As a result, we are happy to welcome dental insurance and will do our part to maximize your coverage. If you’re uninsured, don’t worry – we also happily accept flexible financing through CareCredit.

Frequently Asked Questions

We’re always happy to answer any questions you may have about dentistry and oral health. The following FAQs cover a few of the topics that our patients often wonder about.

How Can I Make a Same-Day Appointment with a Dentist?

Some dental issues are urgent enough to warrant an appointment on the same day that they occur. The sooner you get to our office for a same-day appointment, the sooner we can perform a thorough examination of your mouth and determine the best way to treat the underlying cause of your dental emergency.

To set up a same-day appointment, all you have to do is call our office. Sending a request via email or through our website is not recommended in urgent situations since it won’t let you speak to a team member right away. By contacting us over the phone, you give us the chance to respond immediately and ask important questions about the nature of your dental issue. Rest assured that we’ll do everything we can to ensure that your dental emergency is resolved as quickly as possible.

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

Before you begin your search, you should define what you’re looking for. Make a list of all the traits you want your new dental practice to have, which might include:

It’ll be much easier to select a dental practice if you search for those that have the traits you’re looking for. Alternatively, if there’s a particular practice that you’re interested in, you can look up the reviews they’ve gotten on Google, Facebook, Yelp, and Healthgrades.

How Much Does It Cost to Get a Tooth Pulled Without Insurance?

The price of a tooth extraction can vary, with the average cost of the procedure often falling between $150 and $400 in the United States. Our team can give you a reliable estimate of what the cost of your own tooth extraction will look like once we’ve gathered more information about your specific situation, such as the number of teeth that need to be taken out and how complex the procedure is expected to be.

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

It’s important to be aware of the tools available for making the cost of dental care more manageable. Naturally, this includes your dental insurance plan if you have one; our team is more than happy to file claims for a wide variety of insurance providers. Alternatively, you can also apply for CareCredit financing. Thanks to the various low-to-no-interest payment plans that CareCredit offers, you won’t have to worry about covering the full cost of your care all at once.
