About Kennedale, Texas
Kennedale is a tight-knit, proudly independent city tucked into the southeastern corner of Tarrant County, bordered by Arlington, Fort Worth, and Mansfield. Although it sits squarely within the urban DFW footprint, Kennedale maintains a genuine small-town identity that longtime residents fiercely protect. The city is perhaps best known to motorsports enthusiasts for Kennedale Raceway Park, a beloved drag-racing facility that has drawn competitors and fans from across Texas for decades, giving the community a spirited, hard-working character that shows up in everything from local civic events to its family-owned businesses along Kennedale Parkway.
Beyond the raceway, Sonora Park serves as a gathering point for community events, youth athletics, and weekend recreation, reflecting how much Kennedale values outdoor life and neighborly connection. The city has seen measured growth in recent years, attracting young families and professionals who want proximity to the Fort Worth and Arlington job markets without sacrificing the sense of community that defines Kennedale. That same community-first mindset is exactly what Fort Worth Dental brings to every patient interaction — personalized, attentive care that treats you like a neighbor, not a number.

Frequently Asked Questions — Kennedale
How far is Fort Worth Dental from Kennedale, and what is the easiest way to get there?
Our office at 4620 Citylake Blvd W in Fort Worth is approximately 16 minutes from Kennedale via I-20 West. Take I-20 West toward Fort Worth and exit at Hulen Street or Bryant Irvin Road, then follow signs toward Citylake Blvd W. Parking is free and easily accessible right at our building, so there is no stress getting in and out of your appointment.
What exactly is LANAP and how is it different from traditional gum surgery?
LANAP stands for Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure. Unlike traditional gum surgery, which requires a scalpel to cut away diseased tissue and sutures to close the wound, LANAP uses an FDA-cleared laser to precisely target and remove only infected tissue while leaving healthy gum tissue intact. There is no cutting, no stitches, significantly less discomfort, and a much faster recovery — most patients return to normal activities the next day.
Is LANAP laser gum treatment safe, and is your team qualified to perform it?
Yes. LANAP is the only laser gum disease treatment that has received FDA clearance based on published human histological studies proving true periodontal regeneration. Our Fort Worth Dental team is certified in the LANAP laser protocol, meaning we have completed the specific training and credentialing required to perform this advanced procedure with the highest standard of care.
Will my dental insurance cover LANAP treatment?
Many dental insurance plans that cover traditional periodontal surgery also provide benefits for LANAP, since it treats the same underlying condition. Coverage varies by plan, so our team will conduct a thorough benefits review on your behalf before treatment begins. We encourage Kennedale residents to schedule a free consultation so we can assess your periodontal health and help you understand your coverage options.
How do I know if I need LANAP or just a regular cleaning?
LANAP is indicated for patients diagnosed with moderate to severe periodontitis — a stage of gum disease that has progressed beyond what a routine cleaning can address. Signs that you may benefit from LANAP include persistent bad breath, gum recession, bleeding or swollen gums, loose teeth, or a previous diagnosis of periodontal disease. During your free consultation at Fort Worth Dental, our team will perform a comprehensive periodontal evaluation to determine the appropriate level of care for your specific situation.
