The practice is led by Dr. Jeffrey Ho, DMD (University of Pittsburgh, 2016) and Dr. Maryam Qureshi, DDS (University of Michigan), and serves patients across Watauga, North Richland Hills, Haltom City, Saginaw, Keller, and the surrounding Mid-Cities.

“For me, dentistry is much more than a profession—it is a lifelong passion. I am deeply committed to providing dental care rooted in ethics, honesty, and unwavering integrity.”

Why this matters: dental care in adult America

The CDC’s 2024 Oral Health Surveillance Report found that nearly 21% of US adults aged 20-64 have at least one permanent tooth with untreated decay, and that prevalence is significantly higher among lower-income and uninsured populations. Routine general-dentistry visits—a cleaning and exam roughly every 6 months—remain the most effective way to catch decay before it requires a crown, root canal, or extraction.

For dental trauma, the American Association of Endodontists reports that more than 5 million teeth are knocked out every year in the United States, but only 9% of adults know what to do when it happens. The 30 minutes immediately after the injury is the window in which the tooth has the highest chance of being saved—which is exactly why Watauga Family Dentistry holds same-day appointment slots open for emergencies.

Common questions about our services

How much does a routine cleaning and exam cost in Watauga, TX?

Cost varies by insurance plan. With most major PPO dental insurance, a preventive visit (cleaning, exam, and two bitewing X-rays) is typically covered at 100% with no out-of-pocket cost. For patients without insurance, the practice provides a written estimate before any treatment begins. Call (817) 281-2061 to get an exact quote for your situation.

How quickly can I be seen for a dental emergency?

Most active dental emergencies—severe pain, knocked-out teeth, broken teeth, lost crowns, abscess—are seen the same day or within 24 hours. Call as early in the day as possible at (817) 281-2061. If a tooth has been knocked out, place it in milk or saline (not water) and head to the office immediately—the first 30 minutes are critical for saving the tooth.

Do you accept my dental insurance?

The practice accepts most major PPO dental insurance plans, plus cash, all major credit and debit cards, and CareCredit financing. Insurance networks change periodically, so call (817) 281-2061 with your specific plan name and we’ll verify your benefits before your appointment.

How long does a porcelain veneer or crown take to complete?

Most crown and veneer cases require two visits about 2-3 weeks apart. The first visit covers preparation and a digital impression; the lab fabricates the final restoration; the second visit cements the restoration. Some same-day crown options are available for qualifying cases—ask during your consultation.

Are dental implants worth it?

Per the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, dental implants have a long-term success rate above 95% in healthy patients and, unlike bridges or dentures, preserve the jawbone over time. Dr. Qureshi has completed advanced training through the Misch Resnick Institute for implant dentistry. A consultation determines whether you’re a candidate; start by calling (817) 281-2061.
