Hi! I’m Dr. Shivam Patel, DDS (AKA: Dr. Silver). Raised in Weatherford Tx after moving from California while in elementary school, I proudly call myself a Texan today. From then to now, I’ve always been a nerd. And proud of it! It’s actually how I got the name “Dr. Silver.” As a kid, and still to this day, reading for pleasure was my favorite pastime. That never stopped me from competing against my friends in basketball, footraces, or countless other physical activities and coming in 2nd place more often than not. Hence the name. “Never Gold, but always Silver.” Two decades later I was able to add the “Dr.” part to that nickname.
For me, healthcare was always the field I wanted to pursue. In high school, I shadowed every type of doctor imaginable. What drew me to dentistry was the realization that they got to combine the ability to develop relationships with their patients with being able to actively use their hands to deliver treatment. I certainly didn’t think my search for a career when I was fourteen years old would reveal what I can only describe as a calling!
After receiving my Biomedical Sciences Degree from Texas A&M University in 2018, I eagerly signed on for another four years at the Texas A&M College of Dentistry. In May of 2022, eight years of hard work paid off when I graduated again and earned the “DDS” title. A passion for dentistry and knowledge combined with the joy of meeting new people I can help is why when you come to see us, I’ll likely have a smile on my face. I look forward to seeing you and hope you stay happy, healthy, and smiling.
Some dental emergencies are simple and non-traumatic, such as a broken denture or a dislodged crown. Others are painful and serious such as a tooth knocked out at a ball game. You may be experiencing the pain of a tooth that has become infected. However, pain does not need to accompany the anxiety and discomfort of a dental emergency. At Hudson Oaks Family Dentistry, we want to alleviate your anxiety and of course your pain.
According to a report from the American Dental Association, the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey discovered that hospital emergency rooms are experiencing an increase of dental emergency visits. This increase is putting a strain on a system that is already maxed out as far as medical care is concerned. Hudson Oaks Family Dentistry patients have the option of getting proper emergency dental care at our dental office. You will not have to suffer through long waiting room delays and you can be assured that you will receive comfort and care for your dental emergency that goes far beyond that of a hospital emergency room.
A dental emergency is any type of severe pain or infection in the mouth, jaw, or teeth that requires immediate attention. Examples of common dental emergencies include toothaches, chipped or broken teeth, lost fillings, trauma to the face or mouth, fractured jaw, abscesses (infections) in the gums and/or teeth, gum swelling and pain, and wisdom tooth issues. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms it’s best to call your dentist right away.
We do everything we can to accommodate our emergency patients and provide prompt dental care. Same-day or next-day appointments are available as scheduling permits. Walk-ins are welcome although we do ask that you call us prior to your arrival so that we can accommodate your needs. As part of our commitment to our patients and their well-being, we strive to provide same-day treatment whenever possible, saving you time and money.
