About
Space City Smiles is a general dental practice in Spring Branch, on Houston's west side, owned and run by Dr. Johnathan Phan. It opened in 2018 and covers the routine end of the field — exams and hygiene, fillings, extractions, root canal treatment — alongside orthodontics, Invisalign, and cosmetic work.
The practice competes on price rather than exclusivity. It describes its aim as high-quality dentistry at affordable prices, accepts most PPO plans, and offers financing to patients without insurance. It is an authorized Invisalign provider.
What Makes Them Stand Out
- The office is open six days a week, including Saturdays until 4 p.m., with Sunday appointments available by arrangement — unusual coverage for a single-dentist general practice.
- Most PPO plans are accepted, and financing is available to patients arriving without insurance.
- Digital x-ray imaging is used to reduce radiation exposure, and exam rooms are fitted with ceiling-mounted televisions.
