Our Story

Spring Valley Dental Associates was founded in 1994 with a simple mission: to provide exceptional dental care in a comfortable, welcoming environment. What started as a single-doctor practice has grown into a comprehensive dental team serving the Dallas community with advanced technology and time-tested techniques.

Our practice philosophy centers on conservative, preventive care that helps patients maintain their natural teeth for life. We believe in taking the time to educate our patients about their oral health and working together to develop treatment plans that fit both their clinical needs and personal preferences.

Today, we're proud to be a trusted partner in oral health for families throughout Dallas, from routine cleanings to complex restorative work, all delivered with the personal attention and gentle care that has defined our practice for over 30 years.

Dr. Nicole Houshmand

Dr. Nicole Houshmand, DDS

Partner and Practice Owner

Dr. Houshmand grew up watching dentistry practiced at its best — she’s a second-generation dentist who knows firsthand that the chair can feel scary. She’s certified in conscious sedation and makes it her mission that anxious patients finally get the care they’ve been putting off. Patients who’ve avoided the dentist for years regularly tell her it was the easiest appointment they’ve ever had.

“My goal is to make every patient feel heard and comfortable. When patients feel relaxed and informed, they make better decisions about their health — and they actually come back.”
