Convenient Access from Legend Oaks
Legend Oaks households have a short, simple drive to Glow Dental Co: about 7 minutes up Escarpment Boulevard and William Cannon Drive to our Southwest Austin office. If you have been meaning to find a dentist near Legend Oaks who takes time to explain things, Dr. Kelsi Lewis and her team care for adults, teens and children in one place.
Starting from Legend Oaks Neighborhood Park at 7724 Escarpment Blvd., drive north on Escarpment Boulevard for about 0.7 mile. Turn left onto William Cannon Drive and follow it north for nearly 2 miles to Southwest Pkwy. Turn left, continue west about 0.8 mile, then make a U-turn just past our building, because the parkway is divided. Turn right into the office drive, about 3.5 miles from where you began.
Our address is Building One, 7717 Southwest Pkwy Unit 150, Austin, TX 78735, at Terravista Drive. Open it in Google Maps for live directions. Patients from Village at Western Oaks just to the south and the wider Oak Hill area take similar routes.
An Established Neighborhood Deserves an Unhurried Dentist
Legend Oaks grew in phases. The first section was recorded in March 1987, more followed through the early 1990s, and Section 7A arrived in 1999, alongside the Woods of Legend Oaks in 1993. The result is a settled single-family neighborhood south of US 290, laid out along Escarpment Boulevard and Convict Hill Road in Travis County.
Green space is part of daily life. Legend Oaks Neighborhood Park runs along Escarpment, Convict Hill Quarry Neighborhood Park sits just to the north, and Dick Nichols District Park and its pool are a short drive southeast. The Hampton Branch at Oak Hill library on Convict Hill Road is the closest Austin Public Library branch.
An established neighborhood like this can hold several generations of dental needs. Our office is set up for every age, with no rush in the chair and every finding shown on screen before any decision.
Getting here takes no highway, either. The route uses Escarpment Boulevard and William Cannon Drive and crosses US 290 rather than joining it.
Dental Care Through Every Stage of Life in Legend Oaks
Residents who settled here in the late 1980s and 1990s may still carry dental work from that era. Silver fillings placed back then can crack, leak at the edges or stain the tooth around them. A worn filling that is ignored can let decay spread underneath, and the tooth may eventually need a dental crown to stay strong.
Our Fastmill system mills crowns in the office, allowing many patients to complete treatment in a single visit. That means one numbing appointment instead of a temporary crown and a second trip back up William Cannon.
Younger households in Legend Oaks have a different set of questions. Kids need routine cleanings, fluoride and an eye on how adult teeth are coming in, and teens may start to care about crooked teeth. Monday appointments run until 6:00 PM, which leaves room for an after-school checkup.
Whatever your age, the basics carry the most weight. Brush twice a day, clean between teeth daily, and keep sugary drinks to mealtimes. Regular exams make the rest easier to manage.
Anyone who has dreaded dental visits since childhood will find a gentler setup here. Numbing gel goes on before every injection, and a raised hand pauses treatment at any point. Warm blankets and a TV with headphones above the chair help the time pass, and nitrous oxide is available when you want extra calm.

Outside the office, Dr. Kelsi Lewis is a mom to her daughter, Olivia, and to two golden retrievers, Zoe and Chloe, and she enjoys travel and Pure Barre classes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Glow Dental Co from Legend Oaks, and how do I get there?
It is about 3.5 miles from Legend Oaks Neighborhood Park, usually a 7-minute drive. Take Escarpment Boulevard north, William Cannon Drive north and Southwest Pkwy west, then U-turn just past our building. Families choosing a dentist near Legend Oaks will not need a highway or toll road for the trip.
When should a child have a first dental visit?
Around the first birthday, or within six months of the first tooth appearing. Early visits are short and gentle, and they let the dentist check how teeth are coming in and coach parents on brushing and snacks. Glow Dental Co sees patients of all ages, and our front desk can talk through timing for a first visit.
How often should we have our teeth cleaned?
For most people, every six months. Two cleanings and exams a year catch decay and gum problems while they are still small. Some patients with gum disease or a history of frequent cavities need visits more often. Dr. Lewis will recommend a schedule based on what she sees at your exam.
My old filling broke. Do I need a crown?
Not necessarily. If enough healthy tooth remains, a new filling may be all it needs. When a large filling breaks or the tooth has cracked, a crown usually protects it better. Dr. Lewis will show you the x-ray and photos, explain both options and give you a cost estimate before you decide.
Can whitening fix teeth that have darkened with age?
Often, yes. Whitening lifts stains from coffee, tea and years of everyday wear from natural enamel. It does not change the color of crowns, veneers or fillings, so those may need replacing to match. For deeper discoloration, bonding or veneers can be the better choice, and Dr. Lewis will compare them.
