Dentist – Natick, MA

How much does a dental check-up and cleaning cost in Natick?

Cost of dental care can largely depend on a few specific factors, including the location of the dental office and the current oral health of the person seeking care. On average, a dental checkup and teeth cleaning can be worth anywhere between $200 and $350. However, if you have dental insurance, the fees for these preventive treatments can be negotiated by the dental insurance company with our dental office. Prior to completing a checkup and/or cleaning, we’ll go over your health history and address any specific concerns you have upfront.

How can I make a same-day appointment with a dentist?

While you can send an email directly to our dental office, it’s not the fastest solution for scheduling a same-day appointment. For example, it’s always better to make a direct phone call instead as it not only ensures you get heard sooner, but allows a team member to hear your concerns in more detail. This enables them to better help you and your situation, especially if it’s a dental emergency. It’s our goal to address your oral health concerns as soon as they appear, so don’t be afraid to call to ensure you lock in an appointment when you need one!

How do I find the best place to get dental work done?

When searching for a new dentist, you’re going to want to confirm your specific oral health needs upfront. While everyone should complete routine checkups to stay proactive against dental disease, it’s also worth considering what other services you may be interested in. This could include restorative services to invigorate your oral health or cosmetic services to help you feel confident about showing off your smile. How you plan to finance your care as well as the location of the dental office and the expertise of the dentists can also play a major role. Our dental office is happy to be home to three exceptionally talented dentists who can perform a wide variety of treatments under one roof.

What is the best way to find a dentist who does dental implants?

When you want to replace missing teeth, our dental office wholeheartedly recommends dental implants thanks to their versatility, functionality, and aesthetics. However, you should only choose to receive care from dentists who have the expertise to complete this treatment. Thanks to the expertise of our dentists, we can keep the whole process in-house for added convenience. For example, Dr. Buckley holds professional training focusing on periodontology, which plays a significant role in her ability to place dental implants effectively. We’ll make sure that your future restoration is also designed with your exact specifications in mind.

What do you do if you can't afford a dentist?

At the end of the day, dentistry is about prevention. Treatments designed to catch problems before they arise are generally more affordable than restorative or emergency services, so it’s important to complete these procedures regularly to save money in the long-term. Dental insurance can provide coverage for these services, but we understand that not all patients make use of a dental plan. You can also take advantage of CareCredit to pay for care in monthly installments, or check with your healthcare provider to see if you qualify for Medicaid or Medicare dental benefits.
