Is the Haltom City studio taking new patients right now?

Yes. The usual way in is the $99 first visit: a full comprehensive exam, digital X-rays and a basic clean where no periodontal disease is present. Book a slot online or call (682) 257-1420.

My tooth hurts today. Can you fit me in?

Same-day emergencies are built into the schedule. The emergency exam is $29 so you can find out exactly what is going on before deciding anything.

Are you open on Saturdays in Haltom City?

Yes. Saturdays run 8:00am to 2:00pm Central Time for cleanings, check-ups and same-day emergencies. Also open Fridays 3:00pm to 8:00pm and Tuesdays 10:00am to 7:00pm. Closed Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday.

What if I do not have dental insurance?

The in-house membership plan takes fifteen percent off all treatment with no annual limits, and Cherry financing splits bigger cases into monthly payments. Most PPO plans are also accepted.

How do I get to you from Watauga or North Richland Hills?

From Watauga, head south on Denton Hwy and exit at NE Loop 820. From North Richland Hills, take I-820 west, exit Haltom Rd and follow the frontage road. Parking is free at the door of Suite 100.

Will I see the same dentist every visit?

Yes. Dr. Matthew Le founded the studio and treats patients here himself. He trained at UT Health Science Center at Houston, is an Invisalign certified provider and has received a Top Docs Award.

First Visit

What to Expect at Your First Appointment

New patients usually ask the same thing in different words: "What actually happens when I walk in?" Fair question. Your first visit at our Haltom Rd office is built around getting a real picture of your mouth, not rushing you through a checklist. We take the time to look at your teeth, gums, and bite, review your health history, and talk honestly about anything that needs attention.

Here is roughly how that first hour tends to go:

A conversation first. We ask about your dental history, any pain or sensitivity, and what you are hoping to get out of your care here.
A full exam and X-rays. This lets us see what's happening below the surface, including anything that hasn't started bothering you yet.
A cleaning, if time allows. Depending on what we find, we will either clean your teeth that same visit or schedule it separately if more involved treatment needs to happen first.
A clear plan in plain English. No jargon, no surprise next steps. You'll leave knowing what, if anything, needs to happen next and roughly what it costs.

If you are new to the area or just looking for the best dentist near me in Haltom City, our New Patients page walks through paperwork, what to bring, and how to fill out your forms ahead of time so your visit moves quickly.

Costs & Coverage

Know the Price Before You Sit Down

Money questions are the most common ones we get, and honestly, they should be. Nobody wants a surprise bill after a cleaning. We would rather walk you through the numbers before any drilling starts than explain them afterward.

Looking for an affordable dental clinic in Haltom City? Here is how we try to keep things straightforward:

We verify your insurance before you arrive. Our team checks benefits ahead of your appointment so there are no guessing games at the front desk.
We offer financing options for bigger treatment plans. Implants, multiple crowns, or a full mouth plan do not have to happen all at once financially. Visit our Financing page for details.
We run seasonal offers. Keep an eye on our Special Offers page for discounted exams, whitening deals, and new patient pricing.
We write out a treatment estimate. Before anything beyond a routine cleaning happens, you get a number in writing, not a verbal ballpark.

Treatments We Offer

Teeth Whitening, Implants, Root Canals, and More

A good chunk of the calls we get are really service questions dressed up as general ones. "Do you do implants?" "Can you whiten my teeth before a wedding?" "I think I need a root canal, is that something you handle here?" Short answer: yes to all three, and quite a bit more. Here is a quick rundown of what patients ask about most:

Teeth whitening in Haltom City that is done chairside, under supervision, instead of guessing with store strips.
Dental implants in Haltom City for patients looking to replace a missing tooth with something that functions like a real one.
Root canal treatment handled right here, so you are not referred out and waiting weeks while you are in pain.
Routine cleanings and exams for every member of the family, from first teeth to dentures.
Crowns, fillings, and bridges for repairing teeth that have taken some wear over the years.

Our Approach

Promises We Make on Day One

Some of what makes a good family dentist in Haltom City has less to do with specific treatments and more to do with how a visit feels, start to finish. These are the things we try to hold ourselves to every single appointment:

1. We explain before we treat. You will know what we found and why before we recommend anything.

2. We respect your schedule. On-time appointments and realistic visit lengths, not hours in a waiting room.

3. We write down the cost. No verbal estimates that change once the work starts.

4. We see kids and grandparents alike. This is a true family practice, built for every age.

5. We handle emergencies with urgency. Pain gets priority, not a week-long wait.

6. We follow up. After bigger procedures, we check in to make sure you are healing well.

Quick Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the questions that come up most often when people call our Haltom City office. Tap any question to expand the answer.

Do you accept my dental insurance?

We work with most major PPO insurance plans and will verify your specific benefits before your appointment so you know what to expect out of pocket. If you don't have insurance, we also offer competitive self-pay pricing and financing options for larger treatment plans. Give us a call at (817) 203-4441 with your provider's name and we will confirm coverage before you ever sit in the chair.

How soon can I get an appointment, especially if I'm in pain?

If you are dealing with a toothache, swelling, or a broken tooth, call us right away. We do our best to see pain-related concerns the same day or the next business day, since we know dental discomfort does not wait for a convenient time. For routine cleanings and checkups, we typically can get you on the books within a week or two, depending on the day you prefer.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Please bring a photo ID, your insurance card if you have one, and a list of any medications you currently take. If you have had recent X-rays taken at another office, it helps to bring those or have them sent over ahead of time. New patients can also save time by filling out intake forms in advance, details are on our New Patients page.

Do you offer payment plans or financing for larger treatments?

Yes. Treatments like implants, crowns, or a full mouth plan can add up fast, so we offer financing options designed to spread the cost into manageable monthly payments. Our Financing page outlines the options currently available, and our front desk team can walk you through what fits your budget before you commit to anything.

What age do you start seeing children?

We recommend bringing children in for their first visit around their first birthday, or once their first teeth start coming in, whichever happens first. Early visits are short, low-pressure, and mostly about getting your child comfortable with the office before any real treatment is ever needed. We treat patients of every age, so your whole family can be seen under one roof.

Is teeth whitening done in one visit?

In most cases, yes. Our in-office whitening treatment is typically completed in a single appointment, with results you can see right away, noticeably brighter than drugstore kits. We will also go over what to expect afterward, since staining habits like coffee or wine can affect how long the results last. Check our Special Offers page for current whitening pricing.
