Convenient Access from Southlake
Southlake Town Square to our front door is a 16-minute drive on surface streets. Keller Family Dentistry, Sleep & Facial Pain welcomes anyone searching for a dentist Southlake, TX households can reach without tolls or freeway merges. Our Keller office is led by Dr. Omar Alswaiti, a General Dentist with advanced training in orofacial pain and sleep apnea, and we see patients Monday through Saturday.
Begin at Southlake Town Hall, 1400 Main St, in the heart of Town Square. Leave the square by Civic Pl and State St, then drive west on E Southlake Blvd (FM 1709). Turn south on Davis Blvd (FM 1938), and finish by heading west on N Tarrant Pkwy.
From Town Hall, the trip is about 8.5 miles and usually takes 16 minutes. Our office is at 841 N Tarrant Pkwy #112, Keller, TX 76248, near the Rufe Snow Dr corner with a CVS next door. Patients from Westlake and Trophy Club can find their own directions on dedicated pages.
A Good Match for Southlake's Busy Families
Southlake grew from open country into a thriving suburb after DFW Airport opened in the 1970s. Today it is known for strong schools, active recreation and family neighborhoods spread south of Grapevine Lake. Town Hall sits in Tarrant County, though a few small pieces of the city reach into Denton County.
Calendars here fill up fast. Between practices, games, work travel and errands around Town Square, a dental visit has to fit neatly into the week. Our Saturday hours, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, give parents and students a weekend option, and our team can stay in touch by text.
The city also has no public transit of its own, so nearly everyone drives. That is one reason the route matters. Southlake Blvd and Davis Blvd are wide, familiar roads, and the drive stays off SH 114 and the toll lanes entirely.
Preparation saves time on the day itself. Sending your insurance details before the first appointment lets our team verify benefits ahead of the visit. That first visit includes a thorough exam, any x-rays you need and a detailed financial consultation, so costs are clear from the start.
Smiles, Sports and Sleep: Dental Needs Around Southlake
Athletics run deep in Southlake. Carroll ISD's Dragons play at Dragon Stadium, and youth sports are a big part of family life across the city. Contact sports, and even basketball or baseball, carry a real risk of chipped or knocked-out teeth. A custom mouthguard is one of the simplest ways to prevent that.
Adults bring different goals. Many professionals want straighter teeth without metal brackets, or a brighter smile before a big presentation or family photo. Clear aligners, professional whitening, bonding and veneers all fit those goals, and our intraoral scanner replaces messy impression trays with a quick digital scan.
Some adults also want to retire older metal fillings or a worn crown that shows when they laugh. Tooth-colored composite fillings blend in, and same-day crowns let many single-tooth repairs finish in one appointment. Cone beam imaging and 3D planning support bigger projects, such as replacing a missing tooth with an implant.
Sleep and jaw problems are a quieter concern. Long workdays, stress and frequent travel can show up as clenching, morning headaches or snoring that bothers a partner. Dr. Alswaiti's residency at Tufts University focused on temporomandibular joint conditions, facial pain and sleep-related concerns. He can evaluate these issues during a routine visit and talk through practical next steps.
Teenagers have their own checklist. Wisdom teeth start to develop, retainers need care after braces, and a growing mouth may outgrow last year's athletic guard. Panoramic x-rays help Dr. Alswaiti track wisdom tooth position over time, so any extraction can be planned around the school calendar instead of an emergency.
Families who enjoy the trails at the Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve or the pools at Champions Club at The Marq know that injuries happen away from the field, too. When a tooth breaks or a sudden ache starts, we reserve openings for same-day visits when problems come up.
Treatment Options for Anyone Seeking a Dentist Southlake, TX Residents Recommend
Orthodontic Services
Invisalign® clear aligners, traditional braces and retainers straighten teeth for teens and adults. New patients can book a free Invisalign® consultation* (*new patients only). It is a low-pressure way for Southlake professionals to learn whether aligners fit their plans.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Bonding, veneers and smile makeovers refine shape and color. Opalescence teeth whitening brightens stains from coffee or tea. Each plan is built around how you want your smile to look.
Preventive Dentistry
Cleanings, exams, digital x-rays and oral cancer screenings keep small issues small. Custom mouthguards protect young athletes during practices and games. Nightguards help adults who grind at night.
Sleep Apnea & TMJ
Snoring, suspected sleep apnea and jaw pain are evaluated in the chair. Oral appliance therapy is an option when it fits the diagnosis. Patients without a formal sleep apnea diagnosis may be referred for testing first.
Emergency Services
Toothaches, swelling, cracked teeth and lost crowns get prompt attention. A tooth knocked out during a game should be handled gently and brought in quickly. Fast care gives it a better chance to be saved.
Dental anxiety is common, even among adults who rarely miss a cleaning. Our office numbs teeth with The Wand®, a computer-controlled anesthetic delivery system. Mild or moderate sedation is also available after an individual evaluation, including nitrous oxide and oral sedation, which requires a responsible adult driver.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Keller Family Dentistry from Southlake, and how do I get there?
Our office is about 8.5 miles from Southlake Town Hall, a drive of roughly 16 minutes. Head west on Southlake Blvd (FM 1709), south on Davis Blvd (FM 1938), then west on N Tarrant Pkwy. It is a toll-free trip for anyone who wants a dentist Southlake, TX commuters can reach on familiar surface roads.
Do you take digital scans instead of goopy impressions?
Yes, our office uses an intraoral scanner for many treatments. A small wand captures a detailed 3D image of your teeth in a few minutes, with no tray of impression material. Those scans support Invisalign® planning and same-day crowns. Many patients with a strong gag reflex find a scan much easier to handle.
What happens during a free Invisalign® consultation?
The consultation includes an evaluation of your teeth and a conversation about your goals. Dr. Alswaiti then explains whether clear aligners are a good fit for your bite. The free Invisalign® consultation is for new patients only, and you can take time to decide before starting any treatment.
Could clenching my jaw at night cause morning headaches?
Yes, nighttime clenching or grinding can strain the jaw muscles and leave you with headaches or a sore jaw by morning. Dr. Alswaiti checks your teeth for wear and evaluates the joint and muscles. Treatment may include a nightguard or an orthotic appliance, and trigger point therapy is another option for stubborn muscle pain.
Can I spread the cost of veneers or aligners over time?
Yes, eligible patients can use Cherry, Sunbit or CareCredit® to pay in monthly installments. These plans work well for cosmetic or orthodontic treatment that insurance may not fully cover. Our team reviews costs during a detailed financial consultation, so you can compare options before committing to treatment.
