Choosing a new dentist can be a daunting task. You may pass several offices just on your daily commute, and an Internet search reveals a myriad of other options. So how do you know which practice is the right fit for you? When looking for a dental home, find a place that truly puts your interests first, offering outstanding clinical care, as well as amenities such as an in-house dental plan.
At Austin Laser Dentist, Dr. Helen Ragsdale combines the latest technology with her expertise and extensive training. Moreover, she understands that good dentistry considers all of a patient’s needs, including their financial concerns. That is why she offers an in-house dental plan to make treatment highly affordable.

1. In-House Dental Plan
33.6% of Americans do not have dental insurance. Unfortunately, uninsured patients may neglect their preventive care and, accordingly, experience significant dental damage. In turn, restorative or periodontal care may carry steep costs.
Our in-house dental plan includes 30 to 40% off of routine preventive services. Regularly visiting the dentist will dramatically reduce your risk of dental problems, but if any do arise, you will also enjoy significant discounts on restorative treatment. Orthodontics, dental surgeries, and cosmetic dentistry are also discounted.
2. Cutting-Edge Technology
As the name of our practice implies, we are among the area’s leaders in dental technology. Dr. Ragsdale is proud to offer laser cavity detection and periodontal treatment. She is also one of just a handful of dentists in the Austin area to use lasers for hard tissue procedures. Lasers allow for faster, more precise treatments with reduced discomfort and downtime.
3. An Emphasis on Patient Comfort
Our lasers are just one way that we make your experience pleasant and stress-free. Treatments take place in private rooms. In the dental chair, you can relax with cable TV, warm blankets and pillows, headphones, and aroma and sound therapy. Of course, we also maintain meticulous safety and hygiene protocols.
4. Safe Sedation Options
If you are one of the many Americans who suffers from dental anxiety, even our spa-like amenities may not be enough to alleviate your nerves. Fortunately, we offer both IV and oral conscious sedation. When we combine these medications with local anesthetic, you will not experience any discomfort during treatment. You will also have virtually no memory of your procedure once the sedatives wear off.
5. A Full Spectrum of Treatments
When selecting a dentist, choose one who can handle all aspects of your dental health. Because of her extensive training and her use of dental lasers, Dr. Ragsdale performs almost all dental treatments, from routine cleanings to implant surgery. She is also well-known for her gum disease treatment, since lasers can more effectively eradicate oral bacteria than manual techniques alone.
