'On behalf of Dr. Little and our entire staff, I would like to thank you for taking the time to visit our website. Our cosmetic and general dentistry practice, located right here in Waco, Texas, is designed to offer our patients the most technologically advanced dental experience possible, in a friendly, comfortable atmosphere.
The goal of our office is to treat our patients dental needs comprehensively. With the use of advanced diagnostic tools such as low radiation digital x-rays, intraoral cameras, and Diagnodent laser cavity detection aids, Dr. Little and I are able to provide our patients with a comprehensive treatment plan designed to correct any problem areas caused by decay or periodontal disease, while also providing esthetic solutions for any cosmetic areas of concern.
Waco Family Dentistry began in 1975 when Dr. Steven Little left the Air Force and moved back to his hometown in Waco, TX. During his years of solo practice, he focused on building a practice based on comprehensive care- treating the whole patient instead of just treating emergencies.
Over the years the practice grew, and in 2005, Dr. Zachary Schwab joined the practice. Having practiced in Fort Worth for a couple of years as an associate for different Dentists, Dr. Schwab was ready to settle into a practice long term. Dr. Littles philosophy of comprehensive care is what drew Dr. Schwab an hour and a half south to Waco and its where his family has called home since!
As new advances in technology and techniques have emerged, the practice has evolved adding digital x-rays, laser therapies to better improve our patients periodontal health and Sleep Apnea therapy for those who have a sleep breathing disorder and cant tolerate a CPAP.
While the practice has always been family oriented, that message became lost over time, so in 2016 Dr. Schwab changed the name of the practice to Waco Family Dentistry to emphasize our philosophy of treating families, not just adults. Dr. Little is proud that he has spent his career taking care of generations of Wacoans, and Dr. Schwab strives to continue with that focus. It is our reward and our privilege to see families and kids grow and transform, or to have patients that we saw as kids bring their kids in!
For our existing patients, we absolutely appreciate your patronage over the last 40 years, and for those who are considering us, we hope you give us the chance to provide your family with happy healthy smiles for years to come!
