As we await further instruction from the Texas Dental Association, Crown Pointe Dentistry will continue to practice precautionary measures inside the office. All patients and non-patients will have their temperatures and oxygen saturation levels recorded at the front desk using a non-contact thermometer and a simple, over the finger pulse oximeter.
Persons with temperature readings over 100 degrees Farenheit and oxygen saturation levels at 92 or below will be referred to primary care for additional medical attention. The waiting room will be reserved for patients and essential companions only. Friends, relatives, acquaintances that are not directly responsible for the patient will be asked to remain in their vehicle.

Flexural forces applied to teeth from clenching and grinding in combination with acids from the foods we eat can lead to erosion of the enamel at the gum line. Such lesions, known as abfractions, are not "cavities" in the proper sense, but exposing the softer part of the tooth called dentin can lead to a wide variety of problems.
Non-carious Cervical Lesions describes a condition where tooth structure is lost below the gumline due to forces other than decay. Symptoms of Non-carious cervical lesions are often visual, with notches appearing on the teeth where the crown and root of the tooth meet. They can sometimes be accompanied by gum recession in the area as well.
Avulsion occurs when a tooth is completely displaced from its socket or "knocked out"- this often occurs as the result of trauma or impact to the face and mouth. Normally your tooth is held within the socket by what is called the periodontal ligament. When a tooth is knocked out this connection is torn loose.
The temporomandibular joint is the complex hinge that joins your lower jaw and skull together. It works similarly to a ball and socket, but also has the unique ability to glide forward via a series of muscles, ligaments, and fibrous tissues all working together. A key component of the ball and socket is a piece of fibrocartilage separating the two, called the articulator disc.
Bruxism is a condition where a patient grinds, gnashes, and/or clenches their teeth. It is typically an unconscious behavior, and can occur both while awake and sleeping. Common symptoms of bruxism include worn tooth structure and flattening of the teeth, increased tooth sensitivity, jaw soreness, tenderness of the facial muscles, and dull headaches.

Dr Chad Drennan & his team are very down to earth, friendly, & professional!
I was apprehensive on my first visit, but that went away, almost immediately! The doctor explained EVERY procedure before he started & answered EVERY question I had. He explained my future plan of care & made sure I agreed to it, without being ‘pushy’!
I had submitted my insurance to the young lady that handles that portion of my care & she had all the answers to my questions as well; I was given the amount of my procedure, the insurance cost, & my out-of-pocket cost prior to my treatment! Their prices are very reasonable

This family Owned dentistry is top-notch. The staff are very professional, friendly and informative. Dntist and staff take time to explain and make sure all your questions are answered. I recommend this practice to anyone looking for a new dentist, Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is everyone can have room for betterment. OSince no weekend hours (understandable we all should spend time with family) so maybe have a day or two with early or late hours during week. 7a to 6 or 7p, just suggestion. However this dentistry is worth working around the current hours. Thanks Dr Mike!!

100% recommend this dentist. A filling fell out yesterday and they were able to get me in today to get it fixed. The office is clean and welcoming, the staff were super courteous and Chad was professional and worked efficiently! I can't believe I'm saying this but... I can't wait to go back to the dentist!

Both Drs. Chad & Mike Drennan at Crown Pointe Dentistry (previously Aledo Dental ) take after their Dad and excel in dentistry.
They truly care about offering the best dental options and assist you in making the best decisions. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I wouldn't even consider going anywhere else. Y'all are the best! Debra Lindsey

I took my elderly mom to have her teeth cleaned. Her previous dentist was thinking of pulling several of her teeth, but I was pleased to discover that Crown Pointe's approach is one of tooth preservation especially with the elderly. Service was thoughtful, kind, and highly competent. I was very impressed!
