Gulfton is a dense pocket of apartments, school routes, and buses that meet at the Hillcroft Transit Center, with Bissonnet Street as the spine people already know. Texas Dental Center is about eight minutes from that center, at 9801 Bissonnet St Ste K, Houston, TX 77036. Households in ZIP codes 77081 and 77074 can reach the office by car along Bissonnet or by a short ride from the transit center without treating a dental visit like an outing to the far suburbs. Families in these buildings often share one car or time a visit between shifts. They ask for a dentist who can see a parent and a child in one trip, explain a cavity without jargon, and send them home with a clear date for the next cleaning. We do that in English and in Spanish. Many Gulfton parents prefer Spanish for the exam and English for a school form, or the reverse, and the same team can switch so the notes match what was said in the chair. Call (832) 831-9101 before you leave the transit center or the apartment gate and we will tell you whether a same-week family block is open. Hours are Monday–Friday 8:00 AM–6:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM–3:00 PM. The office is closed Sunday, so Sunday bus plans will not land on an open door.
Yes. The office is about eight minutes from the Hillcroft Transit Center at 9801 Bissonnet St Ste K, Houston, TX 77036. If you are coming from ZIP 77081 or 77074, call (832) 831-9101 and we will describe the Bissonnet approach before you transfer.
That is a common Gulfton request. Book the parent and the child in one block so you make a single trip. We are open Monday–Friday 8:00 AM–6:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM–3:00 PM, and we are closed Sunday.
Yes. Children are welcome, including a first cleaning and exam. We explain the brush, the mirror, and the polish before we start. If we find a small cavity, we talk about a filling in words a parent can repeat at home.
Call and say both things. We can examine the painful tooth, talk through a root canal or a crown if that is what the X-ray supports, and still see the children if the schedule was reserved for the family.
Yes. Texas Dental Center speaks English and Spanish. Tell us which language you want when you call (832) 831-9101, including for a child's exam and for any form you need to understand before you leave.
