Great experience. I have been going here since 2012. Love the team and always get consistently good card bad all my questions answered.
Did Invisalign and was able to not have to pay for a full process like so many dentists in austin. They let me stop my trays where I was comfortable. Saving me $2k to stop after 4 res instead of doing the full 6-8 res that other dentists charge a 5500 flat fee Invisalign.
I would only watch out for when they bust out the teeth saw between teeth. I now accidentally have a minor hole under one gum by the saw thing glitching and going to deep under pen tooth. Not thrilled about it as good traps on there now but it was not intentional and as we know we can’t control everything.
Overall thrilled with them and love Mia out front.
Also very flexible with scheduling which I’ve needed.

I can’t say enough good things about Authentic Smiles! I’ve always been terrified of going to the dentist, so I walked into my first appointment with a lot of anxiety. From the moment I arrived, the entire team made me feel comfortable and welcome.
Brianna is absolutely amazing—kind, patient, and understanding every step of the way, made the whole experience stress-free from the start. Mia at the front desk is awesome as well, she is very friendly and helpful!! Got me scheduled right away for my next visits.
Dr. Matt took the time to listen to my concerns and came up with a detailed plan to fix both my bite and my teeth. Instead of feeling rushed and unheard, I felt like I finally had someone who truly cared about helping me achieve a healthy smile.
If you’re someone who gets nervous about dental visits like I do, I highly recommend Authentic Smiles. They have earned a patient for life!

This is an amazing dentist office. Everyone from Dr Matt to the office staff to his assistance are wonderful people. I have come to them with many dental emergencies, and they have always found a way to schedule me in and take care of me professionally and kindly. I drive an hour and 45 minutes to go to this dentist office and I wouldn’t change it. Great job authentic smiles.

The practice describes its approach as combining comfort with attention to both function and appearance, aiming to help patients regain the ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Anyone exploring implant options is encouraged to schedule a consultation to discuss candidacy, timeline, and next steps directly with the clinical team.
