Convenient Access from Prestonwood Forest
Long-settled streets like those in Prestonwood Forest deserve a dental office that knows how to care for smiles over decades. Savvy Smile Studio is that kind of practice, about 11 minutes south on Jones Rd in northwest Houston. As a dentist near Prestonwood Forest, we restore worn teeth, treat gum disease, replace missing teeth and keep healthy smiles that way.
Start on Prestonwood Forest Drive and make your way to Schroeder Road, then head south to the Tomball Parkway (SH 249) frontage road. Follow the frontage road southeast to Cypress Creek Parkway (FM 1960) and continue southwest for about 2.6 miles. Turn south on Jones Road to arrive at 9101 Jones Rd Ste A-1, Houston, TX 77065.
Expect a 5.8-mile drive with no tolls. You can find our listing on Google Maps for step-by-step directions. We also welcome patients from Vintage Park and Mills Walk, each about a mile and a half from Prestonwood Forest.
Lasting Dental Care for an Established Prestonwood Forest Community
Prestonwood Forest took shape in the 1970s and has 784 single-family homes tucked off SH 249 and Cypresswood Drive, east of Schroeder Road and north of FM 1960. It sits in unincorporated Harris County, just north of the Willowbrook area. Every holiday season the neighborhood is known across Greater Houston for its holiday light displays, with street after street choosing its own theme.
Established streets like these are home to plenty of long-time owners, while nearby Cy-Fair ISD campuses such as Hancock Elementary, Bleyl Middle School and Cypress Creek High School draw families with school-age children. A dental office that can serve both groups saves everyone time.
Our first appointments open at 8:30 AM on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Friday hours finish at 2 PM, and the office is closed on Thursday. Mornings on FM 1960 near Willowbrook Mall can be slow at rush hour, so a few extra minutes on the road makes an early visit stress-free.
What Years of Chewing Do to Teeth and Gums
Fillings and crowns do not last forever. Teeth that were repaired years ago can develop leaks around the edges, fresh decay underneath or small cracks from years of chewing. Most of these problems are quiet at first, which is why regular exams with digital x-rays matter more as dental work ages.
When a crown does need replacing, the process is more comfortable than many people remember. The iTero® scanner records digital impressions of your teeth, so there is no tray of thick putty to bite into. The scan also helps our dentists check how the new crown will meet the teeth around it.
Sensitivity to cold, a dull ache when chewing or a tooth that suddenly feels different are all worth a call. These signs can point to a crack or decay reaching the nerve. Found early, many of these teeth can be saved with a crown or root canal therapy instead of being removed.
Gum health is the other half of the picture. Gum disease can progress without pain, slowly loosening teeth that otherwise look fine. Dr. Tamaara Willis completed three years of advanced periodontal training and offers LANAP® laser gum therapy, a laser-based approach to treating gum disease that she uses when deeper care is needed.
When a tooth has already been lost, there are good ways to replace it. A single implant can fill a gap without touching the neighboring teeth, while dentures or implant-supported options help when several teeth are missing. Our dentists walk you through each choice, including how long it takes and what it costs.
Some patients need more than one type of treatment at once. Dr. Davis focuses on full-mouth rehabilitation, which brings crowns, implants, gum care and bite correction together in a single, well-sequenced plan instead of a string of unrelated repairs.
How a Dentist Near Prestonwood Forest Rebuilds Worn Smiles
Restorative Dentistry
New fillings, crowns and bridges replace worn or failing work. We explain what needs attention now and what can safely wait.
Dental Implants
A titanium post in the jawbone supports a crown, bridge or denture. Prestonwood Forest residents who are new to the practice can start with a free implant consultation.
Periodontal Therapy
Deep cleanings and targeted gum treatment control infection below the gumline. Healthier gums give every other restoration a stronger foundation.
Dentures
Full and partial dentures restore chewing and appearance when several teeth are missing. Implants can also help a denture stay put.
Full-Mouth Rehabilitation
For mouths with many worn, broken or missing teeth, a coordinated plan rebuilds function and appearance step by step.
Longer restorative visits do not have to be an ordeal. Nitrous oxide, oral sedation and IV sedation are available for patients who feel anxious or face a longer appointment, and your options are reviewed with your medical history before any appointment.
If something breaks before your next checkup, new patients can come in for a free emergency exam and x-ray. We find the cause, ease the discomfort and protect the tooth, then lay out the repair options so you can decide calmly rather than in the moment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Savvy Smile Studio from Prestonwood Forest, and how do I get there?
It is about 5.8 miles from Prestonwood Forest Drive to our office, an 11-minute drive. Take Schroeder Road to the SH 249 frontage road, then FM 1960 southwest and Jones Road south. Patients looking for a dentist near Prestonwood Forest will find no tolls along the way.
Can I switch from dentures to dental implants?
Many denture wearers can move to implants, depending on their health and jawbone. Implants can replace individual teeth or anchor a denture so it no longer slips. If bone has thinned after years without teeth, grafting may make implants possible. A free consultation for new patients includes an exam and imaging to see which option fits you.
Can several worn or broken teeth be fixed in one treatment plan?
Yes. When many teeth are worn, cracked or missing, our dentists can build one coordinated plan instead of patching each tooth separately. Dr. Davis focuses on full-mouth rehabilitation, which sequences crowns, implants, gum care and bite correction in a sensible order. Treatment can be phased over time to match your schedule and budget.
Does the membership plan discount crowns and fillings?
Yes, the Savvy Smile Membership Plan includes discounts on additional treatment such as fillings and crowns. The plan is meant for patients without dental insurance and also covers routine exams, digital x-rays and professional cleanings. Our front desk can explain how it works and whether it makes sense for your household's needs.
What are my options for replacing a single missing tooth?
The main options are a dental implant, a bridge or a partial denture. An implant replaces the root with a post in the jawbone and leaves the neighboring teeth untouched. A bridge anchors to the teeth on either side, while a partial denture is removable. New patients can explore implants at a free consultation that includes digital imaging.
