DO NOT GO HERE!!!! I wish I could leave negative stars. This place is an absolute scam. They had my insurance information for weeks. When I came in for my appointment I was told my insurance had been verified. Had a normal cleaning (shoutout to the hygenist who was great) and 2 minute "exam" by the dentist. Paid $35 for a flouride treatment "because it's not covered by my insurance". sometime later I received a bill in the mail for $430. Called to find out what was wrong. Come to find out they are out of my insurance network. DO NOT GO HERE!!!! read more

So sad that Dr. P sold his practice at this location. He was such a well respected member of the Lake Travis community, and adored by all for both his personality and exceptional skills as a dentist. We miss you! I have contacted the office on 3 occasions since the transition and the staff is nonresponsive and completely unhelpful. Please note other reviews in regards to the "new" dentist. Ugh. I'm on the hunt! read more

Dr. Toor was amazing. I recently had some fillings done and he made the whole experience very comfortable. He is extremely knowledgeable and clearly very talented at what he does. He took the time to explain everything and made sure I felt at ease during the procedure. I'm really grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend him! read more

As a long-time Texan, engineering professional, and veteran, I was deeply impressed by the professionalism and compassion shown throughout my experience. They were exceptionally veteran-friendly, took the time to understand my needs, and went the extra mile to provide outstanding service and support. Their attention to detail and commitment to helping veterans like myself made a real difference, and I sincerely appreciate the respect and care they demonstrated from start to finish. Thank you Dr. Toor and all the staff at Lake Travis Dentistry. read more

I was originally Dr Panahi's patient, but I've had nothing but good experiences with the new team over the past few years. They are all highly skilled, friendly, professional and, best of all, empathetic. Dr Dodson is a perfectionist - definitely the Michelangelo of the porcelain crown - and all my injections have been painless, which is a huge bonus. Being able to get a crown in 2 hours from start to finish works with my schedule, especially being able to catch up on TV programs or listen to music while I wait. Great family atmosphere! read more

I wish I could add more stars to my review! I reached out to Dr. Tor this week with an emergency situation that involved a lot of pain. He showed true compassion and urgency and adjusted their schedule to get me in the very next day. I firmly believe that my issue would not have been handled with more care and attention to my comfort than if my own mother was my dentist. Drs. Tor and Dodson and their crew, who count my wife, kids and mother in law as patients are the most professional and client oriented practice you could hope for. In terms of diagnostics, technology, explanation of options, and execution of procedures, I know they are the best. I am confident that they will always put my family's health first, and they have my complete trust. read more

New to Lake Travis Dentistry and had a great experience. The staff is the friendliest I've met in any medical profession and were very good at explaining every step of the process! Highly recommend! read more

Be aware, they are not in-network for anyone, you will pay out of pocket for everything and if you get reimbursed, it will be 60 days before you see a check. Not cool and EVERYONE should be informed of this but they don't tell you. read more

Dr Panahi evidently sold his practice to Kirpal Toor in July or August 2022. When I arrived for a cleaning in Oct / Nov 2022, there was no dental hygienist available to complete the job. Following a rather simplistic office visit which was cursory at best (with Dr Toor substituting for the hygienist), I called to complain. Dr Panihi returned my call and stated "there would / will be no charge". Subsequently, I learned that Dr Toor submitted a charge in excess of $300 which went against my insurance. After changing to a new dentist, I requested upon multiple occasions to have my records forwarded to a new dentist that had been recommended, however, nothing transpired for several weeks. Called subsequently and suggested a complaint would be filed with the Texas Dental Board, and, finally, they were forthcoming. Suggest you avoid Lake Travis Dentistry as the "new guy" seems to in it only for the money. read more

Cosmetic services are sub-par. Office staff are rude. Dr Toor is unresponsive to customer's requests for communication. Stay away from this practice! read more

Love this place after one visit. Dr Riar is amazing. I have had cosmetic procedures from the best in the business and she ranks at the very top. read more

Wow: it is so refreshing to be able to write a positive reveiw about such an incredible experience. Who says going to the dentist is an incredible experience. This office will tell you, I am a dentist's worst nightmare. After two appointments and a very comprehensive examination and cleaning, I knew they would tell me what I didn't want to hear. An extraction and and implant needed, plus a filling. Today, it all took place in one session. It was a very traumatic day for me, and I fear little. These folks were incredible from start to to finish. 2 hours later it was all done and I felt like I was treated like royalty. The doctor is so personable and accommodates you and your individual needs. The best is, now at home, 6 hours later, and I have zero pain, no meds and zero bleeding. These guys are both highly experienced, professional and personable. I cannot recommend this team more than what I have already stated.. The office environment looking over the hill country, is so inviting too. read more

This is not a good dental office if you are chemically sensitive. The space reeked of perfume from a scented candle and I could not stay for my first appointment. read more

I moved to Austin in 2013 and it took me a while to find a dentist. I went to Dr. Panahi and my search has been long over. I've been going to this office for 4 years now. I have had several procedures including a crown and fillings and I know I am in the highest level of care. The entire staff is on point for every visit. From the dental hygienist to the front desk, they are more than just courteous, they are engaging and remember you. They work with my insurance directly and the best part, they assist with the planning of any procedure both financially and logistically. It is your schedule, your timing. They tell you upfront what's out-of-pocket and what your insurance will cover. There have never been any hidden costs. They are also impressive when it comes to their knowledge and experience working with the insurance companies. I do not have to deal with any of the difficult administration. If you are looking for a dentist in the NW of Austin, I cannot recommend Dr. Panahi and the Lake Travis Family Dentistry enough. It IS as good as it gets! read more

I am so sorry to report that this practice has changed owners. The new owner is not standing behind commitments or payments made to Dr Panani. We are working to get my daughters treatment completed without paying more. I will update my post when I hear back. They are not answering phone calls nor returning calls thus far. read more

What a wonderful experience I had at my first appointment with Dr Josh Dodson at Lake Travis Family & Cosmetic Dentistry! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and comfortable. The front desk staff was very upbeat and friendly. They made me feel at ease from the moment I walked in. Dr.Dodson was equally friendly and very professional. He took time to explain my dental health and what to watch for in the future. I could tell he was sincerely interested in my dental care and needs. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and thoughtfully. He did not rush thru my exam. My husband also saw Dr Dodson. During the dental examination, Dr. Dodson caught a medical issue that he felt my husband needed to follow up with our primary caregiver. My husband did follow up with our PCP & the tests revealed he has a condition that will require medication for the rest of his life! My husband runs marathons; looking at him you would think he was in excellent health. We had no idea there was something underlying going on. Thank you Dr Dodson for such thorough dental care! It is clear this practice truly cares about the wellbeing of their patients. I'm so glad/grateful we found Lake Travis Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. read more

While they were all very friendly, it seemed as though they were not transparent with pricing. It seemed to be more about how much money they could make rather than what was best for the patient. My husband went there for a routine cleaning and was told he needed a deep clean with a laser that would cost $250 and could not be billed to insurance. He scheduled this- turns out that could not have been further from the truth. it was $250 PER QUADRANT of the mouth so... $1000 and they did, in fact, bill to insurance- this one deep clean has exhausted ALL OF OUR DENTAL INSURANCE FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR and we still need a root canal and a crown that will now be paid out of pocket. Again- when scheduling this deep clean we were told the flat price of $250. When called to ask, they gave him the runaround of how they try to make it as affordable for patients, etc. Well, clearly not. We are so disappointed in their service. We strongly advise against coming here. read more

My family and I have been patients there for years and have always recommended them to all our friends and family, but they are no longer the same group we had grown to love. I was called at 5 pm the night before I was supposed to have my implant post put in and told that they would not be doing the procedure. They told me that Dr David is on a long vacation and the doctor that is there won't do it. They also told me they do not know when Dr David will be back so I get the impression that this may be a permanent change. This is so disappointing and unprofessional. I have been waiting so long to get this procedure done and been through so much with it that this was just devastating. My family and I will be searching for a new practice that cares for their patients and doesn't leave them high and dry like this. I guess I should also explain that what makes it so bad is that I just went there recently to have an evaluation done as well as my cleaning. If I had known that they weren't going to do the work I would have saved my money and gotten that done somewhere else that would be willing to do the service. Additionally, I already requested the day off work so now I'm out even more! Once again, truly unprofessional and disappointing. read more

Highly recommend this dentist! I just moved here and I haven't had a cleaning since the fall of last year. They scheduled me within 2 weeks and they stagger patients so that you don't come into contact with anyone else. So great job scheduling! The staff were friendly, the assistant and technician knowledgeable and skilled in their professions, and the Dr. didn't upsell anything. I was never asked if I wanted my teeth bleached, veneers, etc... I liked that they asked you on a patient form if you wanted additional information on any elective treatments/procedures and so I got exactly what I came for and never was pressured into anything else. I had a great cleaning and an exam. My next cleaning is already scheduled! read more

I would highly recommend Lake Travis Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. Dr. Toor and Dr. Dodson were very professional and nice. They both performed procedures on me and I was very pleased with their work. The location and office is incredible, clean, and provides an excellent atmosphere to have any dental procedure. The staff is extremely courteous and professional. Kudos and well done. read more

Dr. Panahi & his staff are wonderful! When my husband got another job, our insurance changed & we had to change dentists after going to the same one for 15 years. Well that was quite unsettling to say the least. So, I did some research & found out about Dr. Panahi. Both my husband & I went for a new patient checkup & a cleaning. He & his staff couldn't be more professional gentle & kind. Plus with Covid, his office had to take on even a higher level of hygiene & patient care. His practice hit all gold stars. If you're looking for a new dentist & hygienist, well look no further! You've come to the right place. read more

I've been seeing Dr Panahi for 5 years now and he is one of the most kind, companionate and gentle Dentists I have ever been to. He is also very honest, telling you what you don't need as far as certain procedures, and saving you so much money. His staff are exceptional as well and so very friendly. He has moved to a new location up by the Aquarius Dog kennel and training and has a two story building that feels more like a home than a Dentist office. Upstairs there is a 'suite' with a beautiful view! He takes care of my special needs daughter and was so incredibly gentle with her when she needed fillings. He administering the Novocain shots and she barley flinched. My daughter tried repeatedly to get up and leave and he granted her all the time she needed to get comfortable. I would definitely recommend Dr Panahi for all your dental needs! read more

I just had the most amazing experience. My schedule was accommodated and everyone was so nice and professional. My cleaning was fast and easy and what could have been a stressful visit was such a bright spot in my day. read more

On my way to Austin for business I chipped a crown. I called Dr. Panahi, who got me in the next day. Dr. Panahi and his staff were very friendly and welcomed me in the office as if I was a long time patient. The doctor fixed me up so I could finish my business in town. If I lived in Austin, he and his team would be my go-to dentist! read more

I can not say enough good things about Dr. David and his staff!! From the moment you arrive they take care of you, explain what to expect and make you feel comfortable. My husband had a molar extracted and through out the whole procedure Dr. David was explaining to us what was going on and what he was doing. Esme made my husband feel comfortable and safe and was such a sweetie! The whole staff is great! Needless to say we have a new family dentist. read more

Dr. Panahi is the best in Lakeway! A pain-free dentist and there are not many of them. The office staff maintains a very professional environment. They handle all of the insurance filing and any corresponding information. Thank you! read more

I was attending a medical conference in Austin and thought to get a dental check up on my free time since I was experiencing some dental problems and needed a second opinion. A friend recommended Lake Travis Family and Cosmetic dentistry. Oh my God what a clean and super technologically advanced office. The staff were very friendly and nice. I had a very pleasant experience. Dr. Panahi was very professional and patient. I had many questions about my implants and gum which were all answered. I had a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend this dental office!! Mariam read more

I had a checkup and a couple of filings done with Dr. Panahi and couldn't be more satisfied. He was very thorough and gentle with his work. His staff is wonderful and the experience was great. I trust and highly recommend this office! Allan. read more

I'm from lakeway and found Dr.P a couple years ago and since have moved into town but happily travel back out to LT simply because I know I'm always taken care of here. Routine cleanings are as enjoyable as I suppose they can be.. Never feel rushed and always have adequate doc time post cleaning unlike other practices I've been to. Dr.P saved me and came in during closed hours to help assist my grill in the aftermath of an awful car accident. I'll forever be grateful! read more

This place is fantastic! I would recommend it to anyone! I hadn't been to the dentist in close to 7 years. The last dentist visit that I remember I had a whole lot of fillings! To be honest, I was nervous! Mainly about the long expected list of all the things that were wrong with my mouth! My wisdom teeth had been bothering me for quite some time so I began to do a little research online and came across Lake Travis Dentistry. After seeing all the great reviews I decided to schedule an appointment for a teeth cleaning and exam. The day of my appointment I am immediately greeted by Audrey (the girl I had talked to when scheduling my exam). She was just as friendly and helpful as she was on the phone. I signed a few papers, she had me sit in the waiting room for no more than 5 minutes and the hygienist took me back to get started! Also, I don't really know how important this is...but I really liked that they didn't have a big glass window you would awkwardly have to stand in front of hoping someone notices that you are there. I hate those things. Awkwarddddd... Everything is very clean, organized and up to date. All their equipment looks brand new and in every room there is a decently sized flat screen television on a retractable arm so you can watch while you get any work done. The reclining chairs are also pretty comfortable. The hygienist was very kind and gentle. She was very cautious to make sure that I felt comfortable the whole time. I feel like a lot of times when people work hands-on like that they can at times forget that they are actually working on a person. So, I appreciate the fact she didn't forget about me! Haha! THE EXAM...dun, dun, dun...Dr. Panahi was very friendly and thorough with the exam. He went over my x-rays and suggested I'd get 3 of my wisdom teeth removed and four of my fillings would be replaced. A few weeks later, I came in for the first half of procedures I needed to get done (1 wisdom tooth extraction and 2 fillings). Both him and his assistant made sure to keep me as comfortable as possible through out the procedures. One thing that I really appreciated was the fact that he made sure to explain what he was going to do and why. I did not have many questions for him in the end because he had already answered all of them! The following month(today) I got 2 more fillings and 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled and I got the same great service I did last time, not to mention, they actually remembered who I was. They have a very nice and personable staff. And...HELLO! The work looks great and all of my extractions are healing up nicely. So, if you are looking for a knowledgeable, clean and friendly dentist office...THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO! My anticipated "horrible experience" was the complete opposite of what I was expecting! I am just relieved I finally got it all over with and found myself a great dentist! read more

Lake Travis Dentistry provided the best dental experience I've ever had. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. Dr. Panahi was patient, informative and very gentle. I have a mouth full of troubled teeth and sensitive gums, and Dr. Panahi and his assistant made sure I had no pain at all during my exam and cleaning (a first!). I have to say that watching even lame daytime TV during an exam eased my anxiety and was a very nice touch. To top it off, the dental assistant kindly answered all my questions about gum recession, bacteria, flossing, etc., which is more info than I've ever gained from dental visits in the past. My son is now going here and had a great experience as well (he loved watching cartoons during his cleaning, of course). The receptionist welcomed him and made him feel at ease, and his exam and cleaning were quick and painless. Dr. Panahi showed me my sons panoramic xray and took the time to explain what we were looking at. No further services were needed for him, thankfully! I highly recommend LT Dentistry. read more

Dr. Panahi and his staff were absolutely wonderful! Hands down the best experience I've had at a dentist office. They took me in as soon as I arrived without wait. Esmeralda was sweet, friendly, knowledgable while taking my x-rays and assisting the Doc. Dr. Panahi explained all of my options and z-rays thoroughly and was extremely gentle during my exam, sensitive tooth and all. Hilary at the front desk was great explaining my treatment and payment options. I'll admit, visiting the dentist has always been a dreaded experience but no more! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

What a wonderful Team Dr. Panahi has! From reception to the chair and walking out they make you feel welcome and well taken care of! Ive been coming here for a year now, and following Dr. P's recommendations has helped me improve my dental hygiene markedly. read more

Friendly staff, great service, very clean and comfortable office. I had a filing done today after my regular cleaning. It was done quickly and without any pain. I'm happy my family has found this place for all our dental needs! read more

I had the good fortune of working with Dr. Panahi for over a year. I was also treated by him. He has the most pleasant demeanor and I trust his work and advice. I highly recommended him for anyone looking for a family dentist. read more

Great team! Welcoming receptionist and very nice team. Dr. David explains and is thorough with what he is doing. I'm so glad I found them!

I went to Lake Travis Dentristy after a bad experience with another dentist in SW Austin; since I have Delta Dental insurance, that was a consideration, as I wanted to select an in-network provider. My issue with the other dentist was not with him but with his hygienist who was rude and obnoxious, and oblivious to my requests to elevate my head (due to acid reflux), even when I started choking in the middle of the cleaning. Most of my dental needs right now are regularly scheduled cleanings, so having a personable and supportive hygienist is a top priority. Megan and Michelle at Lake Travis Dentistry have been wonderful. They had no issues elevating my head and only wanted to know what elevation worked best for me. They are considerate, accommodating, and respectful, and I hope they stay there, since I have no desire to ever go elsewhere. read more

Dr. Panahi is awesome. I'll am so glad I discovered Lake Travis Dentistry!! The facilities are modern, there's even a TV in the procedure rooms, and the staff is wonderful. I had 3 fillings redone. It was painless, he explained what was happening & I never felt scared or nervous. I highly recommend them & will be a patient for like. read more

Dr.Panahi and his team were outstanding and exceeded my expectations with my recent visit. After finishing my new patient paperwork they saw me right away! His team was very professional and knowledge every step of the way. I would highly recommend them to anyone look for the Dentist in the Austin area. read more

I hadn't been to a dentist in a few years when I went here for a cleaning. Dr. Panahi and the staff were very helpful and caring. What I really liked was that they explained what they were doing and took the time to answer my questions. It made going to the dentist a much nicer and friendlier experience than I had experienced in the past with other dentist offices. Because the experience was so pleasant, I have decided to keep up with regular cleanings! read more
