Tilman Richards, Jr., D.D.S. is a general dentist in Corpus Christi, Texas and has been practicing here since 1984. He grew up in Alice, Texas and from there went to Sam Houston State University where he graduated with honors and received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. He continued his education at Baylor Dental School in Dallas where he received his degree as a Doctor of Dental Surgery. He is a member of the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association and the Nueces Valley District Dental Society. He is most proud to have been nominated by a patient and to have received the 2015 HealthCare Hero award for Dental Excellence.
In an effort to keep up with the ever-changing world of technology and the advances in dentistry today, both Dr. Richards and his entire staff regularly attend numerous training and educational seminars. Dr. Richards places a strong emphasis on providing the highest quality of care to all of his patients.
I am a registered dental hygienist and have enjoyed being a member of Dr. Richards team since September of 2018. I have been a dental hygienist since 2001, having received my Associates degree from Del Mar College. Educating our patients on the importance of achieving and maintaining healthy oral hygiene is my goal as a hygienist. I look forward to meeting new patients and the feeling of accomplishment, having them leave with a comfortable experience. I was born and raised here in Corpus Christi. I have been married to my husband, Ernest, for 18 years and have three stepchildren, Ernest Jr., Sarah, and Erik. On my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my husband, spending time with our family and reading.
I have worked with Dr. Richards since December of 2017. I have been a Registered Dental Assistant since 2011 and I genuinely love what I do. Helping patients feel comfortable in the dental chair and seeing patients smile again is a wonderful thing! I also feel very blessed to work with such an awesome team! On my time off, I love being outdoors. I love fishing, going to the beach and spending time with family and friends.
My name is Cristine Arguello. I was born in Beeville Texas but moved to Corpus Christi around age 7. I attended Del Mar College and received my Associates degree in Dental Hygiene in 2014. I have been married for 10 years and have 2 children. I look forward to getting to know our patients. My goal is to help our patients achieve and maintain ideal oral health by providing gentle cleanings and education about effective home care. On my days off I enjoy being outside and spending time with my family.

Don't be intimidated by the professionalism and fancy equipment. I have been there several times and he is not expensive. He treats you like patient and not a customer. I highly recommend this place especially if going to the dentist gives you anxiety.

Dr. Richards, Chelsea and the two ladies up front (I believe one is his wife) are wonderful! They make you feel welcome. The office is clean and decorated nicely. I have been a picky patient yet they never made me feel like I was asking too much. I was also able to get an appointment right away. Thank you for everything!

I've had bad experiences with dentists, so walking into any dentist office makes me uneasy. Even though I was as tense as can be, everyone was so nice and extremely thorough throughout my dental exam. They performed a miracle by putting me at ease. I'm gladly going back.

I've been seeing Dr. Richards for over 30 years. He's always been there for me, including caring for a dental emergency for a friend who was visiting from out of town on a Sunday. About 8 years ago he put porcelain crowns on all but one of my teeth because they were wearing down. He did an incredible job! My teeth look fabulous! My cousin, also a dentist, said he did a masterful job--and that Dr Richards has way more dental skills than he. His office staff are great and very friendly and also of high caliber. In my opinion, they don't come any better than Tilman Richards! John Carmichael, MD

All of my visits to Dr. Richards' office are excellent. My dental work is always well cared for by Dr. Richard's and an outstanding staff. Today, Dr. Richards and his staff took care of my dental issues, and were so nice. They all have a good bed side manner as well as outstanding dental knowledge. Another productive visit to Dr. Richards' office today. All visits to his office are helpful and reassuring for my dental needs. Outstanding dentist and outstanding staff.
