'Dr Lindsay is great. There 's no way that going to the dentist for any sort of real work is going to be a fun experience, but that doesn 't mean the entire visit has to be unpleasant. The friendly greeting from the front office staff every time goes a long way. Dr Lindsay was happy to explain everything I had questions about in detail. My mouth is a lot happier now.'

'I do not like to go to the dentist !!!! Dr. Lindsay could not have been more supportive, helpful, and pain free. No anxiety, no fear....just fixed. His staff is very professional and almost fun to be around.'

'I had a great experience at this dental office. The place was clean, the environment was friendly, and the staff answered all of my questions in a very helpful way. I got a great cleaning too. I love how smooth my teeth feel after I have them cleaned!'

'Not only was this a wonderful experience but the people here are second to NONE! They were the most friendly staff I have ever met. They made everything easy and were pleasant and so nice. It was such a great experience I do not mind coming back to the dentist PLUS I had to wait (barely ANY time) and they gave me a Starbucks card for my wait. I mean who does that? They have MY business.'

A very welcoming staff, and sympathetic doctor. We devised a treatment plan and got procedures scheduled on the first visit. No "dental shaming" in this office, which is very refreshing.

As someone without dental insurance, I can really recommend Balcones Dental. They have a super affordable plan for 2 cleanings per year WITH the digital imagery included. I knew I needed a little work, in addition, and they were superb to work with. On those fillings, it was completely non-stressful and I even declined the nitrous. I saw Dr Luke Johnson and dental hygienist Michell - both amazing.

I had extreme anxiety after a past experience (not here) and the entire staff took my concerns and feelings very seriously. Dare I say, that it was a great experience? I felt cared for and the procedure went better than I could have imagined! Thank you!

At first I was very nervous, but the front desk was very nice. I had filled out the paperwork via computer so was all set to go. They double checked my insurance and I'm covered for two cleanings a year. Michelle, the hygentist, was super friendly and supportive. Dr Johnson was also very kind and friendly. I go back tomorrow to start crown work on a tooth that we were expecting to have trouble with, so not suprised. Look forward to a long and happy relationship with Balcones Dental! 10 thumbs up!!

I have been going to Balcones dental for about three years, and I've never had a negative experience there. Part of the reason why I like this place is that they don't try to upsell you on things Like whiteners and Invisalign. However, if you ask about those things they're willing to talk to you about them. They don't pressure you to do unnecessary dental work. The staff is always been polite and easy to communicate with. And they send you reminders through text messages. I highly recommend Balcones dental.
