About Gies Family Dental

Gies Family Dental provides affordable family dental services to patients on the far west side of San Antonio from its office at Suite 137, 9179 Grissom Road, San Antonio, TX 78251. Grissom Road in the far west side of the 78251 zip code runs through the Lackland AFB-adjacent communities of the far west SA corridor, accessible for patients from across the far west SA and Lackland-vicinity communities who seek affordable family dental care close to home.

Grissom Road honors Virgil "Gus" Grissom — one of NASA's original Mercury Seven astronauts — whose name also graces Grissom Air Reserve Base in Indiana. The Lackland AFB-adjacent community of the far west SA corridor has a deeply military character, with a large veteran and active-duty population that lends the area its own identity. Gies Family Dental serves this community with affordable family dental care suited to military and civilian households alike.

Affordable dental care, dental cleaning, and family dental services cover the full range of preventive and restorative needs for patients of all ages within a single practice. Comprehensive oral examinations evaluate tooth structure, gum tissue health, bite alignment, and existing restorations. Professional cleanings remove calculus and plaque deposits between visits, supporting long-term gum health. For patients with active decay, composite fillings restore tooth integrity. Dental crowns address more significantly damaged teeth, and extractions are performed when preservation is not feasible.

Grissom Road at 9179 on the far west side is accessible from Loop 410 West and the Grissom-Marbach corridor serving the Lackland-adjacent and far west SA communities, with parking available at the commercial suite. Gies Family Dental is an affordable family dental resource for far west San Antonio patients in the 78251 community.

Let me start off by saying I hate going to the dentist, so I’m always a little nervous before an appointment. However, Lulu, who did my cleaning, was incredibly comforting and made the entire process go so smoothly. She was gentle, patient, and made sure I felt at ease the whole time. The front desk staff was also amazing. They were very informative and took the time to break down my bill so I fully understood everything. On top of that, they accept Cherry financing, which is a huge help because it allows you to set up a payment plan instead of having to pay everything upfront. From start to finish, I had a great experience. Everyone was friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about making the visit as stress-free as possible. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for excellent dental care!

Had an emerging dental issue and thought I would get an appointment. Dr. Gies called back advising that I go to the ER. Long story short, I had to be admitted to the hospital for a few days and got serious emergency treatment. Followed up with Dr. Gies and we are back on course for regular treatment. Thank you!

Very pleased with my visit. Everyone was friendly from the start at check in with front desk staff, to my excellent teeth cleaning with Hygienist Lulu who is bilingual ( A plus!). The dentist took time to explain everything and even gave dinner reservation recommendation for me to take my wife for her birthday. It is nice to find a dental office that truly cares about their patients .

Staff was so amazing and attentive from the moment they answered the phone Bianca reassured me and was very informative. Upon my arrival it was the same. Everyone was pleasant and kind. Erica took me to the back n explained every step to me during X-rays then Dr. Geis was so sweet. Let me know what his diagnosis was and his plan of action. Then ofc they explained my financial options etc. once we had our action plan they took amazing care of me and made sure i was ok every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for better!

Courteous, professional and knowledgeable which they conveyed providing me options on what would be best in caring for my dental health. Dr. Gies was exceptional in taking time to evaluate my dental situation and offered alternatives since it had been awhile since my last dental appointment. The staff was great and made me feel very comfortable and confident that I was in the right place.

The receptionist was very friendly and helpful in trying to obtain my last X-rays from the previous dentist. The X-ray technician was very friendly and explained procedures ahead of me and was very careful. Dr Gies was thorough and made recommendations I could proceed with. Everyone was outstanding and recommended this dental business.

I had an exceptional experience with both the dentist and the hygienist during my recent visit. From the moment I arrived, the team made me feel welcomed and comfortable. The hygienist was incredibly thorough, gentle, and attentive; explaining each step and making sure I was at ease the entire time. My teeth were very pleased!

I recently switched to Dr. Gies after feeling like my previous dentist had become more focused on billing than patient care, and I’m really glad I made the change. The entire experience here has been completely different — in the best way. From the moment you walk in, the office feels welcoming and homey. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes sure you’re comfortable the whole time. Heather, the hygienist I saw, was awesome. She explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood what she was doing and why. Dr. Gies himself is great — very personable, patient, and not dismissive at all. He took the time to actually get to know me and talk through my dental history and care plan instead of rushing in and out like some offices do. Overall, you can tell this place genuinely cares about their patients. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a dentist who prioritizes quality care and a great experience.
