Dentists of Katy Park Opens with a Focus on Community Health and Cutting-Edge Care

November 18 2024

Dr. Diana J. Upright, DDS, MPH, is bringing a fresh approach to dental care in Katy with the grand opening of Dentists of Katy Park in late October. With a deep passion for both patient education and community wellness, Dr. Upright is excited to provide a new kind of dental experience that goes beyond just cleanings and checkups. Located in the thriving Katy Park area, her practice is designed to empower local residents with the knowledge and tools to prioritize their oral health as part of their overall well-being.

Dr. Upright, a seasoned dentist with over a decade of experience in Sugar Land, explained why she chose Katy Park as the location for her new practice: “We opened Dentists of Katy Park in this vibrant, growing community because it’s the perfect place for us to make a real difference. We’re eager to contribute to the health and wellness of Katy’s residents and provide a place where families can feel confident in their dental care.”

For Dr. Upright, opening this new practice represents more than just a business venture—it’s a chance to transform the way people think about their health. “We’re here to empower our community and help people understand that a healthy smile is key to their overall health. We want to educate patients about the connection between oral health and overall wellness, so they can make informed choices and take control of their health,” she shared.

Before founding Dentists of Katy Park, Dr. Upright practiced dentistry for over a decade at a Smile Generation-trusted office in Sugar Land. Her experience in that environment helped her hone her skills and build lasting relationships with patients. Reflecting on her journey, she noted, “My time at Smile Generation helped me refine my expertise and prepared me for this new chapter. Now, I’m excited to bring that experience and personal touch to the Katy community.”

Dentists of Katy Park offers cutting-edge care with modern amenities, including on-site 3D imaging, advanced laser gum therapy, and same-day full-coverage crown services. Dr. Upright emphasized how these technologies are a game changer for patients, stating, “We’re committed to providing top-quality dental care with the latest technology. Our goal is to treat all stages of gum disease, offer comprehensive services like oral surgery and endodontics, and provide fast, efficient care all under one roof.”

The team at Dentists of Katy Park recently celebrated their grand opening with a ribbon cutting ceremony alongside the Katy Area Chamber of Commerce. Matthew Ferraro, President and CEO of the Katy Area Chamber of Commerce, celebrated the addition of Dentists of Katy Park to the community. “Dr. Upright’s commitment to providing innovative dental care and her focus on patient education is exactly what makes her practice a standout addition to Katy. We’re excited to see how Dentists of Katy Park will positively impact our community, and we wish them great success,” Ferraro said.

In addition to providing exceptional dental care, Dr. Upright is dedicated to giving back to the community. Dentists of Katy Park organizes an annual Serve Day, where the team partners with local organizations to offer free dental care to underserved individuals. “We’re committed to supporting our community,” Dr. Upright explained. “Whether it’s volunteering at the food bank or organizing park cleanups, we want to give back and make a positive impact in the area we call home.”

With her combination of expertise, passion, and dedication to the Katy community, Dr. Diana J. Upright and her team are setting the stage for Dentists of Katy Park to become a trusted healthcare provider for years to come.
