About Advanced Smile Care
Based on Lockhill Selma Road in San Antonio, Texas, Advanced Smile Care is a dental practice serving the area. General dentistry covers the routine and restorative care most people need most often — examinations, cleanings, fillings, and preventive checks that catch problems while they are still small and inexpensive to treat. Regular attendance, roughly every six months for most patients, is what makes that early-catch approach actually work.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list.

Needed a new dentist, and this location is close to home with good reviews. However, after being treated, they seem to just be interested in upselling you with unnecessary procedures. On top of that, they lie to you about what the cost of the visit/treatment is. I was told by the finance manager what I would pay the day of the exam and the day of the treatment. I made those payments, and now, a month later, I just got sent another bill in the mail. Seems like a bunch of snake oil salesmen rather than dentists. Won't be returning.
This dentist's office is absolutely the best, from the service you get to the follow-up. Assistance is provided for all clerical needs. Betsy, the front desk manager, is the best. Gabby, my hygienist, is absolutely wonderful for my teeth/gums, and Dr. Benjamin made my wisdom teeth extractions a breeze.
Advance followup, courteous Front desk staff and very comfortable/expert services from Hygenist & Doc
Congratulations, Advanced Smile Care on achieving what most dental businesses strive for. Your customer service, scheduling, professional dentistry staff, and your professional administrative staff all operated in an exceptional manner. From the initial phone call through the check out process went flawless and proficient. I truly appreciate the last minute care that you provided my wife. She had reached out to other dental clinics for assistance with her pain and discomfort. She raved about the dental care and professional services she received all the way home. A salute and shoutout to Dr. Selsa Gonzalez. She is a true professional and exemplary dentist! Thank you again Advanced Smile Care!
I enjoy going to ASC! Extremely friendly and professional. Dr Laura Benjamin is wonderful. Abbey is an awesome hygienist. Today I saw Jamie. She made me feel very comfortable & I enjoyed the small talk. Betsy at the front desk always greets you with a smile! Love those cookies. Thanks so much.
Advanced Smile Care has always been wonderfully thorough, very friendly, and has excellent dental technology!
I always have an extremely plesant experience when I go there. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable about their individual positions. I feel so comfortable there.
I have been coming here for years. Today I had a dental emergency, I called and they were able to get me in today. I was so relieved to be able to see Dr Thomas and staff.
Unfortunately I have been their client for more than 5 years and this last time was horrible. I was told that my cavity under my bridge, work they did, was not salvageable due to the tooth being so bad. I was told I have several more cavities and needed to pull 3 teeth and needed to consider a partial or implants. The dentist told me that her husband was a root canal specialist and she showed him the X-ray and there was nothing that could be saved. I panicked and left the office because I couldn’t believe what they were telling me. I went and had a second opinion and was told that my tooth could be saved and there was no reason to pull my good teeth. The new dentist sent my x-rays to two root canal specialist and I was able to save my tooth and all the other teeth, which by the way were good teeth according to the specialist. The dentist and specialist reassured me that there was no reason to pull teeth. A good dentist wants to save your teeth. The root canal specialist fixed my bridge that was poorly done and did an amazing root canal. I am so glad that I got a second opinion but the simple fact that these people are just in it for money is so disappointing. When they were owned by Dr. Kboudi they were honest and good but the new ownership are liars and are money hungry. I will never return and I will make sure that everyone knows how deceitful these people are! So glad I got a second opinion!
Love my hygienist Erin, it was my first time back to the dentist after a few years due to insurance and finances, and she made me feel comfortable and answered any questions I had (:
This is a great dental office! My Dentist Dr S,Gonzalez well she’s a real gem! Very good at her job. Painless Dr that really does all she can so your comfortable,pain free, caring, explained it all. And she’s very skilled. That practice was lucky to get her! And she’s patient with scared, and prior damaged patients that sit in her chair. She’s brought back my self esteem and hope for the ability to eat steak whenever I want again! Thank you !
