FAQ

We accept a wide range of dental insurance plans and are in-network with many major providers. Because coverage varies, we encourage you to call our office so our team can confirm your specific benefits and help you understand what’s covered.

Becoming a patient is easy—simply call or request an appointment online. At your first visit, please bring your ID, insurance card, and any recent dental records or X-rays. Our friendly staff will take care of the rest.

A typical visit includes a full exam, gentle cleaning, and any necessary X-rays. Your dentist will check for cavities, gum issues, and signs of oral health concerns while keeping your comfort a top priority.

Most patients benefit from cleanings and exams every six months. However, if you have gum disease or other concerns, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits.

Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to help prevent cavities. They’re especially helpful for children, but adults can benefit too if they’re prone to decay.

We offer scaling and root planing, antimicrobial therapy, and ongoing maintenance to treat and manage gum disease. Early treatment is essential for preventing tooth loss and protecting your overall health.

A root canal is needed when the inner pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed. During treatment, we remove the damaged tissue, clean the canal, and seal it to prevent reinfection. The procedure relieves pain and saves your natural tooth.

Most patients recover from a simple extraction within a few days. We’ll provide clear aftercare instructions, including how to manage discomfort, prevent dry socket, and promote healing.

Yes. We provide same-day emergency appointments for severe pain, broken teeth, swelling, or trauma. If you’re unsure whether it’s an emergency, call us—our team will help determine the best next step.

Oral cancer screening is a quick, painless part of your exam where we check your mouth, tongue, and throat for abnormal tissue or lesions. We recommend a screening at least once a year as part of your preventive care.

Night guards protect your teeth from grinding or clenching during sleep. If you experience jaw pain, headaches, or worn enamel, your dentist may recommend a custom night guard.

Yes. We make custom-fit sports mouthguards that offer better protection and comfort than store-bought versions. They’re ideal for athletes of all ages involved in contact sports.

Both treatments use dental implants to secure a full arch of teeth. The main difference is the number of implants—four for All-on-4 and six for All-on-6. Your dentist will recommend the right option based on bone density and bite needs.

Implants are the most natural, durable option for replacing missing teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, they fuse with your jawbone, preventing bone loss and offering long-term stability and comfort.

Implant restoration involves placing an artificial tooth (crown, bridge, or denture) over the implant post once it has fused with the bone. The process typically takes several months from start to finish, depending on healing time.

We offer professional teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding to enhance your smile’s appearance. These treatments can brighten, reshape, and perfect your smile for a more confident look.

ZOOM! Whitening is an in-office treatment that can brighten your teeth several shades in just one visit. Results can last a year or longer with good oral hygiene and avoiding stain-causing foods or drinks.

Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually shift your teeth into place. They’re nearly invisible, comfortable, and allow you to eat and brush without the restrictions of metal braces.

Yes. Digital impressions eliminate the need for messy molds, while digital X-rays provide detailed images with lower radiation exposure. Both make your visits faster, cleaner, and more comfortable.

CBCT is a 3D imaging technology that gives us a detailed view of your teeth, jaw, and bone structure. We use it for precise diagnosis and planning, especially for implant placement and oral surgery.

Yes. Using CEREC® technology, we can design, mill, and place a custom ceramic crown in a single visit—no temporary crowns or second appointments needed.

Full mouth reconstruction combines restorative and cosmetic treatments such as crowns, implants, veneers, and bridges to rebuild your smile’s health, function, and appearance. Each plan is customized to your needs.

We use gentle techniques, modern anesthetics, and comfort-focused options like sedation dentistry to ensure a calm experience. Our staff is trained to help even the most anxious patients feel at ease.

Some swelling, tenderness, and mild discomfort are normal for the first few days. We’ll provide clear instructions and check in to ensure proper healing. Most patients return to normal routines within a week.

We follow strict infection-control standards set by the CDC and ADA. All tools are sterilized after each use, and our operatories are disinfected thoroughly between patients to ensure a safe, clean environment.
