How Do I Get Emergency Dental Care?

If you’re suffering from dental pain or if your teeth have been damaged in some way, you are unlikely to get the care you need at the emergency room. The best way to deal with these types of dental issues is to call our office to schedule an emergency appointment, which we will often be able to do on the same day that you reach out to us. When you come to us for emergency dental care, we will address any immediate pain you might be suffering from and carefully examine your mouth to figure out the best way to treat the underlying problem.

Note that the emergency room is still your best bet if your life is in danger. Please call 911 if you have a broken jaw, unstoppable oral bleeding, or swelling that interferes with breathing or swallowing.

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

When comparing dental practices in your area, you should first ask yourself what you’re looking for. Most people want a dentist who:

• Will take their dental insurance.
• Has an office located nearby.
• Has a variety of services under one roof.

Writing down everything you want your new dentist to have can help you create a more concrete idea of what you’re looking for, making it easier to recognize when a dental practice is a good fit for you. Of course, you don’t have to go strictly by what’s on the dentist’s website; you can also see what other people think of them by reading reviews on Google and Yelp.

How Much Does a Dental Checkup & Cleaning Cost in Arlington, TX?

Obviously, the answer to this question won’t be exactly the same for everyone since the cost can vary depending on which dental practice you go to. On top of that, your dental health can also be a factor in determining how much you end up paying. That said, it is worth noting that the average cost for a dental checkup and cleaning in the United States is in the range of $200 to $350. Also, dental insurance can help lower the amount you pay out of pocket, although it’s important to remember that the fee will be negotiated by your insurance company.

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

There are many ways that we can make paying for dental care easier for our patients. First of all, we are in-network with most major PPO plans, and we always take the time to help our patients figure out the best way to maximize their benefits. We also provide an in-office membership plan, which offers benefits that are similar to dental insurance but without the hassle of yearly maximums and other insurance-related pitfalls. Finally, we can help our patients apply for CareCredit so that they can pay for their care in smaller installments.
