YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Whether you’re considering dental implants, preparing for wisdom teeth removal, or simply
exploring your options, we’re here to provide clear answers and expert guidance every step
of the way.
Call the office or request a consultation online. We will verify your insurance before you come in, so your first visit gives you a diagnosis, a treatment plan, and a clear financial picture all at once.
We take care of it, and we don’t ask you for more money. It’s rare, but if an implant we placed fails to heal, we remove it, perform whatever bone grafting is needed, and place another one. Whether that takes one surgery or three, we see it through.
That is not the standard everywhere. Elsewhere in medicine, every corrective procedure gets billed again. We don’t operate that way, because the value of what we do is knowing the number does not change after you say yes.
Yes. We offer a 10-year clinical guarantee on full-arch cases. The only requirement on your end is that you follow the hygiene protocols we give you and take care of the result.
We have offices in Dallas, Denton, Flower Mound, and Frisco, some of which have operated for more than 40 years so you know the practice that did your surgery will still be here when you need us.
No. We’re proudly locally owned and operated. Our team lives and works in this community, and our kids go to school with your kids.
That matters more than it sounds. Corporate dental clinics frequently cycle through doctors, and patients feel it when they come back a year later with a question and are told the doctor who treated them is gone. Continuity is crucial when someone needs to stand behind surgical work.
That depends on the procedure, and you will have a clear answer before you commit to anything. At your consultation, we map out the full sequence: how many visits, what happens at each one, and who is responsible for which step.
Knowing the plan up front is part of how we take the anxiety out of this.
Yes, and you won’t have to manage it. Coordinating with your dentist is our responsibility and we take it seriously.
Efficient communication with local dentists is one of the things we’re known for, and it is a large part of why patients move through the full process smoothly rather than getting stuck between two offices.
We perform the surgical portion, which is placing the implant and any grafting required. Your general dentist handles the abutment and the crown that goes on top.
Some patients hear that and wish it were a one-stop shop. Here is why the split is actually better for you: you’re getting surgery from a practice that does surgery all day, and a crown from a practice that makes crowns all day, instead of one office dabbling in both.
For straightforward dental work, your general dentist is the right person. Surgery is a different discipline with different training behind it.
Think about it the way you would think about any specialist. If your family doctor offered to do your knee replacement because they took a weekend course, you would likely want the orthopedic surgeon who does them every day. Same principle applies here.
Three things, and most patients do not think to ask about any of them.
We don’t just buy technology as a marketing ploy and then set it in the corner never to be used. We study the available technologies, adopt those we genuinely believe will improve patient outcomes and commit to integrating them into the care of all of our patients.
We are locally owned and operated rather than part of a corporate group. This means our surgeons have the autonomy to do the right thing for our patients without a non-clinical “manager” needing to approve it. And we follow through, financially and clinically, long after the procedure is over. You can read more about our practice and hear directly from our patients.
As a group practice, you can be sure that we always have one or more of our surgeons available to help in your time of need. You don’t need to worry about what happens if the doctor takes a vacation. As the largest true private oral surgery practice in DFW, we pride ourselves on remaining available for urgent and emergent care.
We are not the cheapest oral surgery practice in Dallas-Fort Worth, and we are not the most expensive either. What we are is accountable.
When patients compare full-arch quotes, the questions usually focus on the commoditized parts: how many implants, what the bridge is made from. Those questions are fair, but they are not where the real difference lives. The real difference is what happens if something goes sideways, and who is standing behind the work in five years.
We stand behind ours, and because we do this every day, it’s far more likely to go right the first time.
Yes. We verify every patient’s insurance ahead of the consultation, so by the time you leave that first visit you will know what we expect your insurance to contribute and what your responsibility looks like.
No surprises later, and no guessing. In order for us to honor this commitment, it is critical that you do your online paperwork prior to arrival and provide all of your insurance information to our team completely and accurately.
Absolutely. We work with multiple financing partners so patients can spread payments out over time, in many cases with no interest, and over a period of years when that’s what it takes.
The goal is to remove cost as the reason you delay care you need. We will go through all of the options with you at your consultation.
Because dental insurance functions more like a coupon than like insurance. Most plans have an annual maximum contribution, and once the plan hits that number it stops paying for the year.
Medical insurance works close to the opposite way. You pay up to a deductible and then coverage picks up. That difference catches a lot of people off guard, and it is worth knowing before you plan treatment.
Our promise is straightforward: your insurance does not dictate what we recommend. We will tell you what you actually need, and then work to get the largest contribution from your plan that we can.
No. Medicare does not cover dental care, which means dental implants and tooth extractions are not covered regardless of which office you choose.
This matters because many patients call and ask whether a practice accepts Medicare, when the more useful question is whether they have a supplemental dental plan. If you do have a supplemental dental plan, we are very likely in network with it, though most of those plans contribute modestly.
We hear this one every week, usually phrased as “you are surgeons, so isn’t this medical?” In almost all cases, oral surgery is billed through your dental insurance.
The exception is a specifically medical problem such as an oral pathology concern or a biopsy, which can be billed to medical but often goes towards a deductible rather than being paid for by the medical plan. We do not participate with any medical plans.
Most likely, yes. We are in network with the majority of commonly held PPO dental plans. Unless you have an unusual plan, the odds are strong that we participate.
We are not in network with HMO plans, government plans such as Medicaid, or any medical plans. You can see more on our financing and insurance page, or contact us and we will check your specific plan.
Almost everyone arrives having heard something from a friend, a relative, or a friend of a friend. Here is the thing worth understanding: every situation is different, and a story about someone else’s procedure tells you very little about yours.
The specific tooth, the anatomy, the surgeon’s experience, and the technology used all change the outcome. We would rather you bring those stories to your consultation and let us tell you honestly what your recovery is likely to look like.
It’s completely normal, and it is not always about pain. Many patients tell us they are anxious about being judged for the condition of their teeth, or embarrassed that things got to this point.
That’s not how we operate. Creating a safe, judgment-free visit is something we work at deliberately. You are not the first person to walk in feeling that way, and whatever is going on in your mouth, we’ve seen it and we are here to fix it.
We do not, and there is a clinical reason for it. Patients usually ask about nitrous oxide because they are hoping for something less expensive than IV sedation that will still take the edge off.
The problem is that laughing gas is unpredictable for oral surgery patients. It can be useful for a routine dental visit, but for anxious surgical patients it often does not do enough, and people end up paying for something they feel did not help. We would rather offer you an option we know works.
We offer IV sedation, oral sedation, and general anesthesia. For most patients who feel anxious about a procedure, IV sedation is the right answer, because it works reliably every single time.
Oral sedation is available if you prefer it. General anesthesia is also available and is scheduled with a separate anesthesia provider as needed. In most cases, our team handles the anesthesia and the surgery together at the same time, with highly trained assistants supporting throughout.
