Feel free to review the questions and answers listed below and call us to inquire further. Dr. Desai is ready to deliver honest and insightful information so that you can feel confident in your decision to choose us as your new dental home.
How often will I be expected to visit the dentist?
You should expect to visit Dr. Desai every six months (or twice each year) for general dental checkups and teeth cleanings. These visits serve as the first line of defense against tooth decay, cavities, gum disease, damage, and oral cancer. By maintaining these visits for you and your family, you reduce your risk of serious oral health issues and instead, give your pearly whites and gums a better chance of remaining healthy year-round.
I’m experiencing a dental emergency. What should I do?
The first step when faced with a dental emergency is to call our dental office. A member of our team will survey the severity of the situation while on the phone with you and work to get you in right away. You are also welcome to come in without an appointment if you are experiencing a dental emergency. We’ll help to get you out of pain as quickly as possible as well as go over a proposed treatment plan so that we can address the problem and get you back to your normal routine.
If I’m missing a tooth, will I need a referral for a dental implant specialist?
While we do provide dentures and dental bridges to patients who are suffering from tooth loss, we are pleased to work with the best implant dentists in the area if you desire permanent prosthetics. Dr. Desai will connect you with a trusted expert who can place your implant posts and ensure optimal recovery. When ready, our team will be happy to secure your new customized restoration to your dental implants so that you can begin to enjoy your new smile.
Will my veneers look natural?
Choosing a cosmetic dentist who is highly skilled in placing veneers is the most important aspect of this type of treatment. You want your results to look natural, which is why Dr. Desai is a dentist you can trust. With clear attention to detail and artistic vision, she will make sure that your veneers not only look natural but feel comfortable as well.
Will you see my child for a dental appointment?
Yes! We welcome children of all ages. Our dental team is here to monitor, improve, and maintain young smiles no matter if they are infants, children, or teenagers. We’ll remain alongside your little one from the moment their first tooth erupts to the time they say goodbye to their braces. It is our goal and mission to give their smiles the best chance to thrive from infancy to adulthood.
Are you in-network with my dental insurance?
You’ll be pleased to learn that we are in-network with most PPO dental insurance plans. This should not only make you feel more at ease knowing that you’ll pay the lowest price for treatment but that we care about keeping our treatments affordable and budget-friendly. If you’re unsure whether we will take your insurance, please don’t hesitate to call us!
