2006, Dr. Graf and his young family moved back to the Shreveport/Bossier City area. He and Eloise have three children, Sanders Jr., Mae and Nolen, and he can normally be found at a ball field or tennis court cheering them on. Dr. Graf is proud to be an active member of the community, and is always eager to give back through sponsorships or volunteering his time. Similarly, Dr. Graf volunteers his time to the field of orthodontics as he often returns to the UAB orthodontic program to lecture to the orthodontic residents.

If he’s not at an LSU football game, in his spare time, he enjoys golf, tennis and all types of exercise.
