What We Do
Dental hygienist uses a scaler to get rid of plaque and tartar around your gum line, as well as in between your teeth. Regular cleanings are the foundation of lifelong oral health and help catch small issues before they become big ones.
A complete and thorough patient examination covering everything from pre-existing conditions, gum health, even screenings, and diagnostic exams to guarantee optimal oral health.
Toothache at 9 AM on a Tuesday? Walk right in. Our limited dental exam addresses specific problems like toothaches, infections, or trauma to the teeth — no appointment needed to get same-day relief.
Permanent replacement teeth that look and function like the real thing. Dr. Murga evaluates bone density, gum health, and your long-term needs so every implant is built to last for years.
From whitening to veneers, our cosmetic work is grounded in oral health first. We help you feel confident about your smile while making sure every procedure supports the long-term health of your teeth.
Straighten teeth discreetly without traditional metal braces. Clear retainers are custom-fitted at our Bridge Blvd office and designed for adults and teens who want a more comfortable orthodontic option.

Why Dental Wellness
Got a toothache this morning? Come to our Bridge Blvd office. No appointment needed for emergencies. We see you the same day — because dental pain doesn't wait.
Oral health shouldn't depend on your plan. We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and most major insurance providers so cost is never a barrier to keeping your family's teeth healthy.
No corporate chain. No rotating doctors you've never met. Dr. Murga — a TAMU Baylor College of Dentistry graduate — leads a small team that knows your name and your family's dental history.
Patients say we "never make them feel rushed." Our nurturing, safe atmosphere was designed for anxious patients — where clear explanations replace surprises, and gentle care replaces fear.
We track your oral health year to year, catch small problems early, and build a plan that keeps you out of the emergency chair. Prevention over costly procedures — that's the Dental Wellness approach.
Dr. Murga was raised in Guatemala and speaks fluent Spanish. Our team communicates in both English and Spanish so every patient fully understands their diagnosis, options, and treatment plan.
