Have a question for us? Then you’ve come to the right place! Below, you’ll find answers to some of the most common questions we receive every day. If you happen to have a question that we haven’t answered here, be sure to pick up the phone and ask us! We’re always happy to talk to you and make sure you completely understand your dental care.
How often should I visit the dentist?
The answer to this really depends on your individual needs, but for most people, our doctors would recommend visiting the dentist at least twice a year for checkups and cleanings. These services will enable our team to catch any problems you might have early, remove harmful buildup on your teeth, and stop many dental problems before they even begin!
Does your practice accept children?
Yes! We love treating entire families under one roof, and that includes their youngest members! We recommend bringing your child in for regular appointments starting around age three. We’ll ensure they have nice, relaxing appointments while we safeguard their teeth.
How should I replace my missing teeth?
This answer is different for every patient, and it will depend largely on your dental health, overall health, how many teeth you need replaced, and your budget. We have numerous restorations that are both strong and natural-looking, including dental bridges, dentures, and dental implants that can replace any number of missing teeth. Which one is right for you? Come and see us, and we’ll let you know after a brief consultation!
What is the best way to whiten my smile?
While there is an endless variety of whitening products available on store shelves today, by far, the most consistent and reliable way to dramatically whiten your teeth is with a professional treatment. We can custom-make you your own whitening kit that will have a bleaching gel much stronger than anything you can buy on your own. With it, you can make your smile up to eight shades whiter while you just sit and relax at home!
Do you accept dental emergencies?
Yes we do! Whether you are dealing with a knocked out tooth, severe dental pain, or a broken crown, we’re ready and able to help. We try to see emergency patients the same day that they call in, so if you ever need urgent dental care, please don’t hesitate to give us a call!
Do you accept dental insurance?
Yes, and we are in-network providers for many major dental insurance plans. We work with dental insurance companies all the time, so we’ll make the process of maximizing your benefits as smooth and easy as possible. To learn how we can use your particular plan, contact us today.
Do you have any financing options?
Yes! Our patients can finance their care with a low-to-no interest plan from CareCredit. They have plans that can work with any budget, and to explore your options.
