Convenient Access from West Lake Hills
Loop 360 makes the trip simple. Glow Dental Co is about 14 minutes south of West Lake Hills City Hall, on Southwest Pkwy in Southwest Austin, and it is a practical choice for anyone weighing a dentist in West Lake Hills, TX against a drive into central Austin. Dr. Kelsi Lewis, DDS, focuses on clear explanations and careful repairs.
From City Hall at 4010 Bee Cave Rd, head along Bee Caves Road briefly, then turn south on Camp Craft Road and follow Westbank Drive past Westlake High School. Take South Capital of Texas Highway, Loop 360, south for about 2.1 miles, then join MoPac southbound for a short stretch and its service road to Southwest Pkwy. Travel west on the parkway for roughly 3.6 miles and make the U-turn just past the office, which sits on the eastbound side. The whole trip runs 8.1 miles with no tolls, though rush hour on Loop 360 and MoPac can lengthen it.
Our address is Building One, 7717 Southwest Pkwy Unit 150, Austin, TX 78735, at the Terravista Dr corner inside the Lantana development. Open it on Google Maps to get a feel for the final turn-around. Patients from nearby Lost Creek share much of this Loop 360 and MoPac route, and Rollingwood is close by as well.
Why West Lake Hills Neighbors Choose an Office on Southwest Pkwy
West Lake Hills is a hill-country city of about 3,444 residents at the 2020 census, spread across roughly 3.6 square miles west of central Austin. Land planner Emmett Shelton laid it out, and the city incorporated on September 9, 1953. It grew strongly through the 1970s and 1980s, and the Emmett Shelton Bridge now carries his name between West Lake Hills and Austin.
The city opened its new City Hall at 4010 Bee Cave Rd in September 2025, housing administration and police under one roof, and the City of West Lake Hills website keeps residents up to date. Bee Caves Road and Loop 360 tie the community to the rest of Travis County. Those same roads put our office within easy reach without fighting downtown traffic.
Inside the practice, the pace is calm and deliberate. Dr. Lewis reviews photos and x-rays of each tooth in question with you on screen and explains every option, including what is likely to happen if you wait. You get an honest estimate of cost before treatment, and a follow-up check-in afterward.
Scheduling fits a working week. Monday appointments run until 6:00 PM, and Tuesday through Thursday the office opens at 7:00 AM. Glow Dental Co is closed Friday through Sunday.
Dental Priorities When Choosing a Dentist in West Lake Hills, TX
West Lake Hills has a mature population, with a median age around 50 according to the city. At that stage, dental care often shifts from prevention alone to keeping the teeth you have strong for the long run. Older fillings wear, enamel thins and gums need closer attention.
Crowns are one of the most common repairs for teeth weakened by large fillings or cracks. Glow Dental Co mills crowns in the office on a Fastmill unit, which allows many patients to complete treatment in a single visit. That means fewer trips down Loop 360.
When a tooth is lost, Dr. Lewis brings advanced training in implants to the conversation. A single implant can replace one tooth, and for patients missing many teeth, All-On-4 anchors a full arch on implants. Traditional dentures remain a good option for others, and the right choice depends on your exam, your bone and your goals.
Gum health deserves its own mention. Bleeding or receding gums can signal periodontal disease, which affects how cleanings are scheduled and which plans make sense. Every exam includes a look at your gums, and Dr. Lewis explains what she finds in plain language.
Households with teenagers and younger kids are welcome too. Glow Dental Co sees patients of all ages, so parents and children can keep their checkups in one place.
Dental Services for West Lake Hills Patients
Implant Dentistry
Implants replace missing teeth with a fixed result that does not rest on the gums. Your digital images guide the conversation about whether an implant suits you.
Restorative Dentistry
Crowns and bridges rebuild worn, cracked or decayed teeth. Many crowns are milled in the office on Fastmill and placed in one appointment.
General Dentistry
Regular cleanings and exams track gum health and catch small problems early. Digital x-rays and intraoral photos let you see exactly what Dr. Lewis sees.
Tooth Extractions
When a tooth cannot be saved, a careful extraction clears the way for an implant or bridge. Numbing gel before every injection and nitrous oxide help keep you comfortable.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Veneers, bonding and whitening can refresh a smile that has dulled or worn over the years. A Trial Smile preview shows how new veneers could look first.
