A Practice That Fits a Younger Corner of Dallas
Mountain Creek is one of the younger parts of the city, with Dallas Baptist University on the hilltops above Mountain Creek Lake. The university describes its setting as the hill country of southwest Dallas, in the western reaches of Dallas County. Between the campus and a relatively young population, plenty of neighbors are students or early in their careers.
That stage of life brings a particular set of dental questions. Who do you see now that you have aged out of a parent's plan? What do you do about wisdom teeth that have started to ache? How do you pay for care without dental insurance through work?
Those are questions we are glad to answer. A new patient exam gives you a full picture of where your teeth stand, and our in-house membership plan covers routine care for patients without insurance. You leave the first visit with a plan, not a pile of surprises.
Local landmarks range from the soccer fields at Mountain Creek Lake Park to the Mountain Creek Branch Library on Mountain Creek Pkwy. The Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery and The Potter's House are also part of the local landscape, and Joe Pool Lake is a short drive away.
Wisdom Teeth, Whiter Smiles and Straighter Teeth: Mountain Creek Priorities
Wisdom teeth are often the first real dental problem of adulthood. They can come in crowded, partly erupted or fully impacted, and they sometimes cause swelling or pressure in the back of the jaw. Our CBCT 3D imaging gives a three-dimensional view of each wisdom tooth and the bone around it.
When removal makes sense, Dr. Hayer handles wisdom teeth extraction in our office, with sedation options for patients who feel anxious. Before you head home, we walk you through what the next few days of healing look like. Planning the removal around a break in classes or a lighter work week makes recovery much easier.
Cosmetic goals come up often with younger patients, too. A job interview, a graduation or a wedding is a common reason to brighten a smile. Our in-office Zoom® teeth whitening is a professional treatment for deeper stains than store products usually reach.
Crowding or gaps that a teenager once ignored can start to bother an adult. Dr. Hayer has completed advanced training in clear aligner therapy, and every aligner case starts with a digital scan of your teeth and bite. The aligners are removable, so they work around meals, presentations and photos.
Busy schedules take a quiet toll as well. Late study nights, sweet coffee drinks and snacking between classes keep teeth exposed to sugar and acid for hours at a time. Sipping water between drinks and keeping two cleanings a year on the calendar go a long way toward avoiding fillings later.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is SpringCrest Dental from Mountain Creek, and how do I get there?
Plan on about 21 minutes for the 11-mile drive from Dallas Baptist University. Take Spur 408 south across I-20, continue on Clark Rd and Old Straus Rd, then follow FM 1382 onto East Belt Line Rd. Students and neighbors who want a dentist near Mountain Creek can make the whole trip without a single toll road.
Is there a dental plan for college students with no insurance?
Yes, college students qualify for our $450 Adult membership plan, which is built for patients 13 and older without dental insurance. It covers two cleanings, all periodic, comprehensive and emergency exams, digital x-rays and fluoride treatments. Members also save 20% on procedures such as fillings or extractions, which helps when a wisdom tooth needs attention.
Can I get my teeth cleaned at my very first appointment?
Yes, if you qualify for our $79 Exam, X-Ray & Cleaning* special, the first visit includes a full cleaning, an oral health exam and all standard x-rays. *This offer is for new patients without insurance and in absence of periodontal disease. If gum disease turns up, Dr. Hayer explains the deeper care it needs.
Can a chipped front tooth be repaired so it looks natural?
Yes, most small chips can be repaired with conservative cosmetic treatment that matches the shade and shape of your other teeth. Larger breaks that reach deeper into the tooth may need restorative care for strength. Dr. Hayer examines the tooth first, then shows you which approach protects it and looks most natural.
Can wisdom teeth be removed at your office?
Yes, Dr. Hayer removes wisdom teeth in our office, including impacted ones. A CBCT 3D scan shows the position of each tooth before anything is scheduled. Sedation options are available if you feel nervous, and you may need someone to drive you home after deeper sedation. We also go over recovery care before you leave.
