FAQs

What dental services do you provide at Sterling Dental Group?

What happens during a timely dental checkup?

A regular dental visit typically includes a thorough oral exam, professional cleaning, and digital X-rays if needed. During your appointment, our dentist will check for cavities, gum disease, and other concerns, ensuring your teeth and gums remain healthy between visits.

What are the common options for straightening teeth?

There are various effective methods for correcting teeth alignment, including conventional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces (which are put on the back of the teeth), and clear aligners like Invisalign. The ideal option depends on your alignment goals, lifestyle, and the complexity of your case. Your dentist can recommend the best treatment during your consultation.

When is a root canal necessary?

A root canal procedure is advised when the tooth’s inner tissue, known as the pulp, experiences inflammation or infection. This can result from deep decay, cracks, or trauma. The procedure helps remove infection, relieve pain, and preserve the natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction.

How often should I visit the dentist?

For most patients, we recommend dental exams and cleanings every six months. Regular checkups allow your dentist to remove buildup, catch early indications of decay or gum disease, and maintain excellent oral health. Depending on your individual needs, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits.

Do you accept dental insurance?

Yes. We accept most major dental insurance plans and work closely with our patients to help them understand and maximize their coverage. Our team is glad to assist with claim submissions, benefit reviews, and financial options to make your care as seamless as possible.
