Irving, Texas – September 17, 2026 -- Active Dental has surpassed 2,500 five-star patient reviews on Google across its five Dallas-Fort Worth offices, part of a total of more than 2,800 Google reviews for the practice. Each of the five locations currently holds an average Google rating of 4.8 or 4.9 stars.
The practice grew from one Irving office in 2009 to five locations today
Founder Dr. Kalpesh Patel opened the first Active Dental office in Irving in 2009. The practice has since expanded to Plano, Frisco, Flower Mound and Prosper, building its review total across routine cleanings, children's checkups, restorative work and same-day emergency visits at every office.
Patients repeatedly cite short waits and upfront pricing
Reviews across all five locations frequently mention appointments starting on time, staff explaining treatment options clearly, and pricing discussed before care begins. Many patients describe being seen the same day for dental emergencies, including on Saturdays, while others note their children have been patients for years.
Extended hours and comfort amenities back up the review pattern
Active Dental offers extended weekday hours, Saturday appointments, same-day emergency care, and assistance with insurance and financing. Treatment rooms include blankets, pillows and in-room entertainment, with warm towels offered at the end of visits.
"When I opened our first office in Irving in 2009, the idea was simple: run a dental practice that respects people's time and gives them straight answers about their care," said Dr. Kalpesh Patel, founder of Active Dental. He added that the 2,500-review milestone reflects the work of dentists, hygienists, assistants and front-desk teams across all five offices.
The Plano office recently added three treatment rooms
The milestone arrives during a year of investment across the practice, including a renovation of the Plano location that added three treatment rooms along with new equipment and updated technology. All five Active Dental offices are currently accepting new patients.
