QUESTIONS

Q. My gums bleed after I brush. Is this something to be concerned about?

A. Bleeding gums may indicate gingivitis and possibly advanced gum disease. Our hygienist can teach you effective flossing and brushing techniques, which may correct the problem, but you do need to make an appointment for a thorough evaluation. Gum disease can lead to serious oral health complications and should never be ignored. Visit our patient library to read more about gum disease.

Q. How long will my whitening treatment last?

A. Drinking dark beverages, smoking, or consuming alcohol can change the effects of your whitening. Every patient's unique lifestyle and makeup contributes to the longevity of teeth whitening. However, if you use home whitening for touch-up as needed, your teeth whitening will withstand the years.

Ask us about our in office whitening.


Q. Do you accept referrals?

A. We love to see patient referrals! We want each of our patients to leave our office fully satisfied that they have received the best clinical and customer care possible. If you feel comfortable referring your friends or family to us, then we've done our job. Thank you for your confidence.


Q. What payment methods do you accept, and what are my financing options?

A. Paying for dental work should not be stressful! We offer hassle-free, convenient payment methods, including check, cash, or credit cards. We also accept third-party afinancing through CareCredit. Please call our office for more details.

Q. I really do not like visiting the dentist, is there anything you can do to help me relax?

A. We provide nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, and oral conscious sedation to ease your anxiety. We also offer several in-office amenities to make you feel comfortable. Memory foam chairs, heated neck pillows, soothing music, and aromatherapy mist create a relaxing environment. For the extremely anxious patient, or for lengthy procedures, we work with an anesthesiologist to provide for your total relaxation.
