The Oak Hills Dentistry waiting room in Spring, Texas, with armchairs, a stone feature wall and tall windows onto the trees

Designed for peace of mind, not just teeth.

A gentler dental experience

A calm room, an unhurried appointment, and treatment that stops the moment you ask it to.

Care planned before it is sold

Diagnosis, options and a written sequence, so you decide what happens with the full picture in front of you.

Owner

A practice under new ownership.

Oak Hills Dentistry has looked after families along Louetta Road for years. I took over as owner because I wanted a practice small enough to know people in, and established enough to have earned their trust already.

What I have changed is mostly about pace. Longer appointments. Diagnosis before treatment. A written plan you can take home and read. And an honest answer when the right thing to do is nothing at all yet.

The other change is depth. My post-doctoral training was in implantology, so missing and failing teeth get planned here (imaged, staged and verified) rather than referred out and handed back.

The atmosphere

Designed for serenity.

Warm wood, natural light and windows that look onto trees rather than a parking lot. Every photograph here is our actual office on Louetta Road.

The team

Who you will meet.

    Operations Manager

    Pat has been at Oak Hills Dentistry for over 30 years, and she is the first person you will meet when you walk in our door. She loves working with such a great team and seeing our patients every day. A native Houstonian, she has two children (a son and a daughter) that live nearby. She enjoys community service, entertaining her family, and enjoying live music. Her greatest joy, however, is working in different ministries within her church and deepening her personal relationship with God.
