Dr. Pratik Patel
DDS, General Dentist
Dr. Pratik Patel, DDS, is a General Dentist at Affordable Dentures & Implants, Lake Charles, LA. Known for a warm and reassuring approach, he takes the time to listen to each patient's concerns and works to put even the most anxious visitors at ease. His clinical focus is implant dentistry, and he loves being able to completely redesign and restore a patient's smile.
Dr. Patel graduated from the University of Texas School of Dentistry at Houston in 2019 and has built on that foundation with advanced implant training, including coursework through Implant Pathway, Locator Fixed, and a Zest Mastership course. He has successfully placed hundreds of implants and has grown increasingly comfortable with more challenging cases, including grafting infected sockets to regenerate bone so that implants can be placed with confidence.
Dr. Patel joined Affordable Dentures & Implants in 2023, drawn by the opportunity to focus on surgical dentistry and implants. He was inspired to become a dentist by the chance to use his hands to help people and design their smiles, and he finds it especially rewarding when a patient becomes emotional seeing a new smile for the first time. Outside the office, he loves spending time with family, exploring the outdoors, hiking, and enjoying a good book or movie.
Dr. Patel and the team at Affordable Dentures & Implants in Lake Charles, LA are dedicated to helping every patient leave with dentures and implants that fit well, function properly, and look natural. Dr. Patel is currently accepting new patients. Schedule an appointment today to start your journey toward a healthier, more confident smile.


Dr. Neima Sobhi
DDS, General Dentist
Dr. Neima Sobhi, DDS, is a General Dentist at Affordable Dentures & Implants, Austin-Manor, TX. The belief that everyone deserves a healthy, confident smile is what drew Dr. Sobhi to this work, and it shapes every appointment: careful surgical technique, clear explanations, and an unhurried chairside manner. Serving patients in the surrounding community who might not otherwise have access to care like this makes the work personal, not just professional.
Dr. Sobhi earned a DDS from Texas A&M College of Dentistry in 2025 and is an Implant Pathway Fellow. That fellowship has been followed by a series of Implant Pathway training programs covering surgical implant placement and overdenture treatment, building a practical, current skill set for restoring function to patients who have lived with missing or failing teeth.
Clinically, Dr. Sobhi focuses on single tooth implants, implant bridges, and overdentures, and has performed thousands of extractions. That surgical volume translates directly into steadier, more comfortable treatment for patients. Watching someone go from hiding a smile to laughing freely again is the part of the job that never gets old.
A strong clinical team makes that possible, and Dr. Sobhi credits a skilled, dependable staff and a genuine sense of shared purpose for the experience patients have at the practice. Outside the office, Dr. Sobhi spends free time with family and on the volleyball court, and roots for the Dallas Cowboys.
