About Haltom City, Texas
Haltom City is a close-knit community of roughly 44,700 residents tucked in the northeastern corner of Tarrant County, sharing borders with Fort Worth, North Richland Hills, and Richland Hills. Incorporated in 1949, the city grew rapidly during the postwar era as families sought affordable homes near the expanding Fort Worth economy. Today it retains a strong blue-collar, working-family identity that its long-time residents wear as a badge of pride. Green spaces like Buffalo Ridge Park give families a place to gather, and the Haltom City Public Library serves as a community anchor for lifelong learners of every age.
The city is home to a diverse population with deep roots in Tarrant County, and its central location along major corridors like Denton Highway and NE 28th Street makes it highly accessible to surrounding communities. Local businesses and longtime residents alike contribute to a neighborhood feel that larger cities often struggle to replicate. It is exactly the kind of community where trusted, long-standing healthcare providers matter — and where Fort Worth Dental is proud to serve.

Frequently Asked Questions — Haltom City
How far is Fort Worth Dental from Haltom City, and is parking available?
Fort Worth Dental is located at 4620 Citylake Blvd W in Fort Worth, which is approximately 8 minutes from most parts of Haltom City via Haltom Road or Basswood Boulevard. Our office features ample free surface parking right at the building, so you will never have to worry about finding a spot before your appointment.
What exactly is LANAP and how is it different from traditional gum surgery?
LANAP stands for Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure. Unlike conventional gum surgery, which requires a scalpel to cut away diseased tissue and sutures to close the wound, LANAP uses an FDA-cleared dental laser to precisely target and eliminate diseased gum tissue and bacteria while leaving healthy tissue intact. There is no cutting, no stitches, minimal post-procedure discomfort, and most patients heal significantly faster than they would after traditional periodontal surgery.
Is LANAP treatment right for me if my gum disease is severe?
LANAP was specifically designed to treat moderate to severe periodontitis — cases where gum disease has progressed beyond what a standard cleaning can address. Our certified LANAP team will perform a thorough evaluation, including periodontal charting and digital X-rays, to determine the extent of your gum disease and whether LANAP is the appropriate treatment. Many patients who were told they needed traditional surgery have been successfully treated with the LANAP protocol instead.
Will my dental insurance cover LANAP laser gum treatment?
Many dental insurance plans that cover traditional periodontal surgery will also provide benefits toward LANAP, since it treats the same condition through a clinically proven, FDA-cleared protocol. Coverage varies by plan and employer, so our knowledgeable front-desk team will verify your benefits and explain exactly what your insurance is likely to cover before treatment begins. We also offer flexible financing options. Contact us at (817) 985-3337 to discuss your specific plan.
How many LANAP appointments will I need, and what is the recovery like?
LANAP treatment is typically completed in one or two appointments, depending on the severity of your gum disease. Each session treats one half of the mouth. Because there is no surgical incision or suturing, most patients experience only mild soreness and sensitivity after the procedure and can return to work or normal activities the following day. Your dentist will provide specific post-treatment care instructions, and follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor your healing and the reattachment of gum tissue to the tooth root.
