Top Lindale Dental Office
You have so many dentists to choose from. Why choose a Lindale dental office with a name like "Center for Implant and General Dentistry?" Because the name is part of our history, the foundation that made us the experts in complete family dental care and implant surgery.
We provide services in virtually all phases of dentistry, and often do not have to refer patients for services elsewhere. From routine cleaning to reconstructive dentistry our team can take care of you and your family.
Our Lindale dental practice began under the direction and guidance of Dr. John Watkins, a long term professional in the dental industry. Building upon his practice, Dr. B. Clay Keith, DDS, and Dr. Paul Denson, DDS, have created an office that is designed to be comfortable, with all the newest technology and education to provide a pleasant dental experience, no matter what the patients needs may be.
The friendly team at Center for Implant and General Dentistry is trained to provide comfort, develop a relationship with our patients, and have some fun along the way. We not only like to MAKE your smile better, we like to SEE YOU SMILE BIGGER!

Meet Our Lindale Dental Team
Dr. Clay Keith
Hello! I’m Dr. Clay Keith.
My philosophy for patient care has always been very straightforward: provide my patients with enough information to make good decisions concerning their dental health. I believe in always being honest, gentle, never judgemental, extensively compassionate, and consistently understanding. Many times, my patients will hear me say, “If you were my family member, this is what I would recommend.” It is so true! This feeling has always guided me to make the right decisions concerning patient care.
Paul Denson, D.D.S.
Hello, I’m Dr. Paul Denson.
Behind our drive at The Center for Implant and General Dentistry, you will find my established philosophy: strive for perfection but settle for excellence. Our belief is that the best dental care is fostered through communications and utilization of the latest techniques and materials. I am excited to meet you in our new state of the art facility with the most current in dental technology that allows us to deliver 21st-century dentistry in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
