What we do
Four things, done properly. Anything outside this list, we will tell you who to see.
Emergency repair
Chipped, cracked, or knocked-out tooth. Pain that will not wait.
Implants
Replacing a missing tooth with something that lasts decades.
Crowns and veneers
Rebuilding a worn or damaged tooth, or changing how the front ones look.
Cleaning and checkups
The twice-yearly appointment. Scans included, not billed separately.
What it costs, before you sit down
Ranges, not quotes — the exact number depends on the tooth. You will hear it before anything starts, in writing.
We take Delta Dental, Cigna and Aetna. If your plan is not on that list we will still file the claim for you.
Why the prices are on this page
People put off treatment because nobody will give them a number.
The most common thing we hear at a first appointment is that someone waited years — not because of the work, but because no practice would say what it cost until they were already in the chair. So we publish the ranges and put the exact figure in writing before anything starts.
- Written estimate before treatment, every time
- No charge for the consultation that produces it
- If a cheaper option exists, you hear about it
The practice
No stock photography. This is the room you will actually sit in.
Burnet Rd · Austin
Two appointments are held open every weekday.
They are for people who cannot wait until next week. If today is one of those days, call — the phone is answered by the front desk, not a service.
What people said afterwards
Called at 4:30 on a Friday with half a molar in my hand. They had me in the chair by 5:15 and did not once mention anything I did not need.
I put off the implant for two years because nobody would give me a number. Here I got the whole cost written down at the first visit.
Same dentist every time, which sounds small until you have been to the places where it is a different person each visit.
The same dentist, every visit
One practice, one chair, and the person who did the work last time.
Larger practices rotate whoever is free that day. Here the person who fitted your crown is the person who checks it in six months, which is the whole reason this stays a single-dentist practice.
- No rotating associates
- Your history is in the room, not in a file
- Out-of-hours line answered by the dentist
Asked most weeks
If your question is not here, call and ask — the front desk will not put you through a script.
Do you take my insurance?
We take Delta Dental, Cigna and Aetna directly. If your plan is not one of those we still file the claim on your behalf and you are reimbursed as an out-of-network patient — most of our patients end up paying the same either way.
I am in pain today. Can I be seen?
Almost certainly. We hold two appointments open every weekday for exactly this. Call the practice rather than emailing — the phone is answered by the front desk, not a service.
Why do you publish prices when nobody else does?
Because the most common thing we hear is that someone put off treatment for years since no one would give them a number. The ranges on this page are real. The exact figure depends on the tooth and you get it in writing before anything starts.
How long does an implant actually take?
Three visits over about four months. Most of that is healing time, not chair time. You are not without a tooth in the meantime — a temporary goes in the same day as the post.
Will I see the same dentist each time?
Yes. This is a single-dentist practice, which is the whole reason it stays small.
Getting here
Phones are answered by the front desk during opening hours, and by the on-call dentist outside them.
