No doubt best dentist experiences of my life. All staff at the Hills are helpful, personable and…read moreprofessional. Although I have received care from Dr. Winters, my primary dentist here is Dr. Grahl. He and his dental assistant have provided gentle, effective care, and the knowledge that they possess about state-of-the art dentistry is unparalleled to any other I've experienced. I've undergone general cleanings, laser therapy for gums, removal of amalgam fillings, partial porcelain crowns and am currently undergoing treatment with AGGA, which entails monthly visits for the next year at minimum. (I've also even received terrific massages here.) The environment at the office is smooth and relaxing, which is certainly not the norm in dentistry. (The aromatherapy always smells so nice, I can request the music in the exam room and even enjoy a hot neck wrap). All my questions are truly heard and satisfactorily addressed. I am confident that I am receiving the best care at the Hills and feel fortunate that they were able to take me on as a patient. Highly recommend!

Be very wary of places claiming they can "fix" all your TMJ/TMD problems…read more I was really looking forward to this appt, but unfortunately left feeling like I was being sold an extremely expensive solution rather than evaluated for a medical problem. The in-person consultation at Hills Dental was conducted by a "patient advocate," not a dental professional. Despite having chronic pain, I was told what was supposedly causing it without scans, imaging, or in-depth examination. The proposed treatments ranged from roughly $8k to $65k out of pocket--with no guarantee of results. They dismissed my dentist-provided custom mouthguard as "just a piece of plastic," then tried to sell me their own "special" plastic mouthguard for roughly 16x the cost. They acknowledged surgery is expensive with no guarantee, then offered a similarly expensive "non-surgical" alternative that also had no guarantee and wasn't covered by insurance. I understand that TMJ/TMD is complicated and that treatment isn't one-size-fits-all. But when you're dealing with chronic pain, it's dishearening to see practitioners selling $8K-$65K solutions without what felt like an appropriate diagnostic evaluation by an actual professional.

Great staff and a very nice location off of Capital of Texas highway. In terms of the aesthetic,…read morethe office has a nice minimalist look and a nice front desk as well. My favorite part about this dentist is that during my cleaning I was given a choice to pick a Tv channel to watch. Never before have I had this and I loved it because I didn't have to stare at the glaring light like at other dentists I experienced. In terms of the staff, the front desk personnel were very cheerful and welcoming despite it being 8AM in the morning. My tooth cleaner Cassidy did an amazing job at cleaning my teeth and made sure to let me know the spots where I need to brush more. Lastly, Dr. Ho the dentist was very detailed and made sure to give me a complete rundown of my teeth. He also described what my breathing canal looked like as well as a couple prone areas for cavities. Overall, I have no complaints and I was very satisfied with my experience here.

I live in Westlake, I work in Westlake, I have teeth, and I like eating at Hat Creek Burgers…read more For providing an important medical service at a convenient location with a baked-in excuse for yummy fast food, Dr. Ho should, in view of the above facts, be a slam dunk for a five star review. That said, I feel compelled to give Dr. Ho a three star review. Dr. Ho is a nice guy, and definitely seems to "know his teeth." However, to continue with the dental metaphors, the lingering taste in my mouth from my visit was one of irritation with the practice's inefficient, time intensive workflow, which IMHO, completely negates the convenience benefits of the practice's location, and for the reasons set forth herein, doesn't really make sense from either a dental care or business perspective. My routine cleaning and dental exam took over an hour to complete, with at least twenty five minutes spent poring over 3-D scans of my skull and teeth, and Dr. Ho discussing how the 3-D scan showed that one of my sinuses was fully blocked. (regrettably, the fact that only 50% of the cost of the 3-D imaging would be covered by my insurance was not part of the discussion). Fascinating stuff, that rundown on my nasal passages - but a bad use of my time when I'm breathing fine, my teeth don't hurt and I've got to run back home to ferry a toddler to daycare. Further, about 15 minutes into the discussion of 3-D scan of my head and teeth (including asides on the state of my sinuses), Dr. Ho went from being generally sanguine about my dental health to going back and forth as to whether he saw a cavity . From this, I conclude that there is some probability I have a cavity, and we should definitely keep a close eye on one or more of my teeth. By my math, my dental visit was made ~20-25 minutes longer and $150 more expensive than it needed to be due to the long winded review of the partially out-of-plan 3-D imaging. From a business and prophylaxis standpoint, the better move would have been to skip the 3-D imaging, and to the extent x-rays presented a tricky question of whether I have a cavity in need of attention, move up the date of my next checkup to keep an eye on my possibly latently janky tooth. We'd all win this way. I'd get back my precious time, insurance would have paid for everything, and Dr. Ho would easily recapture the revenue from the $%^&-ing out-of-plan 3-D scan in future cleanings and visits. Further, if routine cleaning/checkups proceeded quicker and did not include a partially out-of-plan 3-D scan as a matter of default, I'd be inclined to send the rest of my family to this practice, so we could all get our teeth done and go for burgers afterwards. But so long as such a visit would foreseeably take four-plus hours and cost me $600 for the uninsured portion of four 3-D scans, that's not a sensible option. That said, I'm a reasonable guy, and if presented with evidence of shorter visit times and making the 3-D imaging optional, I'd consider updating this review and returning to this practice, as Dr. Ho appears to be a thoroughly competent dentist with an uber-convenient location.

Gum grafts. I knew they were coming for me one way or another (thanks mom and dad). I got referred…read moreto Mike Williamson by my dentist and was initially apprehensive as he was out of network with my dental insurance, but went for a consult anyway. Dr. Williamson operates a very smooth-running practice. Every staff interaction I had (front desk, nurses, techs) was excellent and you can tell there's just good teamwork going on here. I made a special request for my surgical operation and was super grateful that Dr. Williamson was willing to accommodate it. He and Sarah had excellent bedside manner during my operation - it went quick and painless. The recovery was (somewhat predictably) miserable for the first week. I had a few questions about the discomfort I was experiencing and was so appreciative of the staff that went out of their way to proactively check in on me and get answers. They even reached out to Dr. Williamson about one issue on his day off which they didn't have to do. Just had my post-op today follow-up today, a couple weeks later, and everything is in great shape. Despite the challenges in recovery so grateful to have this out of the way and gums that are good to go (as Dr. Williamson put it) for life! Though the office will still bill insurance for you, I could have saved some money working with an in-network provider. However, I think this operation in particular benefits from Dr. Williamson's wealth of experience - my understanding is there's a lot of nuances in sourcing and shaping graft tissue. Some things are worth spending on!

He delivers a great dental service, is gentle, and makes a usually (historically for me anyway) painful and horrendous process easy and painless. You don't have to worry about your purse strings because he is also honest. His secretary and dental hygienists are also nice people and easy to talk to. It's like they genuinely want to be your friend. Furthermore, if you are afraid of drilling or having your teeth cleaned he has gas that can prevent anxiety. He will walk you through the process and make sure you're ok before he drills. I recommend him to everyone I know who needs a dentist. On another note, sometimes judging a good dentist/doctor has a lot to do with the company they keep. I'll repeat - his staff is excellent. All around a great experience. Trust this guy.

My family and I have been long-time patients with this dental clinic. When Dr. Hanle retired and…read moreDr. Dallas moved away, we were all very disappointed. Someone else would take over the practice, but a dental "hat trick" of finding three good family dentists in a row wasn't likely. Enter, Dr. Aldo Ronci. Ronci looks to be younger and therefore perhaps less experienced than he actually is. (I even asked him how old he was - if he was irked by such an intrusive question he was mature enough to conceal it.) I was happy that he didn't rush the visit, and showed genuine concern, not only about my teeth, but pocketbook too. Ronci's dental chair is extremely cushy. I don't know much else about dental equipment other than his looked advanced enough to do everything but cook dinner. Dentistry has come a long way since days of yore when dental drills were only slightly less jarring than a jack hammer. More importantly, I found Dr. Ronci's work to be meticulous and very nearly pain-free. He even managed to tame my dread of the Novocain needle (assisted by hygienist Denise's calming hand-pats). The front desk is manned by Cynthia and Lei, who greet each of the patients like the friends we have become.

They even did a same-day fit in for my friend who broke her tooth and fixed my friend's loose bracket on her braces that was visiting from PERU at no charge! 3) Dr. Ip- T.H.E. B.E.S.T. I've never been to a dentist that I've trusted more. He is SO honest and does not try to up-sell you. I've had so many concerns about my teeth and Dr. Ip takes the time to explain which ones I don't need to fret over and which ones are more pressing to correct. Go to SMILE 360!

She took X-rays and then told me the doctor who would come in to check the status of my teeth and gums and then move on to the cleaning. The dentist explained to me what needed to be done. She had the office manager check with my insurance and then they brought a quote of the price to sign for what I needed done. Nothing was done without my knowledge. I signed the paperwork and the cleaning began. When cleaning she noticed an issue with my enamel on a tooth and told me she could fix it. I asked about cost and if I needed to schedule a separate appointment. The office manager checked with my insurance again and gave me the quote. I agreed and they were able to fix my issue.
