Request an AppointmentFrequently Asked Questions
One of the ways we help our patients is by teaching them more about dentistry. This can mean explaining our services, or it can simply involve going over the finer points of dental care. If you give our office a call or schedule an appointment with our team, we’ll be happy to help you find any answers you’ve been looking for! But before you reach out to us, check the helpful information provided in the FAQs below.
How Can I Make a Same-Day Appointment with a Dentist?
Regular dental checkups and cleanings are usually scheduled weeks or months in advance, but when there’s an emergency, you’ll want to be seen on the same day whenever possible. The best way to get a same-day appointment is to call; your request may not be seen in time if it’s sent via email or through the practice’s website. Additionally, calling allows you to speak to a team member much sooner so that they can give you helpful first-aid advice. When you call Rockville Family Dentistry for emergency care, we’ll make any arrangements we can to ensure that you aren’t left waiting too long for an appointment.
How Much Does It Cost to Get a Tooth Pulled Without Insurance?
Dental practices across the country will charge different rates for tooth extraction. Sometimes the price is around $150 and in other cases it could be approximately $400. Removing molars usually costs more due to the relative difficulty of the procedure. Also, tooth extractions can either be simple or surgical, and generally speaking, surgical procedures come at a higher price. Our team will explain how much your tooth extraction is likely to cost and review your payment options with you.
What Is the Best Way to Find a Dentist Who Does Dental Implants?
Some dental practices take a team approach to dental implants where the patient is referred to a local specialist (such as a periodontist or oral surgeon) to have their dental implants placed. However, some dentists are capable of performing the procedure themselves, which can save you a lot of time and hassle. If you want to see how qualified a dentist is when it comes to dental implant placement, check their online biography on their website. You can often tell a lot about them by what organizations they belong to. For example, Dr. Modarres is a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.
What Level of Education Is Required to Be a Dentist?
An individual needs to have a Doctor of Dental Medicine or a Doctor of Dental Surgery to be recognized as a dentist in the United States. To earn one of these degrees, they must enroll in one of the 67 accredited dental schools in the country, which typically requires a bachelor’s degree. Dental school usually takes about three years, not counting any additional training that might be needed to become a specialist. Even after earning a dental degree, an individual will have to regularly take continuing education courses to stay licensed; the number of courses required depends on the state.
