About Great Expressions Dental Centers
Based on Stone Oak Parkway in the Stone Oak area of San Antonio, Texas, Great Expressions Dental Centers is a dental practice serving the area. A professional cleaning removes the plaque and hardened tartar that brushing and flossing cannot reach, particularly along the gumline, and is the core of routine preventive care. Most people benefit from a cleaning roughly every six months, more often for those managing gum disease.
Affordable care means the practice sets out to make treatment accessible on a self-pay basis or through a payment arrangement, rather than assuming every patient arrives with comprehensive insurance. It is worth asking directly what options exist before assuming a needed treatment is out of reach.
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.
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.

My first visit after the Austin location closed, and even though I’m now 75 minutes away, it was absolutely worth the drive. The South Austin office had gone downhill over the last two years — I only kept going because it was close to home. The San Antonio team, though, was fantastic. Night‑and‑day difference. The dentist and hygienist actually explained my regimen clearly, and if I stick with it, I’m expecting great results. I honestly can’t wait to go back. GE Dental is a big corporation, so don’t assume every location is run the same. The San Antonio office sets the bar.
A very good experience with the whole team. It was my first experience with a dentist in the USA since moving there, and they took the time to explain everything and reassure me.
Have been visiting this dental practice for years and very satisfied.
The entire staff was very accomodating. Very friendly and efficient.
Outstanding service and staff
They are absolutely amazing here. I am so happy with my dental experiences and my Invisalign progress. They really do take the time to explain your dental care and get to know you personally!
I was very impressed with the treatment I received. A very thorough examination which included a full explanation and potential options for all my issues. The staff was very polite, courteous, and accommodating to all my needs and requests. Great Expressions will definitely be my dental care choice for the foreseeable future.
Dr Forney has always been very gentle and has worked with me over 5+ Years! Very grateful for the wonderful staff and their efforts making me comfortable and their sincere kindness! Dr Forney is the best with her gentle hands and any of my concerns!
Dr Forney is a wonderful dentist. My family has been going to her for years and we are grateful to have found her. Her staff are great to work with also. All of them. My daughter has special needs that impact her oral health. Dr. Forney’s treatment plans for my daughter have improved her oral health by leaps and bounds. I completely trust her wisdom and expertise.
Prior to scheduling an appointment with Great Expressions, I conducted thorough research on Google to ensure that I would receive the comprehensive dental care I desired. After years of neglecting my oral hygiene, I resolved to take the first step and schedule an appointment. The communication and educational support provided throughout the process were exceptional. The hygienist demonstrated an exceptional level of meticulousness and attention to detail, creating a comfortable and reassuring environment for me. Amber, the front desk representative, was highly helpful in addressing any questions I had before my appointment. The positive feedback surrounding Great Expressions is well-deserved. I am eager to regain my dental health and confidence. I informed the hygienist of areas that she assured me would be addressed and reassured me that she would take care of it. Her expertise and dedication were evident in the results, demonstrating her 15 years of experience as a hygienist. Thank you for caring and having passion for what you do. I know I am in great hands. Respectfully, Cindy
Dr Forney is always so knowledgeable and kind in explaining all work that needs to be done and why. All of the staff I have ever interacted with for my cleanings have also been very nice and professional. I love that they have new, state-of-the-art equipment and Dr Forney is very experienced with Invisalign.
Normally, when you're getting a crown, 2 fillings, and fitted for Invisalign on the same day, you can expect to be a little nervous. However, since I have found this gem of a dental practice, I had no apprehension at all, and I was not disappointed whatsoever. The fillings and crown went smoothly and painlessly, which is a complete 180 from previous treatments at a different dentist. Dr. Schoenholtz made me feel comfortable from the start and explained everything as she went. Her assistant, Jayla, was beyond helpful as she walked me through everything I needed to know about the Invisalign process and my responsibilities. I can't say enough good things about this practice, and everyone from the front desk to the hygienist, to the assistants deserve 5 stars. If you're considering a change in dentists, run, don't walk, to this place.
