When your dentist is using complicated jargon or pressuring you into receiving treatments you dont understand, it can make the entire process feel stressful and just plain overwhelming. When you visit Texas Dentistry, that wont ever happen. We always make sure that you understand your treatment options ahead of time and confirm that you know what we see inside your mouth. This way, you can feel confident about your decisions for treatment. You can rest knowing that when we provide a recommendation, we arent trying to upsell you or give you treatment that you dont want or need.
Not only are our dental professionals highly experienced, but they are trained to use some of the best and most advanced dental technology available in dentistry to date. Their goal is to make your experience as smooth and as comfortable as possible, which is why we only choose equipment and techniques that have been proven to be effective. You can rely on us to help you improve your smile and deliver high-quality results whenever you visit.
Youre never just another set of teeth or dollar sign when you visit Texas Dentistry. We care about each of our patients individually, which is why we always set aside time to get to know you better. Doing this ensures that we are confirming your precise needs and respecting the time youve allotted us once you arrive. Staying on schedule is crucial to our values at the dental office. The moment you walk in, our time is focused on you and your needs, regardless of the treatment.
Our team members are passionate about making a difference inside and outside of the dental office. We make an effort to participate in community events in Mesquite, including the Jubilee! Weve also worked with the Helen Edwards Early Childhood Center for many years, providing dental checks for those in need. To keep the community educated, weve also created presentations for health classes, which we perform at local schools. During these events, all the proceeds go towards oral hygiene kits to those in need in communities overseas. If you have an idea yourself, feel free to let us know! Were always looking for more ways to make a difference.
It all starts with Dr. Erik Harrington, who journeyed in his 1989 Ram Charger to provide Texas communities specialty treatments to patients in need. During these long, enlightening drives many years ago, he traveled from rural town to rural town to visit many different dental offices. As a result of these experiences, he found that the need for high-quality oral healthcare was incredibly strong, especially in these underserved communities. After that, he went on to form Texas Dentistry.
Dr. Harrington wanted to create a dental office where both families and individuals from suburban and rural communities outside of major cities like Dallas could access reliable and affordable dental care. More than anything, he wanted to help people improve not just their oral health, but their smile as well. Now that Texas Dentistry has dental offices in Terrell, Mesquite, and Kaufman, him and his team are that much closer to making his dream come true.
Ever since she was a young child, Dr. DeLeon really enjoyed going the dentists office. She found the environment to be very peaceful and calm! While in college, she ended up shadowing a dentist who told her about the strong need for minority/female dentists in the field as a way to help bridge the gap between patient populations. This inspired her to pursue this career, and the rest is history. Additionally, she comes from a long line of educators in her family, who also enthusiastically encouraged and supported her chosen job path.
After completing her undergraduate degree at Southwestern University, Dr. DeLeon pursued her doctorate at Texas A&M University College of Dentistry, where she was also a post-baccalaureate fellow. She is certified in Level 1 Minimal Sedation and Invisalign. She regularly attends continuing education courses to stay current with the latest developments in the field and further expand her clinical knowledge.
When she isnt busy caring for patients, Dr. DeLeon does Pilates, appreciates nature on long hiking trails, and goes on runs. She also loves tennis and has been playing since she was a kid. She has even played at the collegiate level before.
