Frequently Asked Questions
Our team is ready to answer any dental inquiries that might be on your mind! Check out the following FAQs to see our answers to a number of common dental questions.
What is the Best Way to Find a Dentist Who Does Dental Implants?
To maximize your chances of a successful dental implant procedure, you need to think very carefully about the dental practice you choose for the job. In particular, it’s worth checking to see what kind of approach the practice takes for dental implant placement. For example, at Wellesley Dental Group, we’re able to perform dental implant surgery in-house; in contrast, other practices might need to send you to an outside specialist for this particular step of the process.
Additionally, it’s worth looking for a dental expert who specializes in dental implants, such as a periodontist or an oral surgeon. Our team includes Dr. Jose Oscar Colon, a periodontist who is proud to offer dental implants as an alternative to traditional bridges and dentures. He has often spoken locally and internationally about different areas of periodontics and implant dentistry.
How Much Does a Dental Checkup & Cleaning Cost in Wellesley, MA?
Having your dentist examine and clean your teeth every six months is essential for maintaining a healthy smile. In general, a dental checkup and cleaning normally costs between $200 and $350 in the United States. Of course, the geographical location of your dental practice can potentially influence the amount they charge for their services due to the local cost of living. On top of that, the state of your oral health and the specifics of your dental insurance plan can also affect the overall out-of-pocket cost of your routine dental visits.
How Much Does It Cost to Get a Tooth Pulled Without Insurance?
In the United States, a tooth extraction often costs between $150 and $400. There are several factors that can end up influencing the final price, such as:
- The number of teeth being removed and the location of each one.
- The complexity of the extraction process.
- Whether the treatment is performed in-office or by an outside specialist.
- Whether you choose to have sedation administered during your tooth extraction.
- The method used to replace the tooth afterward, if any.
A more detailed estimate can be provided once our team has taken a closer look at your mouth.
What Level of Education is Required to Be a Dentist?
Becoming a dentist in the United States requires one of two degrees: a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). Earning either of these degrees requires four years of study at one of the 67 accredited dental schools in the country. Additionally, any dentist who wishes to become a periodontist or another type of specialist will need to complete three or more additional years of dental school training.
