||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Our patients often ask us a variety of questions about dentistry, so we have compiled a list of the most frequent questions we have heard from our patients in order to assist you. If you still need more information, please feel free to email or call our office, and we will be more than happy to answer your question.
How does Dr. Ryan keep up-to-date on all of the current techniques and materials?In addition to keeping current with trade magazines, Dr. Ryan is a firm believer in continuing education. He has undergone rigorous training at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, where he worked with some of the top cosmetic dentists in the country. Do you accept my insurance plan?We accept most dental plans. Please call our office for specific coverage questions. What different payment options do you provide?People who come to our office have chosen to do so and we value the opportunity to assist you in your dental health goals. To better answer your payment questions, please contact our office to discuss specific payment options. How can I ask Dr. Ryan questions directly?Dr. Ryan will gladly answer your questions directly through his personal email at drryan@windycitydentist.com. You can also call our office to ask Dr. Ryan your questions. If Dr. Ryan is with a patient or unavailable at the time, please leave a message, and he will return your call as soon as possible. I do not like drills. Are there any other options?Yes. We utilize laser drills, in particular, the DeLight laser, which is used by less than 2% of dentists. It is wonderful for kids and we can do most of the procedures without a shot. My gums bleed after I brush. Is this something to be concerned about?Yes. Bleeding gums can be a sign of a more serious problem, such as gum disease. Please contact our office so we may discuss your specific situation. Do you offer any other services besides dentistry?It is important you understand we stress overall oral healthcare as well as the aesthetic aspects of dentistry. We believe in offering the gamut of dental care services while taking special delight in emphasizing and excelling at cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry does not end with the front teeth—every component of the smile is important. Crowns, veneers, onlays and inlays…where can I learn more about these procedures?Hopefully right here on this web site. You can also learn more about these procedures from the supplemental information we send to your home, a more detailed mail campaign that works in tandem with the web site. I want my front teeth to look better, but I do not want to wear braces. What would you recommend?We suggest Invisalign, an “invisible” way to straighten your teeth without wearing conventional metal braces as a first resort. With Invisalign®, we may be able to give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted through a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners. Invisalign is not for everybody. Please call or email us to set up an appointment so we can evaluate you as a candidate. What is Smile Design?We believe it is important you actually have some control over what is going on. Dr. Ryan will sit down with you and discuss your new smile possibilities. We want you to be involved in your smile decisions because we want you to leave our office feeling confident and with a bright smile. |
