Frequently Asked Questions

Is there something you want to know about our practice or dentistry in general? Below, we’ve answered some questions that are on a lot of our patients’ minds. If your question isn’t addressed here, don’t hesitate to call us!

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

No two dental practices are exactly alike; as such, finding the dentist in Slidell who’s right for you isn’t as simple as just picking the first option that appears when you perform a Google search. First, you should take the time to define exactly what it is you’re looking for in a new practice. This might include:

  • Accepting your dental insurance.
  • Being located near your home or workplace.
  • Offering specific kinds of services that your smile needs.

Once you have specific criteria in mind, you can search for a dental practice that meets them. Then you can check to see if the practice in question has any reviews on Google, Facebook, or Yelp. Seeing the feedback that a dentist has gotten will help give you an idea of what kind of experience you can expect if you pay them a visit.

How Much Does a Dental Checkup & Cleaning Cost in Slidell, LA?

The cost of a dental checkup and cleaning isn’t necessarily set in stone. The price is usually in the range of $200 to $350 in the United States, but the exact number can vary depending on various factors, such as the location of the practice and the patient’s dental health. If you call our office, we can explain how much you can expect to pay for a dental checkup and cleaning; we can also review your insurance plan and explain how you can use your benefits to save money on preventive dental care.

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

There are several ways to make dental care more affordable. Obviously, taking advantage of your dental insurance benefits is one option. However, if you don’t have dental insurance, you can sign up for our in-house dental plan to enjoy discounts on various dental services. On top of that, you can apply for CareCredit financing or a Cherry Payment Plan in order to break up the cost of your care into monthly installments that don’t put as much strain on your budget.

What Level of Education is Required to Be a Dentist?

Every dentist in the United States has earned a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). Obtaining either a DMD or a DDS requires getting a bachelor’s degree before enrolling in dental school. Generally, dental school involves four years of classroom and hands-on learning.

All dentists are expected to keep learning even after they graduate. In order to stay licensed, they must complete a set number of continuing education hours. The exact number varies depending on the state that the dentist practices in.
