Candid Smiles in Cypress, TX

The Elyson Retail project at 22314 FM 529 in Cypress, Texas, is a 2,500 sq ft interior build-out that has completed its construction phase. The TDLR record identifies the business as Candid Smiles, which is located near existing dental and retail services in the area. The project closed the project file in May 2026, marking the end of the accessibility review process for this construction.
