About Great White Dental
Great White Dental is a dental practice on Broadway in the Westfort Alliance area of San Antonio, Texas. 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.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

If you hate to go to the dentist like I do, go here. I recommended this place. Very nice staff. They were all great.
The staff at Great White Dental has always been friendly, compassionate, and professional. Dr. Cortez goes above and beyond to explain my treatment options and ensure I fully understand each procedure before moving forward. I highly recommend Great White Dental and Dr. Cortez to anyone looking for quality dental care. As someone who experiences a lot of anxiety about dental visits, I truly appreciate the patience, understanding, and comfort they provide.
They charge too much for exams and extractions between two-hundred to three-hundred dollars no way
The best local business in San Antonio Antonio, hands-down. Trustworthy and honest owner, and kind staff 🙌
I love the service and have been seeing Dr Martinez for years.
We have used Great White Dental for a few years and love them. They see my three kids-13, 11, 9-and I. All the staff are friendly. It is easy to book appointments, and service/appointments are great. I felt like we received reliable information about our dental health and dental needs. We have seen them with and without insurance. They worked seemlessly with Tricare Dental. When we were in between insurance, we purchased their in-house membership option. It was a good deal and easy to use as well. Thier location is easy to access, although the parking lot can be busy. The facility is clean, fresh, and comfortable.
10/10 experience! My cleaning was done by Alma and she was SO gentle, thorough and she educated me on so much! The assistants were all amazing when taking my X-rays! Front desk ladies were so peaceful and kind, Dr. Cortez was very nice and helpful. I found my new dentist
I will say I had and currently am having an amazing experience. So this was my third consultation as the first two dentists couldn’t work with me or they had no payment plan offers or assistance. I had a bottom right problematic tooth that NEEDED a root canal. I was in a huge amount of pain that went to my jaw. My visit with Dr Cortez was quick but very straightforward. I had questions and he answered them. I did not feel rushed. I was denied for the cherry financial assistance but that’s on me (I have TERRIBLE credit). They were STILL able to work with me. I scheduled a root canal a week later and had to come back another week because my tooth wasn’t fully healed. When I came back I felt sooooo comfortable. I cannot stress how amazing this experience all was. I was all giddy when I got home with my root canal and temporary crowns Put in. They always asked me if I was okay or needed anything. Once I felt a little pain, they took care of it IMMEDIATELY. I have never been excited to go back. I have united healthcare insurance and they took my insurance. The staff from as soon as you open the door was an amazing experience. I plan to bring my son here as well. If you want to come here, please just communicate with them.
Amazing! Never going back to my old dentist as this place and the people far exceed my past experiences in every way. Friendly, patient, warm and knowledgeable doctor. (Dr. McMahan) She answered all of my questions with enthusiasm and genuine interest. Great caring staff. More affordable. Very clean. A much softer touch…while still being thorough, than my old dentist. I don’t feel any hesitation in actually going every 6 months as recommended.
Although I hate going to the dentist, this place is the best experience I’ve had. I moved to San Antonio a few months ago and had A LOT of work that needed to be done on my teeth. Dr. Bobby Cortez and his team did an amazing job of explaining the plan of care to me and executing flawlessly. The culture in the office is great and everyone is nice. Highly recommend.
Dr. Cortez was very skilled. I felt like he was well experienced during the whole procedure. I had a positive experience today and I feel no longer fear going to the dentist.
