Richard Waghalter,DDS - Healthy Smiles of Houston

Dr. Waghalter and his staff were great! I had a really bad cavity and thought for sure they would have to pull it. But they were able to save the tooth!!! So happy. They really made me feel comfortable and no more tooth pain. Thanks!!!

Terrible experience. As a new patient my first visit I waited 45 minutes in the waiting room before asking to be seen. The visit went fine until Dr. Waghalter informed me that he needed to numb my gums for a teeth cleaning. I made the mistake of not asking why numbing was needed. It was the most painful teeth cleaning I have ever experienced. He informed me that my farthest back molar had a cavity and needed to be repaired. I decided to return to give the doctor a second try since I was a new patient. In the process of repairing the cavity the doctor hit the nerve of my tooth informing me that I would need a root canal. I decided to get a second opinion and the new dentist informed me that I have more issues regarding my tooth and that it would make sense to just pull the tooth. So now thanks to Dr. Waghalter I have a large dental bill and pain for no reason.

Dr Waghalter is very professional and has helped me with my oral care tremendously, the last dentist I had gone prior to Dr Walhalter told me that I was going to lose my teeth and needed to look into dentures within a few months, but after visiting with Dr Waghalter and with regular visits, I have very healthy teeth OF MY OWN and am very pleased!!! Thank you and your staff for all your help!!! Very professional and nice !! Do visit!

Not only is Dr. Waghalter one of the best in his field but he's also a wonderful guy. I don't know where else you could go to get the level of experience and skill delivered with the best "chairside" manner of any dental professional i've ever visited. Also, he makes me laugh. A lot. Couldn't recommend him more highly.

I went to get an estimate for implant, during the visit I kept telling them I don't have any other concern or issues with any if my tooth. Well they did all kind of test x-rays and stuff, at the end give me an estimate of $27k plus. Which is okay fine I don't have to do, but they charges my insurance couple hundreds of dollars and now I keep getting their estimate that I owe them $142.

Many thanks to Dr. Waghalter for solving my problem!! Recent dental treatment on one side of my mouth threw off the occlusion bite on the other side of my mouth and caused a toothache on one of my teeth. I had a bite adjustment done by a periodontist, which helped, but the soreness persisted. I then went to Dr. Waghalter due to his training and expertise in this area. It is now 2 days later. My bite has never felt better and I am pain free for the first time in 6 weeks. FYI, I am a dentist, so this is a BIG DEAL for me! Thanks again, Dr. W.!!!

Great Dentist and super staff will return in the future. Highly recommend :
