In 1979, Dr Tommy Harrison and Dr. Gary Garrison, lifelong friends from Temple, Texas, born just 3 days apart, opened the doors to a new dental practice at the corner of Fry Road and the Katy Freeway. The two new doctors had decided to go into practice together, considering the high cost of setting up. After 27 years at that location, the practice was moved to a new, more modern office on Kingsland in 2005.  As their families grew and interests outside the office changed, their partnership always remained great.  In 2005, Dr. Garrett Bethke joined the practice as an associate for both doctors.  A patient of the practice since he was 10 years old, Dr. Bethke fulfilled his dream of running a practice, when in March of 2007, Dr Bethke took over for Dr. Garrison.  Dr Garrison moved to the hill country, where he now practices with his son Austin.  Over the next 29 years, Dr. Bethke and Dr. Harrison hope to continue their partnership based on the same family values and principles that have helped the practices grow through the years.  The booming Katy population and economy through the years have been and continue to be paramount to their success.

Dr. Harrison and Dr. Bethke are pleased to have the expertise of Dr. Mike Wells, who joined their practice as an associate in 1987.  Dr. Amy Fillman joined the practice in 2004 as an associate after completing an Advanced General Dentistry residency.  In 2006, Dr. David Laing came to the practice, enabling the practice to offer many new services.

We are a dental practice devoted to restoring and enhancing the natural beauty of your smile using conservative, state-of-the-art procedures that will result in beautiful, long lasting smiles!

High Standards

A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve.  We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use restorative and cosmetic dentistry to achieve your optimal dental health.  Should a dental emergency occur, we make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.

Education & Prevention

As a practice, we are true believers that preventive care and education are the keys to optimal dental health.  We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”.  That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary.  We also know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease.  Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health.  A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.

Uncompromising Safety

Infection control in our office is also very important to us.  To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and cross contamination processes using standards recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC).

Training & Expertise

As your dental health professionals, we want you to be confident knowing that we are a team of highly trained and skilled clinicians.  We pride ourselves in providing the care you need to keep your smile healthy.  To give you the best possible service and results, we are committed to continual education and learning.  We attend dental lectures, meetings, and dental conventions to stay informed of new techniques, the latest products, and the newest equipment that a modern dental office can utilize to provide state-of-the-art dental care.  Also, being members of various professional dental associations helps us to stay abreast of the changes and recommendations for our profession.
