Dr. Anne Hagan is the best dentist I have ever had. That sounds like a stupidly simplistic statement, but she has diagnosed issues that other dentists had overlooked, (and corrected them), worked with my discomfort in receiving care due to a traumatic experience with a dentist as a child, and when I was having issues during a recent procedure, she demonstrated what I would call precision speed dentistry. I have never seen less wasted motion or more efficient and effective work. I am grateful for her care, and highly recommend to to anyone who has discomfort when they're in the chair. Not to mention, she cleared up a halitosis issue that I was experiencing, for which my wife is eternally grateful. read more

Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience regarding an Invisalign agreement and gave the office multiple opportunities to resolve it. In December, I had a consultation for Invisalign and was quoted approximately $5,000 (paid in full, no insurance involved). During that consultation, I specifically asked whether whitening treatment could be included in the cost. After checking with the office, the dentist confirmed that it could. Near the end of my treatment, I asked about the whitening treatment and was given take-home whitening gel. This was not what I understood to be included, so I later texted the dentist to clarify. He acknowledged the misunderstanding and agreed to provide an in-office treatment at a future appointment. At the next appointment, I received what the office described as a short "maintenance" whitening treatment. When I explained again that I had expected a full in-office whitening treatment, I was told that the treatment I was referring to normally costs around $700 and could only be offered to me at half price. My frustration is not about the cost of whitening itself -- it's that I specifically asked whether whitening treatment (not a maintenance one) could be included before agreeing to move forward with Invisalign, and I was told yes. I raised the issue multiple times and do not feel it was ever meaningfully resolved. What was especially frustrating is that even the reduced "maintenance" whitening treatment the office claimed they originally intended to provide was never consistently followed through on. At my final retainer appointment, there was no mention of whitening at all despite the prior discussions and assurances. The Invisalign results themselves turned out well, but I was disappointed by how this situation was handled and by the lack of accountability regarding what had originally been agreed upon. I'm including screenshots of the text conversation referenced above so others can make their own informed judgment. read more

Forest Family Dentistry - Text conversation regarding confusion about whitening treatment - General Dentistry Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

I've been a Forest patient since moving from California three years ago. From day one, Dr. Hagan has shown a sincere interest & professionalism which is unsurpassed. This week I went in for a long overdue cleaning. Erica assisted in the procedure very well. Dr. Hagan came by to solidify treatment details, & Jacky, the Hygienist, was superb. She went above & beyond with the mechanics, with attention to detail & communicating with me as a patient. I live in Copperas Cove, but the drive to Austin is more than worth the concern, service & care with which I've been provided. Five stars plus+++ read more

This place is so professional and personable. I did not have a wait and everyone was so welcoming. I highly recommend this dentist practice for all who are looking for a calm atmosphere. read more

OMToof!! Seriously, you can't handle the toof. I absolutely hate going to the dentist. Some might say my fear is irrational. Pfft. Bad gag reflex, fear, sweaty palms, stress...that's your girl. I came home from work and chipped a tooth pretty badly on a Rice Krispies Treat. Who does that? Me, that's who. Anyway it was like 5 pm. I went into full-on panic mode convinced I was going to lose the tooth. My worst fear is not being able to save a tooth. I needed help stat! I've only been in Austin a year (as of 6/9/25) and really wasn't having luck finding a good dentist. Friends of mine are periodontists and advised they heard good things about Forest Family. So back to 5 pm, Rice Krispies Treat time: I went to the Forest Family Dentistry website and within minutes was able to book an emergency appointment for the next day at 7:30 am. I had to go to Burnet Road location because the Navasota location (less than a mile from where I live was booked). No matter, it's really not that far at all. From the minute I walked in the door to the minute I walked out the door I was treated with kindness, understanding, and professionalism. I was immediately put at ease and that says a lot for me when going to the dentist. Dr. Hagan is the bees knees!! She's so kind, thorough, and an amazing professional. I've waited by entire life for this time of dental experience. I can't recommend this practice enough. Big shoutout to all my new pals at this location! The best part is that I'm not going to lose my tooth or even need a root canal! A simple crown will take care of it and it'll be happening within a few days of this post. Of course I'm opting for nitrous because you know, irrational fear of the dentist. read more

I moved to Austin 6 years ago and continued to go to my former dentist in my hometown until last month. I wanted to find someone in Austin. I asked my neighbors and they recommended Forest. I saw Dr. Hagen and thought she was knowledgeable and kind. I felt she listened to my concerns about excess X-rays. I felt the technician and office staff were good too. read more

The only Dentist practice I've ever liked. Forrest Family Dentistry on Burnet Road is outstanding! The staff is friendly, professional, and efficient. The office is modern, spotless, and equipped with the latest technology, making every visit stress-free. They genuinely care about their patients and make you feel like family. Highly recommend for exceptional dental care! Needles are still needles, we know they suck. This places make it as comfortable as possible. Amazing staff! Dr. Hagan for the win. read more

I think they're great. Clean office, friendly people. Did a great job on my front teeth

This is such a wonderful clinic! They are very time efficient and it's such an easy experience.

Had a wonderful first experience, they texted me the day of my appointment saying I could come early if I wanted to and whole staff was friendly and on top of it. I mentioned I was Interested in teeth whitening and they did it same day so I wouldn't have to come back. Excellent service and would highly recommend. read more

Went in for some fillings with Dr Oviedo and everything went great! Would highly recommend"

I been going to Forest Family Dentistry - Burnet for about a year and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming -- they actually remember my name and let me park my bike inside the office. I really appreciate that they take the time to explain in detail whether is a routine cleaning or something more involved. They take the time to answer any of my questions and make me feel more informed about my dental health after each visit. Also, I really appreciate that they do every visit with care. I had a deep cleaning done at this location and they were actively checking on me while doing the procedure. In one occasion, Dr. Steven Oviedo saw me waiting for my girlfriend in the lobby and took that chance to catch up with me and make sure that I was following his recommendations. Great Guy and Dentist Overall, I recommend this Dentistry to anyone in Austin. Extra cool points for having a giant toothbrush right outside lol read more

Cannot recommend them enough. I am a no insurance cash customer. After an initial filling the problem did not go away. They have been extremely attentive on getting me back and trying to get the problem resolved. The best part is that they haven't charged an extra dime. While we are still working on my problem. It feels like they have my back. read more

I have been so happy with Forest Family. Dr Hagen is a sweetheart and did a wonderful job with my Invisalign, crown and build ups. She explains everything and her staff is thorough kind and competent. Five star. read more

I was a bit skeptical about coming to FFD after my first time and hearing a few friends not too pleased with their experiences. I had to give it another try because FFD has such high reviews! I was not too impressed with the Anderson location, but was willing to try out a different one. I am SO glad I did! I cannot stop raving about Dr. Dave and his team! He genuinely takes the time to hear all your concerns, and actually CHECKS them out! I love that he doesn't go for the "just to be safe, let's go for the extreme" tactics. Instead, he opts for the less invasive methods and performs tests before making a decision. For an example, if a root canal is necessary. When I first came to the Anderson location for a limited exam, they were estimating ~$800 to get everything done. I am all about doing as I'm told, but ~$800 for something that wasn't high on my priority list seemed a bit extreme. Dr. Dave confirmed to me, it wasn't concerning at all and to just make sure to stay on top of cleaning my sensitive area. In addition to being less invasive, Dr. Dave and his hygienist, Parviz, are lax, calm, friendly, and easy to converse with. Some dentists don't know when to stop talking ie: when you have 3 different things going on in your mouth and a pool of drool dripping from the side of it. Dr. Dave & Parviz have perfected knowing when to converse and when to stop. I'm known to being a nomad with my dentists, because... honestly, who likes dentists... *SORRY* Well, THIS GIRL DOES, and I have found a new dental home! read more

A+ experience as a new patient at Forest Family Dentistry today! They got me in a few weeks early from their cancellation list which was nice to have moved up. I have been concerned about covid safety but Forest Family Dentistry has a long list of precautions that they take very seriously. The office is sparkling clean, everyone was wearing protective gear and sanitizing and using clean tools throughout the process. I have severe anxiety at the dentist but Brooke and Parviz helped me relax and feel more at ease. I also was scanned (no gross mouth putty!!) for a new top retainer and bottom night guard after I cracked it from grinding my teeth - thanks a lot 2020 lol. The process was quick and easy and the front desk was transparent about the cost. Excellent visit and would recommend to anyone! read more

Dr. Hartman was amazing with my 7 yo who has dental phobia. I thought my child would never willingly go to the dentist. She looks forward to going to FFD - Burnet and voluntarily and responsibly wears her dental device (HealthyStart). We've already seen noticeable improvements in her bite and with her speech therapy thanks to Healthy Start. Dr. Hagan has gone above and beyond to provide care to myself and my husband. We've loved our experience - and it's great that we can all go to the same place (family of five) instead of having separate pediatric and adult dentists. read more

As a new patient, I had a great experience. The receptionists, the hygienist, and the dentists who worked with me were all kind, respectful, and set me at ease. Would definitely recommend! read more

I needed to find a new senators as mine had retired. Going to the dentist terrifies me. This past week I went in for an exam in cleaning and concerns about pain in one of my teeth. The team that worked on me included Sophia, Parvis and Dr Dave. I was so pleased with the quality and care I was given during my thorough cleaning. While the pain in my tooth wasn't all that bad, the following day which was a weekend it became unbearable. I was able to send an email to Dr. Dave expecting to hear from him the following Monday. However, within an hour Dr. Dave reached out to me and was able to prescribe an antibiotic to help with the infection. I never expected that level of service on a weekend. read more

This was a really great dentist. Dr. Hagan is great and the place was so high tech! Ashley had x-ray guns that were handheld and wireless and all this imaging software but most of all they were very sweet very organized and very thorough. They had also allowed a front desk workerTo have her baby at work and I thought that was awesome. Always good to support businesses that support families. read more

Great experience! Totally recommend. Forest family Dentistry has a great team,very friendly and professional. Dr Hagan and Dr Dave did a great job with my exam and treatment! Can't wait to go back again! read more

Dr. Hagan is the absolute best! She preformed a tongue tie frenectomy on my 2 month old which sounds a bit frightening but she explained the whole process in detail and even the after care process! I'm so glad we had her for this uncomfortable process as a parent who hates to see their baby cry. Dr.Hagan really took all the weight off my shoulders and my baby is now latching on much better thanks to her! Thank you so much Dr.Hagan, you rock! read more

They did a fabulous job getting me in as a new patient once the quarantine ended. They were extremely cautious and took all the steps they could possible to make the appointment normal & go very smoothly without much contact! Highly recommend! Quick, easy, and an honest dentist. read more

I've been to a few dentists in Austin and I usually don't write positive reviews. As a new patient after covid lockdown, this practice has gone above and beyond! Not only with Dr. Hagan and her team, but also with the administrative staffs!! Went for my first visit as a new pt, received recommended treatment plans, and I decided to proceed a week later due to trust (educational facts from dentist) and great customer service! I highly recommend and have spread the words to my friends. Please keep up the great amazing service you give, it's very well commended! Thank you! read more

When I posted the first review, the owner messaged me via Yelp. I never did communicate with him. By the following day there were emails regarding the refund being processed. Took awhile, as these things do, but it has been credited to my account... read more

Forest Family Dentistry has one of the most welcoming Dentistry's! They are friendly, welcoming, and very understanding. As a nervous patient, I have never felt so assured and calm during a visit. Everything was transparent and well explained, and the staff was exceptionally patient. Not only was the environment welcoming, but everyone was very informative. I loved learning about WHY certain toothpastes, flosses, and mouthwash work and others don't. All this information with out any pressure to purchase certain products! I truly felt like I was being given information and options, rather than feeling like my mechanic was up-selling me on parts I knew nothing about. Thanks for the great visit! read more

Been looking for my dentist for quite some time now and I have finally found it. When you walk in you will be greated by Audrey and Lillian and they were super nice and professional. I had some specific questions about my insurance and they answered all of it in detail and made me feel very comfortable. The office has a very nice vibe that feels "Austin". The Hygienest did a great job and was very gentle, my teeth were sparkling after it. Dr. Dave was very friendly and I felt that he was trustworthy and that he really cared. My coworker went in also and had a similar experience. All in all, was very impressed and wish there was an option to give 6 stars! read more

I really recommend Dr. Annie Hagan. She is the fourth dentist I have seen in Austin and the best so far. Very up to date on latest technologies to keep everyone Covid safe. She provided a private exam room and had me in early as the first patient of the day just to be extra safe. She fixed two problems that have bothered me for some time, including one other dentists missed. She came up with a plan for a third issue that has been a problem for twenty plus years. Courteous, kind, and super smart. Shout out to the receptionists and dental hygienists too who are always lots of positive energy. read more

This office has made me LOVE going to the dentist. Hands down, Dr. Dave and my hygienist were so incredibly nice and respectful. It's one thing to be respectful to your patients, but another thing to go out of your way to make them smile and feel comfortable in what normally is a nerve wrecking environment for most. They explain every single thing they're doing before or after doing it, and I've never had such a thorough experience like that. I've also never laughed and smiled at the dentist when having to get cleanings or cavities filled more than when I've gone to FFD on Burnet, specifically. They talked to me about life and were so personable. You can tell they love their job and the environment they work in, they all truly are happy loving people. It's funny to say, but I already can't wait to go back and visit them again! (Hopefully just for a cleaning ;)) read more

Dr. Dave and the team at Forest Family Dentistry - Burnet are very professional, helpful and considerate. It has been a long time since I walked out of a dentist office and felt like there was a noticeable difference. Dr. Dave, Marissa and BeTu explained in detail what was necessary and all communication was done ahead of time and in writing. There were no unexpected surprises. Maty was very helpful in scheduling and providing the necessary information. Again, thanks to Dr. Dave and team. read more
