What to Expect
Before we begin orthodontic treatment, we discuss your concerns thoroughly and take multiple images and x-rays. We then proceed with a custom presentation specifically for you that shows you our findings, recommendations for treatment, dental appliances needed, and costs. It is important to us to provide you with all the information we can from the very beginning. We want you to know what to expect, have time to ask questions, and consider your options. Our goal is that you feel confident you made the best decisions regarding your orthodontic care. At the conclusion of the consultation appointment, the parent/patient can decide when and if they would like to move forward with treatment.
Our Difference
Our History
Three Practices – One Family
In the fall of 2006, Dr. Tim Brister opened his first practice, Texas Pediatric Dentistry, in a small-leased office on the McKinney/Frisco border. This full-service pediatric office quickly began to grow, and soon developed a reputation as a family-oriented, no-pressure, quality care office that was focused on patients’ needs.
Through the years, the parents of our patients would comment about how they would love to be treated in the same office as their children, since they were comfortable with the location, staff, and atmosphere of the practice. In 2012, TPD had outgrown its current leased space, so Dr. Tim purchased a piece of property just down the road with plans to build his own building. Dr. Tim seriously considered the parents’ requests and decided to bring in a general dentist to treat the parents in the same building as their children, thus creating Stonebridge Ranch Dentistry and the ability to treat the entire family under one roof.
Within 1 year, it was clear he had a good problem: the general dentistry practice had outgrown the office it shared with the pediatric practice and would need its own space. Again, Dr. Tim found the perfect piece of property just down the street on a nearby greenbelt and built what is now a beautiful, state-of-the-art office that provides that same no-pressure, quality care that we became known for over a decade ago.
The next natural progression in our practices was to expand and offer additional services that our patients needed the most. Orthodontics was the most logical option, as many of our patients of all ages were interested in working to correct their smile.
Though there are 3 practices, they are completely intertwined, including the staff, doctors, patient charts, and the ability to take care of your entire family. Our goal is to offer comprehensive care for all of our patients. This eliminates the need for outside referrals and gives our patients a place to receive their dental care in facilities that are warm and welcoming, with staff members who are already invested in providing the ultimate level of service.
