Naba Dental & Orthodontics — Local services in Houston

Today was my first visit to Naba Dental, and I am a very, very happy new patient! I had a great experience from beginning to end. Dr. Mirza was wonderful and I look forward to visiting again.

I had a crown that broke completely in half and needed to have it replaced as soon as possible. I found Naba online and called to get a quote for the service out of pocket. I was immediately given an estimate and asked if I would like to schedule an appointment. I ended up calling around to a few other practices, but Naba's price was the best (and they're also closest to my home!). Some practices wouldn’t even give me a quote on the phone, so I appreciated them being up front about costs. I called back and they were able to get me in the next morning.

My forms were conveniently sent to me via a link in a text message, so I got them all completed ahead of time. I still arrived about 20-25 minutes early in case there was anything additional, but there wasn't and they brought me back almost immediately (20min early)!

My dental assistant was Yahaira, and she was great. I explained the situation to her and she explained the process to me, including needing to take current x-ray of the area to be sure the tooth was in good condition before they proceeded. I let her know I'm a nervous dental patient but she helped me feel relaxed and ready for anything by chatting with me a bit, including about the baking shows that were being shown on the ceiling above the chair.

Dr. Mirza joined us quickly and took a look at my x-ray and then reviewed paperwork with me. She pointed out that some of my new medications impact my dental health (dry mouth and clenching/grinding) so that I would be aware of possible damage and how to avoid it. That was so helpful! I've never had a dentist review medications in depth with me like that. She also mentioned I had tartar buildup (it's been a long long time since I've gotten a deep clean) and recommended a deep clean in the future, which I agreed to do. (Important later)

Dr. Miraz also took a look at the tooth itself and expressed concerns about some discoloration (that may be a cavity that would have to be filled before they could place the crown). She took time to prepare me for all possibilities before we began the dental work. She asked me to do a full set of x-rays too, to be sure there were no other issues to be aware of before they got started. I appreciate how thorough she was.

Yahaira returned and reviewed the billing for the proposed work one more time and had me sign some final consent forms before we began. Dr. Mirza got ready and I let her know about some issues I've had with numbing in the past (wearing off quickly or not reaching the proper areas). She was very attentive and gentle when administering the anesthesia and made sure I was well and truly numbed up before she got to work. She quickly removed the old crown piece and cleaned up the old cement, confirmed the discoloration was not a problem, and then we got ready to do the molding for the new crown.

After the molding, Dr. Mirza offered to go ahead and do the deep cleaning on the quadrant of my mouth that was already numbed up, so that I wouldn't have to go through it being numbed again next visit (I hate needles!) I thought that was very kind of her to do (and it also helped them place the crown better, not gonna lie!) It was a little tough with the bad buildup and gum inflammation I had, but they both made sure I was comfortable the whole time.

I got my deep clean done for that area, got my temporary crown placed, and booked my follow up for three weeks out. Yahaira confirmed with the doctor and got me some ibuprofen to take so that my jaw and gums would be less sore once the numbing wore off. Betty at the front desk took my payment and booked my appointment and was very friendly and helpful.

All in all, it was a very good dental visit and I am happy to make this my new dental home! I will definitely recommend Naba Dental to my friends...

I've been to A LOT of dentists... unfortunately... but Naba Dental has been THE BEST dental experience I've had in my life. Dr. Mirza and all of the staff I have come in to contact with have all been amazingly kind, patient, and thorough.

Dr. Mirza really takes the time to explain things to you without it feeling like she's rushing to get to the next patient.

I've been to 3 different dentists in the last 10 months. She was the only one that told me I have dry mouth issues and that it's affecting my dental health. What?! How did every other dentist overlook this and not mention it to me?! She provided tips with how to combat it and even goes as far as to consider the holistic nature of oral health. In other words, she considers how your oral health might be reflective of other health issues.

When I needed my teeth cleaned, she did the cleaning herself and she did a phenomenal job!

She answers all my questions, provides flossing tips, and addresses any and all concerns I have without making me feel like I'm a bother.

My entire family comes here. Literally. Even my extended family comes here and they all have only ever sung praises about their experience with Naba.

Oh, they also have a TV on the ceiling w some Netflix shows rolling, which is a really neat feature in my opinion.

I go out of my way to recommend this place to all of my colleagues, because Dr. Mirza and the entire team have been that awesome.

She also has a nice network of specialists for referrals. The endodontist she sent me to was SO awesome!

The best part of it all? Dr. Mirza always has a smile on her face. She always seems so friendly and welcoming, it takes the edge off when Im there and it makes me feel like she actually cares about whats happening to me.

I have not felt like this place has tried to up-sell me. I've been to dentists that fix your problems in a way that allows for more problems to arise so they can keep selling you services.

So NOT the case here from my experience.

Don't neglect your oral health. I know going to the dentist kind of sucks and is kind of scary, and while I can't say I "enjoy" going to the dentist [I mean who does? 😅], Naba Dental has made the entire experience a lot less stressful.

I trust Dr. Mirza and the team here to do right by me and help me take care of my teeth, and honestly, you...
