What is basic coverage vs major coverage?
Basic treatment for insurance companies is typically checkups, x-rays, cleanings, fluoride, fillings, extractions, and root canals. Major coverage is for items such as crowns, dentures, bridges, and implants.
What if I can’t make it to my appointment?
If you cannot make an appointment (except in the case of an emergency), we request that you call us to reschedule at least 48 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment time. These appointment times are very valuable to other patients. When we make an appointment with you, it’s a promise on our part to see you on time and to set up all the necessary materials. Do your best to keep us in the loop!
What is the dentist’s approach to patient care?
Ideally, patients should seek a dentist who opts for a minimally invasive approach and recommends preventive procedures to prevent future issues. A conservative dentist will only suggest extensive dental work when simpler options will not be effective. Good oral health involves preventing dental issues.
