About Celebrate Dental & Braces - San Antonio Bandera · San Antonio
Celebrate Dental & Braces – San Antonio Bandera is a neighborhood dental and orthodontic office at 6810 Bandera Road, Suite 2, in San Antonio's 78238 ZIP code. It is one of several San Antonio locations of Celebrate Dental & Braces, a multi-location group founded by orthodontist Dr. David Ferguson, DDS, CAGS, in 2011 and headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. The Bandera office offers general dentistry, orthodontics (metal braces and Invisalign clear aligners), cosmetic dentistry, denture and implant services, and same-day emergency dental care, with extended weekday and Saturday hours designed around working families. The practice is built around the slogan 'celebrate your smile' and emphasizes affordable in-house financing with no credit check.
Celebrate Dental & Braces was founded in January 2011 by orthodontist Dr. David Ferguson, who moved to San Antonio and opened the group's first offices there. The Bandera Road location in San Antonio is one of the original clinics in the network and serves the Leon Valley / Northwest San Antonio area along Bandera Road, a major commercial corridor on the city's west side. The group has since grown to more than 24 clinics across the Southwest and other U.S. markets, but the Bandera-San Antonio office remains a flagship San Antonio practice offering the full menu of general, cosmetic, orthodontic, denture, implant, and emergency dental services under one roof. The Bandera location features extended hours (Monday–Friday 8 am to 7 pm and Saturday 8 am to 1 pm), same-day emergency walk-in appointments, and bilingual English/Spanish accommodations, with payment plans that do not require a credit check. The Bandera San Antonio office is staffed by Dr. David Ferguson, DDS, CAGS, along with Dr. Karan Shah, DMD, MPH, BDS, Dr. Alarbi, DDS, CECSMO, CAGS, ABO, and Dr. Ajai, DDS, supported by a team of dental assistants, hygienists, and front-desk staff. The wider Celebrate Dental group runs an annual free Dentistry from the Heart event around Thanksgiving that has served roughly 1,000 patients in a single day, and its founder has been recognized as a regional Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year (2022).
