Convenient Access from Mansfield
Mansfield sits right next to Arlington, and from Mansfield City Hall our office is about 9 minutes away. That makes Impact Dentistry an easy pick for anyone who wants a dentist in Mansfield, TX without a long haul across the Metroplex. We practice in south Arlington at 7416 S Cooper St, roughly two miles north of US 287. Appointments start at 8 AM, Monday through Thursday, and most of the trip is one highway followed by one straight road.
From City Hall at 1200 E. Broad St., head east on E Broad St and turn onto US 287 north. Stay on the freeway toward Arlington, then exit for FM 157 (Highway 157 North), which becomes S Cooper St. Keep going north past the W Turner Warnell Rd intersection, and you will find the office before you reach W Harris Rd. The whole drive covers 5.4 miles in about 9 minutes, with no tolls.
Open the route on Google Maps before your first visit. If relatives live a little farther east, our pages for Southwind and Webb cover the southeast Arlington side of the drive.
Why Mansfield Families Make the Short Trip North
Mansfield started around 1856, when Ralph Sandiford Man and Julian Feild built a grist mill on Walnut Creek. The settlement took a name that joined the two founders' surnames, and it was incorporated in 1890. Today it is a city of more than 72,000 people, mostly in Tarrant County with small parts in Johnson and Ellis counties, and it sits right next to Arlington along SH 360 and US 287.
It is very much a family city, and that shows in places like Katherine Rose Memorial Park, which reopened in December 2025 with a much larger, inclusive playground. Families also spend time on the granite trails and ponds of Elmer W. Oliver Nature Park, and catch concerts at the Farr Best Theater, a local venue since 1917. A busy household like that needs a dental office that keeps care simple.
That is what we aim for. Oral surgery, dental implants and clear aligners all happen in our own office, so most patients never need an outside referral. Each new patient also receives iTero intraoral scanning and CBCT imaging at the first visit, which gives Dr. Lim a complete view of teeth, roots and bone before anything is planned.
Your first appointment follows a clear order. The hygienist takes x-rays, intraoral photos and gum charting, and then Dr. Lim completes the exam and talks through what he sees. You leave with a custom treatment plan that spells out the financial details, so nothing comes as a surprise later.
Small comforts help, too. Parents can settle in with a Fiji water or a Starbucks coffee, and a cozy blanket is on hand for anyone who feels chilly in the chair. Our team can also hold appointments in English, Spanish, Korean or Vietnamese.
Raising Healthy Smiles in a Growing Mansfield
Nearly half of Mansfield households include children under 18, so school calendars shape a lot of dental planning here. Mansfield ISD serves Mansfield and also reaches into south Arlington, where its Summit High School sits on W Turner Warnell Rd, the road just south of our office.
Routine visits do the heavy lifting for kids. A professional cleaning removes hardened buildup that brushing misses, and our dental hygiene visits pair that cleaning with fluoride and a careful look at every surface. Near-infrared cavity detection helps us spot early decay while it is still a small repair.
Teens bring their own questions, from crooked teeth to wisdom teeth to a chipped front tooth after practice. Because those needs are handled under one roof, a Mansfield family can keep the same dental home from a child's first cleaning through the high school years. Booking an 8 AM slot also means less time away from class.
Parents deserve the same attention. Between work and carpools, adult checkups are often the first thing to slip, and a small crack can quietly grow into a bigger repair. Dr. Lim places dental implants in the office with the aid of PRF treatment, planning each case from the CBCT scan taken at your first visit. Booking your own cleaning on the same morning as the kids keeps the whole family on track.
Choosing a Dentist in Mansfield, TX: Care That Fits Family Life
Preventive Dentistry
Exams, cleanings, x-rays and oral cancer screenings keep small problems small. Parents can ask about booking siblings together to cover the family in one morning. Members of our Wellness Plan have these visits covered.
3M™ Clear Aligners
Dr. Lim straightens teeth with clear aligners right in the office, starting from a digital iTero scan instead of goopy impression trays. Dr. Lim can tell you at a consultation whether aligners suit your smile. The trays are clear, so they stay discreet at school and at work.
Emergency Dentistry
A toothache or a broken tooth rarely waits for a convenient week. Impact Dentistry offers same-day and emergency treatment, and new patients can start with a $49 emergency exam and x-ray.
Restorative Dentistry
Fillings, crowns and other repairs rebuild teeth that decay or a fall has damaged. Dr. Lim explains each option and its cost before any work begins.
Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation and IV sedation are all available. Anxious teens and adults can get needed care done without dreading the chair. Dr. Lim will help you choose the level that suits the procedure.
Meet Dr. Daniel Lim
Dr. Daniel Lim named the practice Impact Dentistry because he wants to make a positive impact on every patient and on the wider community. He enjoys how dentistry blends engineering, healthcare and art, and that shows in the way he plans a crown or an aligner case. Parents meet him at the exam, where he walks through the findings before a plan is set.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Impact Dentistry from Mansfield, and how do I get there?
Impact Dentistry is 5.4 miles from Mansfield City Hall, roughly a 9-minute drive. Take E Broad St east to US 287 north, then exit onto FM 157 and follow it as it becomes S Cooper St. Anyone wanting a dentist in Mansfield, TX close to home will find us at 7416 S Cooper St, between W Turner Warnell Rd and W Harris Rd.
Can my kids join your Wellness Plan if we don't have dental insurance?
Yes. The child membership costs $349 a year or $33 a month and includes preventive exams, cleanings, fluoride, oral cancer screenings, emergency exams and all x-rays as needed. Members also receive 15% off major treatments. Parents can add the adult plan, at $399 a year or $37 a month, to cover their own visits.
What can my kids do at home to prevent cavities between checkups?
Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and flossing once a day does most of the work. Limiting sugary drinks and sticky snacks between meals helps too, since frequent sugar feeds the bacteria that cause decay. At checkups, our team adds a professional cleaning and fluoride, and near-infrared cavity detection helps us catch soft spots early.
How much time should I allow for an 8 AM visit during the morning rush?
Plan on more than the usual 9 minutes. US 287 and S Cooper St both slow down at rush hour, so build a cushion into your departure time and you can arrive and check in calmly. If traffic is worse than expected, a quick call lets the front desk know you are on the way.
Is your office open on Fridays?
No. Impact Dentistry sees patients Monday through Thursday, from 8 AM to 5 PM, and the office is closed on Fridays. For an urgent problem earlier in the week, the team is often able to see emergency patients the same day as their call. New patients can request an appointment online at any time.
