There are two options that may cover your situation. If you received deferred adjudication probation and completed it successfully, you can file a motion for nondisclosure of criminal record with the sentencing court.

If you did not receive deferred, you can file for a pardon from the governor. If you are pardoned, you can file a petition for expunction with the District Court in the county where you were sentenced.
