Lubbock Family Dental Services
A healthy smile is something we all want to have. That’s why we’re committed to providing high-quality affordable dental care for our patients to help them keep their teeth healthy and beautiful.
From routine cleanings and checkups to advanced procedures like implants, crowns, and bridges, we have the expertise needed to treat a wide range of dental problems at our comfortable and clean dental office. We provide a variety of dental services, including regular and deep cleanings that will leave your mouth feeling fresh and looking great!
At W Dentistry, we take the time to get to know you as more than just our patient and work closely with you to create a care plan that perfectly fits your schedule, budget, lifestyle, and smile goals. From the moment you walk through our doors, our team will ensure you feel at ease and will answer any questions you may have during your time at our office. During your initial visit, our friendly team will examine your digital x-rays to construct a customized oral health plan to maximize the health of your smile. We will also provide essential tips to maintain your oral health at home to prevent cavities to maintain your new healthy smile.
Preventative
The key to excellent oral health is early detection of decay and early intervention! The sooner our team of highly-trained dentists finds a problem, the faster they can prevent that problem from developing into something more serious or unfixable. At W Dentistry, our goal is to maintain your oral health and improve your overall smile for years to come. To achieve optimal dental wellness, we recommend two yearly teeth cleanings and an oral exam with our dentists at least once a year.
Fillings
The truth is, you can’t always prevent tooth decay. There are so many factors that contribute to it – genetics, diet, medications, environment, and more. Cavities affect most Americans at some point in their lives – over 95% of adults have had at least one! Fortunately, we know how to remove decay and restore your teeth to their natural form and function. We offer composite (resin, metal-free) fillings, and can do amalgam (metal) fillings when indicated. Sometimes, more than a filling is needed to restore a tooth. In these cases, we can provide inlays, onlays, or crowns in porcelain or metal.
Cosmetic Dentistry
The Smile of Your Dreams is obtainable with the help of our cosmetic-minded dentists at W Dentist. We offer a range of services for patients who want to improve the appearance and function of their teeth. Our knowledgeable staff will take the time to get to know you and your smile goals, then create an individualized treatment plan that fits your needs – all with the goal of helping you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile!
We also know that cosmetic dentistry isn’t just about the way your smile looks. Misaligned teeth, cracks, chips, and gaps can negatively affect your day-to-day life by affecting your speech and ability to eat your favorite foods. It’s time to take your comfort and confidence back to feel better about your smile, and you’ll be amazed at what can be accomplished with the help of our incredible team at your local Lubbock dental office!
Implant Dentistry
Living day-to-day life with one or more missing teeth can affect the overall look and feel of your smile, and that is why, at W Dentistry, we want you to get your smile back. We focus on providing safe, natural-looking implants that look, feel, and function like your original teeth. When you visit W Dentistry, we will walk you through your options, help you decide if dental implants are the right choice for you, and use the latest dental technology to determine the size, number, and shape of the implants you need to get your smile back!
Dentures
It is time to take back control of your smile! Whether lost due to decay, accident, injury, or the natural aging process, missing teeth affect the way you look and feel. Additionally, they can lead to lifelong health problems, including an increased risk of gum disease and irreversible bone loss in the jaw.
Fortunately, at W Dentistry, we offer high-tech and custom-made dentures designed to look great and restore the health and function of your smile!
We offer implant-supported prostheses to help restore a single missing tooth or an entire arch of missing teeth. By placing implants into your mouth before we place your new denture on top, it will provide a foundation that lasts and doesn’t require any adjustments over time like traditional dentures do! This means no more worrying about adjusting them with every bite; they stay put until you remove them.
Teeth Whitening
Do you want to brighten up your smile? You’ll be surprised at how easy it is to get the perfect white smile you’ve always been wanting. At W Dentistry, we will create a whitening treatment plan to get the results you want in a timely manner so you can show your healthy, clean and beautiful smile to the world.
Although lifestyle choices can cause some tooth staining, it can also just be inevitable. Roughly 80% of Americans wish they had whiter teeth, and at W Dentistry, that dream can become a reality! We offer take-home and in-office whitening options, and we will help you find the right one just for you.
Prior to beginning a whitening routine, it is important to have a dental exam so we can fix any issues that might be made worse by whitening and so that your custom-made whitening trays will fit correctly for many years.
Tooth Extraction
Do you think you may need a tooth extraction? You may have some anxiety or feel nervous about the process, but we are here to help and guide you step-by-step to find the best course of treatment for you. We will take every course of action to ensure your anxieties are relieved and you feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire process.
First, before we even begin, we will exhaust every possible restorative procedure to save your tooth before deciding on tooth extraction. However, in some cases, tooth extraction may be the best option to help you, and if that is the case, we will help you feel comfortable and empowered about your decision to choose the treatment plan for your dental health.
Sleep Apnea & Snoring
If you suffer from sleep apnea, getting successful treatment is crucial to avoid dangerous health consequences down the road. At W Dentistry, we can help you with oral appliances that will ease your snoring and sleep apnea symptoms. We offer a variety of different treatment plans to reduce your apnea episodes, to help you sleep, breathe and feel more rested.
TMJ Disorder
If you suffer from tooth pain, muscle aches, or headaches in the morning, or if your partner complains that sound like you’re chewing on rocks while you sleep, you might be clenching or grinding your teeth at night. At W Dentistry, we can determine WHY you’re clenching or grinding and design the right treatment plan to give you relief from the symptoms of this destructive habit and to protect your teeth from the long-term damage it causes. Treatment options include nightguards to protect your teeth and relieve stress in your jaw joint and Botox injections to relax the muscles that cause you to clench and grind your teeth.
Sedation Dentistry
If having a dental procedure coming up gives you anxiety, dental sedation at W Dentistry may be the right option for you. We believe that our patients should never have to experience anxiety or worry when it comes to getting the proper dental care, and we provide sedation for a variety of different procedures at a variety of different sedation levels. If you would like to explore this option more, mention it at your next appointment to learn more, or we can can provide other ways to relieve your dental anxiety before any procedure.
Root Canal
If your tooth has a cavity or is injured or fractured, the nutrient canal in the root system can become susceptible to inflammation or bacterial infection. This can kill the tooth’s inner pulp and cause an inflammatory reaction and pressure, leading to pain and bone degeneration. At W Dentistry, we can help. If you can come to see us in the early stages of this condition, we can save your tooth by performing root canal therapy. Our goal is to preserve the health of your natural teeth whenever possible.
Emergency Dentistry
An emergency can happen when you least expect it, but at W Dentistry we are here to help. We are dedicated to providing quality, comprehensive and urgent dental care for our patients who need it most. We have the availability and expertise to aid you if you’re experiencing pain and get you back to dental stability.

Pediatric Dentistry
The first time a child visits the dentist is an overwhelming experience for the child as well as most parents. The good news is that children’s dentistry has come a long way in recent years, and many of the fears associated with going to the family dentist are no longer realistic. At W Dentistry, we offer preventive and restorative care for your child during every visit, and we take great pride in helping children feel comfortable at our office!
Clear Aligner Orthodontic Dentistry
Would you like a straighter smile without having to have metal braces? Clear aligner braces might be the right option for you because they’re discreet, easy to maintain, and are able to minimize the risk of dental decay. Call W Dentistry today to schedule a consultation to see if clear aligner braces are a right fit for you.
FAQ's About General Dentistry
Why do regular dental visits matter?
What can I expect on my first visit?
What insurance companies are you contracted with?
Because we accept dental insurance on an indemnity basis, you will need to pay for your services before we can begin any dental work. We accept cash, credit or one of our convenient financing options. Your insurance company will then reimburse you within a few weeks.
