About Colby Crabtree, DDS
With a father, grandfather, and great-grandfather to look up to as dentists it’s not surprising that Dr. Colby Crabtree has continued the family legacy in the field of dentistry. He earned his bachelor’s degree in nutritional science from Brigham Young University before earning his doctor of dental surgery degree (DDS) from his father’s alma mater—the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Dr. Crabtree is a member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, the Greater Houston Dental Society, the Academy of General Dentistry, the Texas Academy of General Dentistry, and the Houston Academy of General Dentistry. Continuing education is a priority in his professional career and he is currently progressing toward earning a Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD). During a two-year service mission Dr. Crabtree became fluent in the Spanish language, a skill that enables him to provide a unique level of care to patients who prefer to converse in Spanish. Regardless of language preference every patient can expect Dr. Crabtree to listen attentively and communicate with clarity and kindness. His pleasant manner, sense of humor, and knowledge of the latest dental techniques and procedures contribute to his patients feeling comfortable under his care. In his spare time Dr. Crabtree loves being outdoors and is particularly passionate about exploring new landscapes and visiting national parks with his wife, Talyn. His other hobbies include playing basketball, experimenting with photography and videography, and cheering for all teams hailing from Houston.
