Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I visit the dentist?
It’s recommended to visit the dentist every six months for a routine cleaning and exam. However, if you have specific oral health concerns, more frequent visits may be necessary.
Do you offer options for patients with dental anxiety?
Yes, we provide a variety of options, including gentle techniques, sedation dentistry, and a calming environment, to help patients feel comfortable and relaxed during their visit.
What can I do to improve my oral health at home?
Brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and limiting sugary foods are key. Using fluoride toothpaste and a mouthwash can also enhance your oral hygiene between visits.
Do you accept my insurance?
We accept most major dental insurance plans and can help you understand your coverage. If you don’t have insurance, we also offer flexible payment options to fit your budget.
What does sensory-friendly mean?
A sensory-friendly environment is designed to accommodate patients with sensory sensitivities, including those with autism, ADHD, or anxiety. At our practice, this means minimizing bright lights, loud sounds, and overwhelming stimuli to create a calming experience. Our team is trained to be patient, understanding, and flexible to meet the unique needs of every individual, ensuring a positive dental visit for everyone.
What is the role of the massage therapist?
Our in-house massage therapist helps transform your visit into a relaxing dental spa experience. Whether you’re here for dental care or simply want to enjoy a soothing massage, our therapist is available to provide treatments that relieve tension and promote overall well-being. You can schedule a massage anytime—not just during a dental appointment. This unique offering allows patients to unwind, reduce stress, and enjoy a holistic approach to health, combining oral care with relaxation.
