WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO FIND A COSMETIC DENTIST?
Since there is no single way to designate a dentist as a “cosmetic” dentist, it’s important to look for certain attributes they maintain to see if they can meet your needs. For example, Dr. Wade has years of extensive cosmetic dental training, while Dr. Danna holds a post-graduate degree from the Academy of General Dentistry in cosmetics and holds Fellowship status within the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentists. This makes them uniquely equipped to perform a wide variety of dental enhancements, no matter how simple or complex your cosmetic concerns might be.
HOW CAN I FIND A FEMALE DENTIST?
In the United States, roughly one-third of working dentists are female. Data shows that more than 50% of all current dental school students are female as well. While searching “female dentist near me” online can help you get the process started, Stonebriar Smile Design is proud to have not one, but three dentists that are female. Feel free to read their detailed bios for yourself to learn more about their expertise. There, you can learn about their professional background and their stories to joining the practice!
HOW MUCH DOES A DENTAL CHECK-UP & CLEANING COST IN FRISCO?
Costs for preventive services like checkups and cleanings will largely vary depending on a few key factors. For example, the geographical location (i.e. cities vs. rural areas) as well as your current oral health can influence the final price. During a checkup, our dentists go over patient health history and discuss any concerns they may have. Then, we’ll perform an exam, cleaning, X-ray, and oral cancer screening. On average, dental checkups fall between $200 and $350. While we are happy to help you use dental insurance, we will always provide recommendations based on what is best for your health.
HOW DO I GET EMERGENCY DENTAL CARE?
You’ll want to start by calling our practice to get an appointment scheduled. When you do, a team member can get your visit set up and provide guidance on managing your symptoms. We’ll work hard to get you scheduled to visit the same-day you call. Most hospital ER’s are not equipped to handle dental emergencies, which is why it’s best to call our office directly in most cases instead. However, life-threatening emergencies should trigger a call to 911 immediately. Keep in mind that dental emergencies are typically an indication of a larger problem that needs addressing. Always stay on top of routine checkups so our team has an opportunity to catch problems early.
