Over a two-day period, I was scheduled at Castle Dental for a deep cleaning...technically known as…read moreScaling and Root Planing. This deep cleaning is a more intensive procedure than a standard cleaning and is typically recommended when a dentist finds pockets between your teeth and gums. My deep cleaning was broken down by Castle Dental into two appointments (Wed top teeth and May bottom teeth) to manage comfort and numbing. First the hygienist used a topical anesthetic to numb my gums using a Q-tip with numbing solution and then the dentist injected another anesthetic into my gums...about 8 pricks. Then, the hygienist used an ultrasonic scaler to remove plaque and tartar from the tooth surface and below the gumline. Next she used a metal tool to remove any plaque and tartar not caught by the ultrasonic scaler. She also did root planing, which smooths out the roots of your teeth. This helps the gum tissue reattach to the tooth and makes it harder for bacteria to grow in these areas in the future. My teeth were flossed by the hygienist. Finally, antibiotics were inserted into the gum pockets. The first day the process took about one hour. The process is expensive, but appears to be necessary.

I got referred…read moreto Mike Williamson by my dentist and was initially apprehensive as he was out of network with my dental insurance, but went for a consult anyway. Dr. Williamson operates a very smooth-running practice. Every staff interaction I had (front desk, nurses, techs) was excellent and you can tell there's just good teamwork going on here. I made a special request for my surgical operation and was super grateful that Dr. Williamson was willing to accommodate it. He and Sarah had excellent bedside manner during my operation - it went quick and painless. The recovery was (somewhat predictably) miserable for the first week. I had a few questions about the discomfort I was experiencing and was so appreciative of the staff that went out of their way to proactively check in on me and get answers. They even reached out to Dr. Williamson about one issue on his day off which they didn't have to do. Just had my post-op today follow-up today, a couple weeks later, and everything is in great shape. Despite the challenges in recovery so grateful to have this out of the way and gums that are good to go (as Dr. Williamson put it) for life! Though the office will still bill insurance for you, I could have saved some money working with an in-network provider. However, I think this operation in particular benefits from Dr. Williamson's wealth of experience - my understanding is there's a lot of nuances in sourcing and shaping graft tissue. Some things are worth spending on!

I was in a period in my life where I did not have dental insurance so I was a cash pay patient. When I went in the last time, they insisted that I have x-rays and that if I didn't, they were not "running the business as they were taught ". So as it turns out, Dr. Peters wouldn't even clean my teeth! She talked to me like I was an errant child who was misbehaving. I have never experienced anything like this in my life. I reached out to the owner of the practice and she called me back and apologized for how things happened and even offered to do the x-rays for free. Although I greatly appreciate that, I have no desire to go back and have to see Dr. Peter's. So I advise if you go to this practice make sure you have health insurance or unlimited money because people who don't are not really welcome.

In the chair, Dr. Shah's upbeat energy and meticulous focus transformed my nerves into relief. He walked me through each step, laid out clear choices (no upsells, no pressure), and eased the sensitivity with a gentle, confident touch that made it obvious I was in expert hands. If you're after genuine care, transparent options, and a dentist who respects your time, comfort, and wallet, look no further than Dr. Shah and the Austin Dental Arts team.
