The "nobody likes going to the dentist" people in your life have obviously not gone to District Dental! Navigating insurance and finding healthcare providers in a new city is beyond overwhelming so I took my time finding a dentist. I am so happy I found District Dental! Parking was easy. Check in was easy. Reminder system is great. I saw Dr. Thomas. She was amazing as was her hygienist and front desk staff. They printed out a full quote for everything that I need done that was easy to read and understand as well as gave me a referral to a trusted oral surgeon. I am excited to go back because I know that I'm in good hands! read more

I went in for a new patient visit today. They did a round of X-rays and I met with the dentist, who reviewed the X-rays and did an exam. She said everything looked good. Then the dental hygienist came in and informed me that based on his review of my X-rays I needed a deep clean to remove some buildup under my gums (which he specifically said is not a new problem) but he'd be willing to do a medium deep clean. The insurance specialist informed me it would cost over $300, out of pocket. To be clear, I go to the dentist every 6 months and have my entire life. I brush twice a day and floss daily. The dentist today had no concerns about my teeth after reviewing my X-rays. No dentist (or dental hygienist) has ever recommended a deep clean before. And I was told this is "not a new problem." I declined the medium deep cleaning, the hygienist refused to do a regular cleaning and I left. The whole experience felt very scammy. And I still need to get my teeth cleaned. read more

Over seven years later, and I still think I have the best dentist in Houston. Efficient and happy office staff. Nice facilities. Dr. V is gentle and does great work. I used to be so afraid of the dentist I had to have sedation dentistry. I don't even have to take anti-anxiety meds any more because I trust Dr. V. read more

Dr. V and his staff are outstanding. They provide exceptional customer service, maintain a professional atmosphere, and pay close attention to every detail. I highly recommend them. read more

I was referred to Dr. Villaseñor by my boyfriend so I came in for a deep cleaning today. OMG the hygienist Josh had great customer service & explained each step of the process! I was so happy with the end result even my boyfriend won't stop taking selfies w me! read more

This was my first visit to this practice. I loved that I had zero issues getting an appointment. I didn't have to wait for MONTHS like most practices. I did have to wait a few weeks, but they are very well staffed, so it makes it nice to not have to live and die by appointments set in stone in case you need to reschedule. Parking was very easy. Depending on what time you go, you can park right in front. The office and staff are beyond great! I highly recommend giving this place a call! read more

Great place to go! Friendly dentists and dental assistants, beautiful environment, and wonderful care.

As someone who usually dreads going to the dentist, I recently had a great experience at District Dental. The office is clean and modern, and the staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. My dental hygenist Summer, made me feel very comfortable and well taken care of throughout my visit. Dr. Thomas was very friendly and knowledgeable and took the time to listen to my concerns. She answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. Im so glad I found this dental office an I look forward to coming back read more

Can you trust a good dentist when they are a part of a bad business practicing unscrupulous billing? Read more to find out. MetLife Dental Insurance partners with in-network providers that agree to - rate for services. When a provider is in-network, you should be able to rely on MetLife's negotiated rate. With that said, District Dental is considered in-network for MetLife members and therefore rate for services is already negotiated. Members should feel at peace knowing they can rely on a negotiated rate unless something unscrupulous happens. It might help to explain that I experienced severe tooth pain and decided to see an in-network dentist (District Dental). Getting straight to the point. My dentist provided options for treatment. Nothing unscrupulous about that. In fact, I was impressed with the care I received and ready to move forward with one of the treatment plans. That is until I met with billing. Billing reviewed my insurance and coverage, for billing code 2950 - core buildup. Cost for procedure: $120. But I found that strange, because I had this exact treatment done twice in 2022, but it was significantly less. How? A discussion on cost ensued and we figured the out-of-pocket cost is actually $60, after MetLife pays its portion. So, why am I being charged $120? Here's the unscrupulous part - according to District Dental, there's no guarantee MetLife covers this procedure and therefore payment for full price (non-negotiated rate) upfront is required. You get reimbursed after MetLife approves the claim. That was a Red Flag for me, so I called MetLife to find out. There have been some problems with getting reimbursed by MetLife for this bill code according to District Dental. Sounds like a trust issue between MetLife and provider. Pay attention to the word I used "Trust". MetLife reviewed my coverage details with me and concluded the procedure was covered under my policy for the negotiated rate of $60. I asked, why is my bill $120? MetLife explained to bill full price (that means non-negotiated rate) for a member in-network was not a best practice and goes against MetLife's guidelines for their providers, furthermore MetLife told me this is not a common practice they hear about and to file a grievance against the provider with MetLife. The representative ended our conversation with an important point. They said, if this provider had trouble getting reimbursed by MetLife, then it sounds like there's a trust issue and the provider should contact MetLife to discuss their concerns. I thought about what she said and possibly what she was alluding to. Does that mean District Dental can't trust MetLife, or MetLife can't trust District Dental's billing? What did I learn from my experience here? Frist, I'll never be back. Second, check your bill against your coverage. Then check your bill again against your coverage. And then check your bill against your coverage again. PROS: Booking Appointment, excellent; Customer Service, excellent; Dentist, excellent; Facility, excellent; CONS: Payment/Billing, unscrupulous. read more

We are so glad we stumbled upon District Dental! This practice has helpful front end staff and fantastic dental hygienists (Sabrina and Brandi, our hygienists are wonderful, caring, and thorough). Dr. V is personable, kind, and provides individualized care to make sure your teeth are in their best shape. What we appreciate most is the transparency in pricing at this practice and 0 pushiness or upselling of any unnecessary procedures. We highly recommend District Dental. read more

Sabrina is the sweetest, and hands down the best hygienist I've ever had. Incredibly gentle, very personable, and always does a great, thorough job. I always look forward to my bi-annual cleanings and catching up with her. Highly recommend District Dental and requesting Sabrina. read more

I was seven (7) minutes late but I came in with allow my New Patient forms filled out. I waited another 10 minutes before being escorted to the back. Josh was my hygienist and he was very thorough with the x-rays and the measuring of the pockets around my teeth. Dr. Thomas came in and explained why I needed a partial deep cleaning. All good! Next comes the person who does the plan, except here is where you need to pay attention. She charged me for a whole mouth deep cleaning and not a partial and on top of all of this Dr. Thomas was with a patient and so there was no clarification. Then it was explained I would not be getting my teeth cleaned today. So after being there for 1 hour and 15 minutes, District is going to charge for my x-rays the service I made an appt for was NOT COMPLETED. Oh yes, I have very good insurance and was told that by the staff. read more

I was a loyal client at this facility and I hate to write this review. However, in the past 3+ years of going here, I think things have changed for the worse. I have, on numerous occasions, booked with a specific hygienist only to see someone random--not informed ahead of time of the change. I've also gotten fillings here that were less than satisfactory, requiring revisions. Big no no for me because I want a dentist who I can trust they will take care of my teeth properly. Lastly, I stopped going because of the COVID cost. It's actually not a standard practice to charge extra for PPE ... I called around different dental places in the area to verify. A box of masks and gloves isn't that expensive. $35/person covers a box of gloves and masks and I'm sure you don't need a box of either per person. I left 3 stars because the place is clean and the hygienist Sabrina is really good at her job. read more

I love coming to District Dental, and I'm so glad that my sister recommended this dental practice -- specifically hygienist, Sabrina!!!! She's THE BEST! She's prompt, personable, professional, & does an excellent job!!!! She's the MAIN reason why I come to this dental facility. I really hope they're compensating her well, because if she ever left I'd follow her. Huge asset, and her customer service is unmatched!!! Highly recommend District Dental and make sure your hygienist is Sabrina!!!! read more

Let me first start by saying that I've been going to the same dentist for close to 10 years and haven't been unhappy for any particular reason. I've just been having this sensitivity issue that I can't seem to permanently fix; so, long story short, I decided to give another dentist a try. I found District Dental on Yelp and decided to go with them based on ratings and reviews. I'm satisfied, but it wasn't enough to make me want to permanently make the switch. Their office is new, very contemporarily (is that even a word?) decorated, and it's located in a nice shopping center with ample (free) parking. Their staff is also very nice and friendly, but I wouldn't say their knowledge, technology/equipment, or protocols set them apart from my other dentist. Though I would recommend them to someone looking for a dentist, I wouldn't encourage people to change their dentist if they're not unhappy. read more

Sabrina and Dr. Thomas are the best one-two combo to maintain a healthy dental history. I've been a patient for over 2 years and I could not recommend anyone better. I have floated around and tried other dentist offices; these ladies are the best! It all starts with your dental hygienist. I've used my dental plan through BlueCross BlueShield and Humana without any issues. What are you waiting for? Schedule your appointment now. read more

We love every visit! The doctors are phenomenal and Sabrina is the most amazing hygienist- her personalized approach and attention to detail is amazing! read more

I had an absolutely wonderful experience here. No one likes going to the dentist but from the front desk to the hygienist to Dr. Thomas, the customer service was incredible. I will never go to another dentist office! read more

I broke one of my front teeth and was recommended to District Dental by a dental hygienist friend. Dr. Thomas and the rest of the staff are so friendly and knowledgable. I have never really liked the dentist but getting my tooth fixed here has been easy and painless and I find myself looking forward to my appointments. They worked with me on everything and were quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. My crown looks great!! I could not have had a better experience with District Dental and I highly recommend them. read more

I started coming here this year and have been in several times for various issues. The hygienist, Sabrina, is super sweet and I will definitely be continuing to go to her for my teeth cleanings. Dr. Thomas has also helped me tremendously with my consistent facial soreness from grinding my teeth at night. You can tell all staff at the office really cares for their patients. They make going to the dentist enjoyable! read more

I like many people have a lot of anxiety around dentist visits. Everyone at the office was super nice and professional. The hygienist listened to my concerns and was very gentle and quick with my cleaning. The dentist that examined me was friendly and knowledgeable. I have recommended District Dental to all my friends that live in the area. read more

Amazing! I was having trouble finding a new dentist after moving from the suburbs to the city and finally caved and used Yelp to find one ... and I'm glad I did! For someone who hates the dentist, I loved this one and the entire staff/experience. I have sensitive teeth and Sabrina was super understanding and accommodating to make me feel at ease and have the best experience possible. 10/10 would recommended! read more

I want to start by thanking the staff at District Dental for the Amazing experience. From the front staff Rachel to the back staff.

I will definitely recommend to anybody looking for a Dentist. I found them on google and I now know why they had a 5 Stars. "MUST CHECK THEM OUT " THANK YOU DISTRICT DENTAL read more

I've been visiting District Dental for over 9 months now.This will be my go to dental office for my continual dental treatment! Dr. Thomas is my dentist and Sabrina is my hygienist. Both are awesome and they'll be the two I continually see. So far I've had 2 cleanings and I've started my treatment plan which is basically filling cavities that I have. So far everything has been going great. I haven't been in any pain during the procedures and Sabrina does a really great job when doing my cleanings. My teeth feel a lot better now than when I first started. The only thing I wish they could do, is extractions in their office. I hate to have to get those types of things done at another dental office. Other than that, I'm very happy with the decision I made on coming here. Thank you Sabrina and Dr. Thomas! read more

Normally I was happy with this place, however this time was different. I had a different tech and different doctor. I wasn't informed that over the phone. What really got me was the PPE charge. I'm in healthcare - why didn't you apply for the PPe loan to get some equipment. Oh btw, 35$ for fluoride treatment. I have MetLife dental- which doesn't cover much. There are nearby better dental offices in the area that don't up charge your insurance for allotment read more

I've never been one of those people who hates the dentist, but Sabrina actually makes the visit, dare I say, enjoyable?! She clearly knows what she's doing, she remembers me and my teeth (which is wild to me considering how many patients she sees), and she has great workout/gym recommendations which is an unexpected bonus. Dr. Thomas was lovely, and spent a decent amount of time just chatting with me and answering my strange questions about charcoal toothpaste. The office is organized and I've never even had the chance to sit down in the waiting room because they take me back immediately. My next appointment is already in the books! read more

District Dental staff understands your time and smile are important. I switched dentist because my previous wait times were ridiculously long. From the moment I arrived I was greated with a genuine smile. I was in and out in a timely manner. Dr. Thomas and Samantha were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I am a District Dental patient for life! read more

Sabrina was awesome! I loved every minute of my dental visit. They have a great team and I'm happy I found this Dental office.

Love it here! Everyone is super friendly, always on time, and always so helpful. 10/10 experience! :)

I was visiting from out of town for Christmas and one of my molars cracked in half. District Dental was able to see me the same day and treat me. The staff was amazing - from the phone call, to the front desk to the Dentist (Dr. Paddon) and her assistants! The office was extremely clean and professional. I have a fear of going to the Dentist and they talked me through everything they were doing and took their time which made me calm. Thank you all at District Dental for making my experience a great one! read more

I'm not sure where to start this review but can say this is the best place on Earth to have your teeth worked on. I literally twirl through the parking lot into the frost door and don't want to leave. Who says this about dental offices? Me! Why? I will tell you why.. The place is clean, has the vibes of a bonsai tree and is located next door to a bar and ice cream shop! So it wins by default. The staff is totally friendly and attractive. Like Vogue attractive. Vanessa-- she can read minds.. Truth- I submitted my most recent appointment request online and within two minutes, received a call to from her to confirm. My brain said "holy shit! this place is all about service and man did they just collect". BUT she hadn't received the email. Could it be considered coincidence? Sure, but the dental god made that happen. Yep... Dr. V.. He is the mouth handyman. When I originally went to him, he handled my challenging mouth situation in entirety. He didn't provide a lecture about being a total wretch of a tooth landlord but did provide many solutions to deploy for a bright style. Man is legit and a supporter of the local business realm. Laid back as well.. Tooth therapist. And then there is Sabrina.. Sabrina is the real tooth fairy. I never believed in the fairy until I met her in person. She is the kindest, sweetest and "gentlest" mouth mechanic I've ever met. She is genuine and wears black like Johnny Cash. Like Johnny, Sabrina is good at what she does you won't want to leave. I mean so awesome that I'm on Web MD right now trying to come up with some kind of mouth issue just to go back. And if that isn't enough, she provides cool shades to wear while in the chair. Awesome sauce! So -- Do yourself and your mouth a huge favor. Go see the folks at DD in the Heights the next time you need a cleaning. They are amazing - totally not the old creeper in the coat we have nightmares about. In addition, she will have you wanting to take the best care of your mouth possible. They are totally great folks and I was so blessed to have made the move. read more

Today was my first time at District Dental, and as a new patient, I was very impressed. The facility was really clean, the staff was friendly, and Sabrina, my hygienist, was excellent! Dr. Thomas spent several minutes with me, reviewed my x-rays, and my overall oral health, and she was also very nice. Because I've had extensive dental work over the years, I wanted to feel comfortable with a new dentist, and I'm glad I've chosen District Dental with Dr. Thomas and Dr. Villasenor. Laura Morales read more

dr Villasenor and staff are fantastic. they are genuinely friendly and care about making the experience as comfortable as possible. I always leave feeling good about the service and care I received read more

I just recently moved to the area and have been on the hunt for a new dental office. It's always nerve racking switching from an office you're already familiar with... but all I can say about this place is - WOW! Booking an appointment was a breeze, all completed very quickly via email. My hygienist Sabrina was incredible! She's hilarious and very friendly. Her work is thorough and she offered me lots of helpful tips for cleaning, and encouraged me to improve where necessary. Being new to the city she also gave me all kinds of great recommendations for restaurants and things to do, etc. which was really appreciated! I had an equally good experience with the dentist Dr. Thomas. She's very personable and really took the time to get to know me before my exam. Ensuring all my questions and concerns were answered was top priority, and there was no rush. I feel if I had significant concerns in the future I would be given all the time I needed. I was really impressed with how they take pictures and x-rays of each of your teeth for an initial assessment. I don't remember the last dental exam I had that was this thorough. Looking forward to future appointments here. Highly recommend this office! read more

I have been coming to District Dental since July and could not be happier with the service I have received. From my dental hygienist, Sabrina, to Dr. V and Dr. Thomas, I have received comprehensive oral care. The entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the treatments provided. On my first visit, Dr. V wanted me to begin deep cleaning sessions for periodontal disease. Sabrina was able to schedule my first session that afternoon. During the procedure, Sabrina kept me calm and informed of each step and she ensured I wasn't in pain. On my last visit, I had a temporary crown placed with Dr. Thomas. She is the new dentist at District Dental, but she was phenomenal. Before the procedure, she took time to answer all of my questions and describe the entire procedure to me. She ensured that I remained calm and made sure I didn't experience any pain during the procedure. Two days after the procedure, I received a phone call from the office to ensure that I wasn't having any pain or complications. This office is by far the best experience I've had with dentists. They are competent and caring and I highly recommend them to everyone! read more

OMG Sabrina! So to start off I had to replace my previous dentist because his hygienist wasn't the best, i just couldn't allow her to touch me ever again so i went on a search and found this place, thanks to yelp and google reviews. I must say im happy i switched for one their technology is amazing at first i was in my head like omg im going to have a big bill i know their expensive and I WAS WRONG. It doesn't get any better than this. I received a excellent power wash teeth cleaning with minty chocolate lip balm while getting it lol cool right. They have this camera system that takes picture of every single tooth crystal clear and Dr. V comes in evaluates and speaks with you, very cool guy rocking a Astro's shirt! CAN YOU BELIEVE I RECEIVED 2 FILLINGS WITH NO NUMBING MEDICINE! Me either and I'm very sensitive i always cry at the dentist because im in pain. I was scared but it literally did not hurt. This place had to come from so where above this technology doesn't make any sense. The ambiance of this place is amazing and very clean im "germaphobic" hope i spelled it right, so im always looking and everyone's hands were clean "2 thumbs up" Last but not least my favvvvvv Sabrina she was my hygienist, Sabrina has amazing excellent customer service, she builds customer rapport and finds common interest. She makes sure you're comfortable, I felt like she was my dentist. She has over 10 yrs of experience i believe 12 to be certain. My mouth feels like a million bucks. She was very thorough with everything, ill trust her with my eyes closed. You can tell she loves what she does, those are the career people you want to do business with or give business too. TRUST ME ON THIS GO GET YOUR TEETH CLEAN AT DISTRICT DENTAL AND SEE SABRINA. Thank you for everything ill see you in December and May! read more

I was referred to District dental from a friend and truly didn't know what to expect. I was beyond impressed with the dental hygienist whose name is Sabrina! She was by far the BEST hygienist I've ever had and did such an outstanding job! She was super friendly and welcoming as she brought me back to the room and continued to be SO professional, efficient in her skill, extremely informative and helpful answering questions I had....all while doing such a thorough and excellent cleaning. She truly is the BESTand such an asset to this business! I will definitely continue to go to District dental to continuing the highest level of service and standards with Sabrina!! She's truly a gem! Thanks so much!! read more

So I spent a lot of time reading different reviews about District Dental. I have always been pretty terrified of the dentist and I honestly had not been in for a check up in the last couple of years due to a horrible experience through a previous dentist back in my hometown. I moved to Houston not to long ago and after reading about District Dental, I had high hopes with all these fantastic reviews! First of all, I called in informing them I was interested in becoming a new patient. The receptionists Kay and Vanessa were so very kind and after finding out that they accepted my insurance, asked immediately if I could come in that day! Amazing customer service from the get go! I came in and right off the bat, x-rays were preformed on my teeth and a full analysis was given to me in a matter of minutes. The best thing was the screen in front of me showing all my x-rays, pictures of my individual teeth, and an explanation through a number scale on how healthy or unhealthy my teeth were. Now to the best part, my Dental Hygienist KELLY, oh my goodness! Seriously...I can't not tell you HOW MUCH I appreciate her. She is such a loving, caring, and overall just an absolutely amazing human being! She always made sure I was very comfortable and told me to tell her if I was ever even in the slightest amount of pain. Even with a completely numb mouth and drooling all over myself, we shared some great stories and many, many laughs. Her vibe was stellar and she was very attentive and answered any and all questions that I had. You can tell the whole team supports and cherishes each other and it really shows through everyone's productivity level and positive attitudes! I will continue to look forward to my future appointments with Kelly, Dr. V and the rest of their team! read more

First cleaning after 5+ years. Chose place based on these reviews which did not disappoint. The process to book, sign-in, and fill out e-paperwork was efficient and easy. The hygienist, Sabrina, was fantastic! She was very informative and thorough during the cleaning. Dr. Villasenor effectively informed me of options to repair teeth. Nothing painful or negative about my experience, even after so long away from the dentist. I recommend this office! read more
