ABOUT OUR OFFICE

About Our Weslaco Office

Where is the Weslaco office located?

Smile Magic of Weslaco is at 802 N Texas Blvd, Weslaco, TX 78596, off US Expressway 83, easy to reach from US Expressway 83 and Interstate 2. We serve families from Donna, Mercedes, Progreso, and across the Weslaco area. If you are new to the area, the City of Weslaco is a good way to get to know the community.

What ages do you treat at the Weslaco office?

All of them. We are a family practice caring for patients of every age. Your whole household can see the same trusted team, which makes life a lot simpler.

Are you pediatric dentists?

We are family dentists who are experienced and wonderful with children, not board-certified pediatric specialists. For most families, that is exactly what they need, and it means the same office can care for everyone. Learn more on our children's and family dentistry page.

Is the Weslaco office bilingual?

Yes. Se habla Español. The full visit can happen in Spanish if that is easier for your family, from check-in and treatment explanations to billing questions and follow-up calls.

What makes your office good for kids?

Our office was designed with children in mind. There is a Play Gym and Video Games to make the wait fun. Paired with our gentle dentist, it helps even nervous kids relax. See our children's and family dentistry page for more.

What Weslaco Families Are Saying About Smile Magic

APPOINTMENTS

Booking Your Appointment

How do I book a first appointment at the Weslaco office?

Two easy ways. Call (956) 242-4099 and the front desk will get you on the schedule, or book online. New patients are always welcome. Let us know if you are bringing the whole family so we can coordinate the timing.

What should I bring to my first visit?

A photo ID, your dental insurance card if you have one, and a list of any medications you take. If you have had X-rays or treatment elsewhere recently, bringing those records saves us from re-imaging unnecessarily.

How long will my first appointment take?

Plan on about an hour for a new patient visit. That covers check-in paperwork, a comprehensive exam with one of our Weslaco dentists, digital X-rays if you are due, a cleaning, and a walk-through of anything we find. You will leave with a clear plan if any treatment is recommended.

Can I be seen the same day for an emergency?

Most of the time, yes. We hold room in the daily schedule for emergencies when available. Call (956) 242-4099 early in the day and we can usually see you the same day. See our emergency dentistry page.

What if I do not have insurance?

No problem at all. We offer a dental savings plan through Total Smile Club that includes two exams and X-rays per year, plus up to 30% off dental care all year long. Ask our front desk, or learn more on our about page.

Do you accept Medicaid at the Weslaco office?

Yes, depending on your specific plan. We work with Texas Medicaid and CHIP. Call (956) 242-4099 with your plan name and we will verify before you book.
