At Grand Family Dentistry, every patient who walks through our doors receives the top-notch dental care they deserve. Comfort and quality care are the foundations of our practice. It’s important that we answer your questions so you have a better understanding of what to expect when you visit our offices and the importance of making an appointment with a dentist.
How Often Should I Get a Dental Cleaning?
In general, we recommend that most individuals get a dental cleaning every six months to ensure that any plaque or bacteria developing in your gums is removed. Depending on the state of your oral health, this timeline may vary, especially for those with cavities or tooth decay who may need more frequent cleanings.
What Happens During a Dental Checkup?
At Grand Family Dentistry, a dental checkup typically starts with a visual exam. If necessary, other types of exams, such as X-rays, may be conducted. Your dentist and dental hygienist will discuss the state of your oral health and potential treatments for any detected issues. Routine cleaning may also be performed during the checkup.
Do I Need Dental Insurance?
While using dental insurance can help reduce the costs of treatment, we offer various payment options. Discuss your preferred payment method or insurance details when booking your appointment to streamline any necessary paperwork.
Do You Offer Pediatric Dentistry Services?
Yes. Grand Family Dentistry provides high quality, compassionate pediatric dentistry for children of all ages as part of our family practice.
Do You Handle Dental Emergencies?
Yes, we do. If you have a dental emergency, contact us immediately, and our staff will assist you with the necessary steps based on the emergency’s nature.
What Is the Difference Between a Dentist and An Orthodontist?
A dentist provides general dental care, while an orthodontist specializes in correcting misaligned teeth. We offer both services at Grand Family Dentistry and can discuss the best options for your specific needs.
Many people are nervous about visiting the dentist, which is why we strive to make your visit as comfortable as possible. Our procedures are designed to be minimally invasive to preserve the natural structure of your teeth. We also offer a wide variety of treatment options all under one roof, making our practice super convenient for all your dental needs.
