Northwest General Dentistry is led by two highly experienced professionals. Dr. Kaushal Vakil, DDS, a Houston native with over 20 years of private practice experience, graduated from the University of Texas at Austin and Baylor College of Dentistry, and completed a residency at the Central Texas Veterans Hospital. He is an active member of the Southwest Academy of Comprehensive Dentistry, the American Dental Association (ADA), the Texas Dental Association (TDA), and the Greater Houston Dental Society. Dr. Kevin Otten, DDS, a published researcher with 30 years of experience, earned his DDS from the University of Texas Dental Branch at Houston and holds memberships in the ADA, TDA, and Greater Houston Dental Society. Both dentists prioritize continuing education to provide current and effective treatments.
The practice's state-of-the-art facility utilizes advanced diagnostic and treatment technology to improve accuracy, efficiency, and patient comfort. For patients without traditional dental insurance, Northwest General Dentistry offers an in-house dental membership plan and flexible financing options to ensure cost is not a barrier to care. The team's collaborative approach—centered on listening, explaining options, and involving patients in decisions—sets the practice apart. Patients can schedule appointments or learn more about services and financing by visiting the Northwest General Dentistry website.
