Simone earned her Bachelor of Science degree from Xavier University of Louisiana and her Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Rutgers University School of Dentistry, formerly the University of Medicine and Dentistry, New Jersey. This vivacious leader is the founder and president of the Houston Minority Dental Society and is an active member of the American Dental Association (ADA), National Dental Association (NDA), American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), and the Greater Houston Dental Society (GHDS).

She also sits on the Board of Educators for the Dental Assisting School at the University of Everest, Houston Campus.

​Most notably, the free dentistry and health fair. This program targets families within the Missouri City radius and offers free dental services, eye exams, and health screenings to over 50 families. Further, Smile Design Studios offers a mentorship program called Smile Design Studio Academy, which affords high school and college students an opportunity to learn more about the field of dentistry while actively shadowing dental professionals. Smile Design Studios also adopts a family for the holiday season and delivers food and supplies to families in need. Recently, Simone was awarded The 2018 Black Girl Excellence Medical Professional of the Year Award through Lifted Lifestyle.

Dr. Christina Prak

Christina Prak, DDS, is dedicated to providing exceptional dental care to every patient who visits Smile Design Studios. After completing her undergraduate BS in kinesiology from the University of Houston, she obtained her DDS from UTHealth Houston School of Dentistry in Houston, TX. Dr. Prak recognizes the significance of a beautiful smile and works hard to make her patients feel confident in their appearance. She demonstrates her commitment to exceptional dentistry through her active participation in the American Dental Association (ADA) and Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD).

Dr. Prak fills her life with diverse interests outside of dentistry. She spends her free time lifting weights and always makes time to travel to new destinations. When she’s not on the go, she loves spending time with her three pets – Shaggy, Nora, and Jojo. Dr. Prak understands that being an excellent dentist involves more than just mastering technical skills. Connecting with patients and creating a comfortable atmosphere is equally as important. By filling her free time doing the things she loves, she’s able to come to Smile Design Studios with enthusiasm and share her passions with those around her!

FINANCING & INSURANCE

At Smile Design Studios, we want all of our patients to receive the dental care they need to preserve their smiles and boost their confidence. This is why our office team makes it easy for you to use your dental insurance plan.

We work with most major dental insurance companies and understand the best way to maximize your benefits. Our team will help you determine your coverage limits and the optimal way to get the most for your insurance dollars. In most cases, we can file your claims for you and receive payments directly from your insurance company to make it more convenient.

You can also pay with most major credit cards or debit cards at our office or through our online payment system. And for those patients who are without dental insurance, under-covered, or those who have incurred expenses from cosmetic dental treatment, we also offer CareCredit at our Missouri City office – an additional third-party financing option that allows you to spread out your payments over time or at a more affordable pace that works for your family.
