Frequently Asked Questions – Answered!
Are you looking for a dentist in the Denison area? You likely have some unanswered questions, so we’re here to help! Here are the answers to some of the common questions we are asked at our practice. If you don’t see the information that you’re looking for below, don’t worry. Give us a call and we’d be happy to address your questions and concerns.
How do I find the best place to get dental work done?
The first step is to figure out what exactly you are looking for and what’s important to you. For many, it is a combination of being in-network with and/or accepting insurance plans, credentials, and location. In addition, you should think about the different services you are interested in. Are you just looking for cleanings and checkups? Do you want to straighten your smile with orthodontic treatment? You should see a dentist who offers these services. Lastly, you should get a feel for the practice. You can do this by checking out online reviews and reading the doctor and staff bios on their website. This way, you can choose a dentist who meets your criteria.
How much does a dental check-up & cleaning cost in Denison?
The cost of cleanings and checkups can vary on various factors, including geography. Your checkup and cleaning should begin with going over your health history and discussing any concerns that you have. It should also include a thorough exam, professional cleaning, X-rays, and oral cancer screening. The average cost in markets throughout the United States is between $200 and $350. If you have dental insurance, this visit is likely partially or completely covered by your plan.
How can I make a same-day appointment with a dentist?
It is always best to do this by calling us directly. This way, you can talk to a member of our team to explain what is going on. We will be able to give you further instructions and schedule to see you as soon as possible. The goal of a same-day appointment is usually to figure out what the root of the problem is, eliminate any pain you are experiencing, and put together a plan to restore the health of your smile. Sometimes, more advanced treatment can be completed during a same-day appointment.
What level of education is required to be a dentist?
All dentists in the United States must have received either a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Science (DDS) from one of the 67 accredited dental schools in the country. To get into dental school, you need to have a bachelor’s degree. Dental school is three years with a combination of classroom and hands-on learning. In addition to that, all dentists must complete a certain number of continuing education hours to keep their license.
