Dr. Ash leads the practice with a calm, conservative philosophy: explain everything clearly, treat what needs treating, and never push procedures a patient doesn't need. Patients consistently single him out as "incredibly thorough and gentle."
Three dentists, a hygiene team you'll know by name, and a front desk that remembers yours. At Lake Highlands Dental we treat everyone like our best friends — or even family.
"Dr. Sajjad Ashnagar, Dr. Faisal Ladak and Dr. Xavier Goode are proud to honor the memory and uphold the legacy of Dr. Lyndel Stripling by continuing to give you the very best dental care possible."
From the Lake Highlands Dental family
Three general and cosmetic dentists, one office, one shared standard: thorough, gentle, and explained clearly before anything begins.
Dr. Ash leads the practice with a calm, conservative philosophy: explain everything clearly, treat what needs treating, and never push procedures a patient doesn't need. Patients consistently single him out as "incredibly thorough and gentle."
Dr. Ladak builds the treatment plans patients actually finish — staged, affordable, and walked through step by step with the patient before anything begins. Recent reviews credit him for plans that "feel hopeful and pleased" rather than overwhelming.
Dr. Goode handles veneers, Invisalign, whitening, and the everyday family visits that keep small problems small. Patients of every age from 2 up are welcome on his chair — and he is unhurried with the youngest ones.
The faces behind the front desk, the cleanings, and the treatment coordination. Patients name them by first name in their reviews — and they remember yours.
"Penni has been my hygienist for many years and she takes very good care of my teeth." Patients book around her schedule for a reason.
Recent reviews praise Misty for being "awesome and gentle" during cleanings — and for the kind of small talk that makes a visit feel short.
Ana walks every patient through their plan in plain language before treatment starts — so the conversation about cost and timing happens up front, not at the front desk.
"Donna greets me and takes care of all the insurance and she is so friendly!" If you've ever waited on hold with a dental insurer, you'll appreciate her.
"If you don't speak perfect English, it's not a problem — there's always someone who can help you in Spanish." Recent patient review, March 2026.
Three dentists, two hygienists, a treatment coordinator and a front desk — every one of them named in patient reviews. The standard is the same across every chair: explain it, never rush it, treat you the way we'd want our own family treated.

"I had such a great experience at Lake Highlands Dental. From the moment I walked in the staff was very welcoming and kind. Dr. Ash is incredibly thorough and gentle. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions. The hygienist and assistants are just as wonderful. My cleaning was one of the most comfortable I've ever had."
"Awesome experience!! Had a cleaning yesterday with Misty. Met with Ana to go over the plan created by Dr. Ladak and started plan today. Everyone so personable and kind!! I feel hopeful and pleased with this group and highly recommend!!"
"I never thought going to the dentist could be such a wonderful experience. The entire administrative team, Dr. Ash, and all of the doctors are amazing. I've had several treatments done here (implants, extractions, and cleanings), and every experience has been excellent. What I really appreciate is that they care not only about the aesthetics of your smile, but also about the overall health of your teeth."
"Highly recommend! Front desk is so friendly. They are always on time and ready for me when I get there. Misty the technician is awesome and gentle with my cleaning. Also just love talking with her. And the dentist is great too! 10/10 recommend!"
