Receive a Comprehensive Dental Exam

During your dental exam, we thoroughly check every aspect of your oral health. Dr. Nair or Dr. Rao carefully examines each tooth for decay, checks your gums for signs of disease, and screens for oral cancer with specialized instruments.

We evaluate how your teeth fit together when you bite and assess any existing dental work like fillings or crowns. Your exam also includes a review of your medical history and any concerns you might have about your smile.

We enhance your exam with advanced technology for greater comfort and precision. Our low-radiation digital X-rays capture detailed images of your teeth and bones. For a complete picture of your mouth, we use the iTero digital scanner to create 3-D models of your teeth without messy impression materials. These technologies help us detect problems earlier and plan more effective treatments tailored specifically to your needs.

Experience a Refreshing Dental Cleaning

Our dental cleanings go far beyond what your toothbrush can achieve at home.

Our skilled hygienists gently remove sticky plaque and hardened tartar from all surfaces of your teeth, including hard-to-reach areas between teeth and below the gumline. We carefully clean along your gums where bacteria hide, helping prevent both cavities and gum disease.

After cleaning, we polish your teeth with a gentle abrasive paste that helps remove surface stains and leaves your teeth feeling smooth. You'll leave your appointment with noticeably cleaner teeth, fresher breath, and a brighter smile that feels squeaky clean against your tongue. This rejuvenated feeling will help you see why regular professional cleanings are so essential.

I highly recommend Serenity Dental for their exceptional service and commitment to patient care. My family has consistently received outstanding treatment, particularly from Dr. Brinda Nair, whose expertise and gentle approach are truly remarkable. My wife, who is highly sensitive to even minor discomfort, describes Dr. Nair’s care as impeccable, rating her a perfect 10/10. The office also demonstrates flexibility in scheduling, accommodating our needs with ease. Additionally, Anastasia’s helpfulness and professionalism enhance the overall experience. Serenity Dental is an excellent choice for quality dental care.

I’ve never enjoyed going to the Dentist, but the Doctors and staff at Serenity Dental make it easy and painless. The office is clean and everyone is always so kind and welcoming. I have seen Esme a few times for cleanings and she does an amazing job! My wife and I will definitely keep coming back.

A. E. (Verified Patient)

Dr. Nair provides the ultimate in “white glove” dental service. She’s not only a certified dentist but also an experienced practitioner of health & wellbeing. You will find that she provides an added level of service to get to know your needs.. In the past she has made critical suggestions, that have helped me get the necessary help from my primary care provider. Serenity is an accurate name for her practice. Her staff is an extension of her kindness and sincere mission to help our community. I applaud all the hard work her & her team has put in over the last few years. Serenity Dental gets my vote for the #1 dental practice in all of Austin! Tell them “Ravi” sent you. 🙂

Dr. Nair and her staff are extremely professional and very caring! I will absolutely be a repeat customer! Highly recommended:)

J. T. (Verified Patient)

I do not go to the dentist. The Navy dentists made me scared of doctors in general. This place and these Ladies (all i saw were females) were literally the most gentle and accommodating oral health providers EVER. They are an hour from my house and after my initial visit, my wife is also going to drive an hour away just to go to the RIGHT dentist, not just THE dentist. Serenity is the RIGHT one for me, if be willing to bet its the right one for you.

C. S. (Verified Patient)

Hands down the best dental experience around! Dr. Nair is excellent, as are every single one of the staff. Great communication, great systems, great people. Worth the drive, even with the Oak Hill highway construction! Thanks y'all.

H. Y. (Verified Patient)

The most caring, thoughtful dentist. I love Dr. Nair as she is always helping to make sure my teeth are healthy, protected, and so clean! Esme is also a wonderful part of Dr. Nair’s team. So lucky to have them and I also sent my husband their way and his teeth look incredible now.

C. C. (Verified Patient)

As a dental hygienist myself I can wholeheartedly say that Dr. Nair does excellent dental work. I’ve had very thorough and gentle cleanings by her and her hygienists as well as had a filling placed on one of my front teeth due to a chip in a very visible area and it is seamless with my natural tooth. The color match is perfect. I can also say that the equipment used here is top notch. I choose to get my cleanings done every 4 months and I get them done at the office I work at and here because I trust their work. I’ve been coming here for several years now and Dr. Nair and her team have not changed in their kind nature and fair prices.10/10 would recommend.

How often should I have a dental cleaning and exam?

Most patients benefit from cleanings and exams every six months. This schedule allows us to remove plaque before it causes problems and catch issues early. Patients with gum disease, frequent cavities, or certain medical conditions like diabetes may need more frequent visits, typically every three to four months.

Are dental cleanings painful?

You should experience little to no discomfort during cleanings. Our hygienists use gentle techniques and can adjust pressure based on your comfort level. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, we offer numbing options. Keeping up with regular cleanings actually reduces sensitivity and discomfort over time.

How long do dental cleanings and exams take?

A typical cleaning and exam appointment takes 45-60 minutes for patients with good oral health. New patients may need additional time for a complete assessment, including X-rays. Those with excessive buildup or who haven't had cleanings in years might require longer appointments or multiple visits.
