Fluoride Treatments for Laredo Families
Our Laredo Zapata office sits at 1918 US-83, just south of the Loop 20 interchange and a short drive from Cuatro Vientos, Los Obispos, and the colonias along Mines Road. Families from Zapata Highway, Las Cruces, and South Laredo bring kids in for first-tooth checkups, CHIP-covered cleanings, and bilingual fluoride visits without a long drive into the city.
Webb County has one of the highest pediatric cavity rates in Texas — sweetened cafecito, hard candies, and limited fluoridated water in some outlying colonias all play a role — so preventive visits matter early and often. We see a lot of first-time parents referred from WIC offices on Saunders and from Head Start centers along the US-83 corridor.
The whole team speaks Spanish, intake paperwork comes in both languages, and we're open Saturday until 4:00 PM so a Monday-through-Friday working parent doesn't have to choose between a paycheck and a child's six-month cleaning.
