How can I lose this gap?
Bonding, porcelain veneers, or orthodontics is the most common way of dealing with gaps between the teeth. We will walk you through all the options, so as to better decide the right one for your situation.

How much pain am I going to have after a root canal?
If you follow our instructions—which include not using the tooth to chew for a week following the procedure—you should experience no pain whatsoever!

Am I a candidate for Invisalign?
If you have “crooked” teeth, then you’re a candidate for Invisalign orthodontics, regardless of age! No wires, brackets, or bands are used with Invisalign… which also means no metal to irritate your mouth. Sound interesting? Contact us for more information!

Should I replace my silver fillings?
Over time, silver fillings can cause fractures in tooth structure due to expansion and contraction of the metal when hot or cold foods are consumed. What’s more, the fillings contain mercury—a heavy metal toxin—which can be unpleasant, aesthetically speaking and otherwise. Come talk to us about alternatives!

How long will whitening last?
When a whitening procedure is done in our offices (as opposed to self-applied, at home), you can expect the results to last five years or longer!

What payment options do you provide?
We want quality dentistry to be affordable to everyone! In order to make that happen, we request all patients pay for the services at the time they receive them. Cash, check, and all major credit cards are accepted, with a 5% discount available to those who pay in cash. Any financing needs for our office are handled externally through CareCredit, Inc.
Insurance
Please remember that insurance is considered a method of reimbursing the patient for fees paid to the doctor, and is not a substitute for payment. Insurance is a contract between the insurance company and the patient, not the dentist. The patient is responsible for all charges for dental care. Our computer conveniently prints out a standard ADA Insurance Claim Form so that our patients need only provide information once and any time in the future when there are changes.
For your information, we are currently a provider for MetLife Insurance.
