Affiliations
Preventive Dentistry for Long-Term
Oral Health
Since 1983, Central Texas Dental Care has built its approach around a simple principle: the best dental care starts with prevention. Rather than waiting for problems to develop, our team works with you to protect your smile at every stage of life.
Routine cleanings and exams are the foundation, but our preventive services go further. We offer dental sealants to protect vulnerable teeth, fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel, and oral cancer screenings to catch concerns early. Each visit includes a thorough evaluation so our Waco, TX, dentists can identify issues before they become more complex and costly.
Patient education is central to everything we do. We take the time to help you understand your oral health, your options, and the steps you can take at home to maintain a healthy smile between visits.

Advanced Dental Technology in Waco, TX
Our commitment to staying at the forefront of dental technology means better results, greater comfort, and fewer appointments for our patients. At our Hewitt dental office, we invest in tools that make a real difference in your care.
Same-Day Crowns
Traditional crowns require multiple visits and weeks of waiting. With CEREC® technology, our dentists can design, fabricate, and place a custom ceramic crown in a single appointment. There are no messy impressions, no temporary crowns, and no second visit. You leave with a permanent, natural-looking restoration the same day.
LANAP Laser Gum Treatment
For patients dealing with gum disease, LANAP laser therapy offers a minimally invasive alternative to traditional gum surgery. The laser targets diseased tissue while preserving healthy gums, which promotes faster healing and less post-procedure discomfort.
Cone Beam 3D Imaging
Our cone beam scanner captures detailed three-dimensional images of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. This gives our Waco dentists the information they need to plan treatments like dental implants, extractions, and root canals with greater accuracy.
