Had a tooth chip two weeks ago and had it smoothed. Something happened and the sharp edge was back. (The) office was polite and kind, fitting me in a very busy afternoon. The staff are courteous and professional. Great experience, nice dentist, nice staff.”

What a GREAT experience. I have recently changed jobs and was looking for a replacement dentist in Houston that treated me as well as my dentist in NoLa did. I have found the best in town! My dental hygienist was Meleesa and she was wonderful during the clean. Prices seem great and I am very happy with their service and location!”

You Asked, We’ve Answered!

If you’d like to know more about your dental treatment options, simply give our team a call to receive your answers. Though this may be the quickest way to get the information you’re looking for, we also understand if you’re busy or prefer doing your research. Still, to help you be well-informed, our team has taken the time to compile some of the most commonly asked questions we get from our patients in Houston. Read on to learn a few important things to consider!

How Do I Find the Best Place to Get Dental Work Done?

To find the ideal place to receive your dental care, you’ll want to figure out what’s most important to you. This can be a combination of various factors, such as the hours of operation, geography, insurance/payment method, credentials, and tidiness. Furthermore, you’ll need to know what kind of treatments you require or that you’re interested in, such as restorative dentistry or cosmetic dentistry. Once you’ve found a practice that offers what you’re looking for, get a feel for their office. Pay attention to how they treat their patients and if they focus on personalized care. This will help you get a sense of the team you’ll be working with and if they’re a good fit for your needs.

How Much Does a Dental Checkup & Cleaning Cost in Houston?

The average cost of a dental checkup and cleaning across the United States is somewhere between $200 and $350. Of course, the amount can be influenced by certain factors, such as the location/geography and your current dental health. These visits should typically involve a review of your medical and dental history followed by a discussion of any concerns you might have about your smile. You’ll also undergo a thorough oral examination, X-rays, an oral cancer screening, and professional cleaning. If you have dental insurance, the expenses for these visits, as well as any out-of-pocket co-pays, will be negotiated by your insurance provider and dentist.

How Do I Get Emergency Dental Care?

You should always call our dental practice if you’re experiencing an urgent situation with your mouth. Someone from our team will be able to walk you through the next best steps, or our voicemail can direct you to another contact for immediate treatment. Of course, if your condition is more severe, such as a dislocated/broken jaw or excessive bleeding, then call 911 and visit your local ER instead. They can at least alleviate your symptoms beforehand so that you’re safe and stable. Afterward, you can visit our team for dental treatment. We offer same-day emergency appointments so that you can have a much smoother experience getting the care you need. Most dental emergencies are a result of underlying oral health problems that weren’t treated ahead of time, so be sure to keep good oral hygiene and visit your dentist every six months to reduce your risk of these situations.

What Do You Do If You Can’t Afford a Dentist?

Remember, dentistry is all about prevention, so taking care of your smile every day and scheduling dental checkups and cleanings biannually can save you more money in the long run. If you need assistance paying for your treatment, then you might consider getting a dental insurance plan for some coverage. You can also look into alternative financing options, such as CareCredit, so you can lower your monthly payments and get the treatments you need without breaking the bank!
