Panoramic X-Rays

Much like a panoramic picture, the Panoramic X-Ray (a full mouth X-ray), provides a full view of your entire oral cavity!
The X-ray provides a single picture of all your teeth and surrounding bones. It provides a 2D panoramic view of your entire mouth rather than just a couple of teeth at a time, an excellent alternative to the tiny pictures we has to piece together to see a complete set of your teeth. What this means to you as a patient is that there is greatly improved information for the doctor and can see much more than with traditional Xrays, thus allowing better diagnosis and treatment to you as the patient.

Low Dose Digital X-Rays

Dental x-rays (Radiographs) are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam. Digital Radiography is a type of X-ray imaging that uses digital X-ray sensors to replace traditional photographic X-ray film, producing enhanced computer images of teeth, gums, and other oral structures and conditions. This allows the doctors to get a much better view of your teeth and any potential dental conditions. The digital imaging software obtains a number of different views of your teeth to gain the best understanding of your situation and develop the most appropriate course of management.

Digital sensors are more responsive than film so that much less radiation is required to produce a digital image.

Intra-Oral Camera Lets You See for Yourself

Through technology, our patients can work together with our dentists to have healthy gums and beautiful teeth. With the intra-oral camera, you can see for yourself what work needs to be done on what teeth. This amazing miniature video camera produces clear and accurate pictures of all your teeth. You will enjoy making informed decisions together with our doctors, creating a bond of teamwork.

Dr. Gokhale is so kind and really tries to make you have a great experience. Dental work can be a bit painful, but Dr. Gokhale will listen to you and try to make sure you are comfortable during your cleaning. Her staff is friendly and you will feel welcomed to be there from the time you walk in to the time that you walk out. I am so glad that I found her through a friend referral.

I originally chose West Creek Dental because they were just a block away. I have since moved to North Austin, but I gladly hazard the drive down MoPac to see Dr Gokhale and her staff. Dr. Gokhale is super gentle. Absolutely painless dentistry! Cynthia at the front desk is friendly and efficient and she easily fixed me into their schedule to re-seat a temporary crown that had popped off. Dr G answered the after-hours call herself and followed up the next morning. Annette her tech, is super knowledgeable and skilled. She adjusted the permanent crown "micron by micron" until it felt perfectly natural. There's an attention to detail and service that you just can't find in a larger practice. I've been going to her going on 5 years. Well worth the drive!

My experience at West Creek Dental was excellent! The staff were very courteous and attentive. They explained the procedure and insurance / payment options in detail. Dr. Gokhale is very knowledgeable and precise in her explanation of work that needs to be done and treats you like you are the only patient in the office. Never rushed and never makes you feel pressured. Highly Recommended!

I had been MIA for a year but knew that I needed to get in to see Dr. G. They were so gracious and understood why I had been gone so long. Dr. G looked at my previous work that she did last year and found it to be in great working order. I got my teeth cleaned and they look great. She is going to do a deeper dive into my x-rays and see me for another visit. I'm really grateful for her entire team including Anali and Perla.

Let me start off by saying that the staff at West Creek Dental are fabulous. They are very thorough and gave me a pain free cleaning. Everything was explained in detail so I felt like they cared. I did have a couple of cavities so I came back to have them filled. I have extremely sensitive teeth so I wasn't to thrilled about filling my cavities. I hardly felt the injections and she worked quickly and gently giving me a pleasant experience. I have kept regular appointments and my teeth have never been healthier. What a great Dentist!

From the office manager, to the dental assistant/hygienist, to the dentist herself, all made me as comfortable as I could be and was more than accommodating to my needs.

Doc Gokhale is the bestI've been coming here for about 18 months. Started with a cleaning and wanted to fix my front teeth (never really straight, one was half fake from a break when I was a kid..)Anyway, Invisalign wasn't a good option so I opted for crowns... And let me tell you I get compliments weekly. Hell, random girl at a bar even made out with me because of it. Can you say that about your dentist? Yeah, I didn't think so.Had a handful of old metal fillings that were finally crapping out and have gotten 3 other crowns/replacement fillings and couldn't be happier.Don't listen to these other reviews... bunch of cheapskates and people complaining that their kid should be better... weak.Thanks Doc!

We have been visiting Dr.Poonam ever since they opened this office around 2.5 years ago. She is doing great job. My son really liked going there. He had cavities and she fixed them immediately. We visited a different Dental office where we had lot of billing issues. We don't have any such issues with West Creek Dental. Appointment scheduling is easy and they are also offering weekend appointments. They also do follow up calls once the procedure is complete.

I've been going here for about 5 years now and am very happy with the services provided by Dr. Gokhale. She's patient with me (I've had a history of dental discomfort/anxiety) and had good interactions with other related providers like the microendodontist (her referral) and my orthodontist (referred by someone else). Tidy office and pleasant staff. Would recommend to anyone.

Today Dr. G changed my smile. I am SO happy with the crowns and bridge I had done and it was all worth it! I shopped around trying different cosmetic dentists in the area; but Westcreek Dental was my first stop and I ended up coming back to it. No one else matches her sincere, genuine touch and her small, personal office. The girls on her team just make it all that much better of an experience. The price, quality, service was all stellar. I will be recommending her to any one needing dental work. Thanks again, Dr. G— i am SO HAPPY!

For the past 5 years West Creek Dental has been “fixing” the bad dental work my previous dentist managed to mess up and charged me for his bad work. The time taken and caring attitude is reassuring to me of the quality work and referrals provided to my dental care. Check West Creek Dental out for yourself. You decide and place value in your own experience.

I am very happy to have chosen WCD as my dental office. I must have been the most difficult client, but the whole team handled all my questions and insurance concerns.

Dr. Gokhale and her team are really wonderful. As a health care practitioner myself, I truly understand what is expected by patients with timeliness, professionalism and great outcomes.

I went in with a lot of pain so desperate I wanted my tooth pulled . I explained I had little time with my work schedule to go to oral surgeon appointments to save my tooth and get a root canal. They called around and found me an oral surgeon to take me immediately and do the work that same day and put me out of my pain. I appreciate their efforts as not all dentists would go that extra mile!

Just wanted to do a quick review of Westcreek Dental here in south Austin. Great staff, very organized and extremely clean facility. Dr. Gokhale is a top-notch technical master and does it all with very little discomfort to the patient.

Great staff, efficient, friendly, and caring. I know I am in good hands with Dr. G. I had gone to several Dentists over the years to discuss replacing my old veneers and every one of them told me I needed complete mouth restoration at the tune of $30,000 (minimum). I finally found Dr. G. and she was the only Dr. who listened to me and provided the care I had been searching for. She helped me understand what was really going on with my teeth and came up with a plan to focus on the priorities to get my teeth to a healthy state so I could have the best results possible with the cosmetic work that I really wanted. She delivered! I really appreciate her gentle approach and her willingness to tell it like it is. If you are looking for a Dentist who is not going to try to sell you services you don't need and is focused on doing the right thing for her patients, look no further than West Creek Dental. Everything that Dr. G. does, she takes the time to really explain, give options and include you in the decisions so you really feel like you have a voice in your plan of care. I really can't thank her enough for all she has done for me!

We had such a great experience at west creek dental!! Everyone was so friendly to me and my daughters. My daughters were nervous and had a lot of questions, the doctors and nurses answered all of their questions and were very patient with them. They took the time to show them the proper way to floss and brush as well!! The nurse at the front desk was so helpful and friendly as well. She engaged in conversation with my girls and was very helpful answering my questions. My girls left with a very positive experience and feel comfortable and ready for their next visit. I wish we would have found them sooner!! I highly recommend getting dental work here!!!

My husband is a patient at West Creek and he kept telling me to just try them because he know how I am. I am not a person that enjoy going to the dentist. It's very stressful and always cause me a lot of anxiety. But the staff at West Creek Dental was very understanding and treated me with respect and made sure I was a relaxed and my blood pressure and heart rate was at a respectable rate (?). It was a good experience and I know that my procedures will continue to become less stressful due to the care and professionalism of the staff.

First visit to a dentist in over twenty years, two visits resulted in three years of pain gone. two extractions. no pain. 20 to 30 min for pain preventive shots to take affect. 10 minutes for extractions, 5 minutes to recoup. Out the door. no mess no muss. I am 65 years old with a disability and they handled me perfect, cost around $550 with no insurance coverage.
