What can I get done on a Saturday?
Saturday is a full working day for us, not a reduced menu. The same two dentists and team see you, and most treatment we offer during the week can be booked on a Saturday:
- Exams and cleanings, including deep cleanings for gum disease
- Tooth-colored fillings and root canals
- Crown and bridge visits — read about Saturday crown appointments
- Full and partial denture appointments for older adults and anyone who needs them
- Children’s cleanings, fluoride, sealants and fillings from the first tooth (about age 1)
Can I see a dentist on Saturday for an emergency?
Yes. If you break a tooth, lose a crown or wake up with a toothache on a Saturday, call (832) 612-2831 as early as you can. We see same-day emergencies between 9am and 3pm. We don’t have after-hours service (see whether emergency care is available after hours), so after 3pm on Saturday follow first-aid steps and call us Tuesday morning — or go to the ER for spreading facial swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, high fever, bleeding that won’t stop or a possible broken jaw. More on our emergency dental care page.
How much is a Saturday visit for new patients?
Saturday prices are the same as weekday prices. For new patients without insurance:
| New patient visit | Self-pay price |
|---|---|
| Limited exam + panoramic X-ray | $49 |
| Comprehensive exam + panoramic + intraoral X-rays | $99 |
| Comprehensive exam + X-rays + basic cleaning | $179 |
See all published dental prices. Anything else gets a written estimate before treatment.
Do you take insurance on Saturdays?
Yes. We accept most PPO plans and check your benefits before your visit, Medicare Advantage plans with dental benefits, and Texas Medicaid/CHIP for children through DentaQuest, MCNA and UHC Dental. See insurance. We accept Cherry, Sunbit and CareCredit for patient financing (see financing options), and you can use an FSA or HSA card for dental treatment.
How do I book a Saturday appointment?
- Book online at our booking page or call (832) 612-2831.
- Have your insurance card ready so we can check benefits before Saturday.
- Read our new patient guide so you know what to bring, and see photos of our office.
- For an emergency, call instead of booking online so we can find you a same-day time.
Saturday times tend to fill first, so booking a week or two ahead helps for routine visits. We speak English, Spanish, Gujarati and Hindi (información en español).
