Is Cromwell Dental open on Saturdays?

Our office is closed on the weekends, however, for your convenience we are here after traditional business hours during the week and early mornings, starting at 7am. Visit our contact page to view a full list of our hours.

Will the entire New Patient Exam be covered by my insurance?

The thorough comprehensive exam includes, documenting any cavities, missing or
 unerupted teeth, existing restorations, gum disease and an oral cancer 
check. All of these examinations are usually covered 100% under most benefit plans. If your Perio charting returns showing healthy gums and bone, than a prophylaxis cleaning will be done.

If the Perio charting comes back with unhealthy tissue and a prophylaxis cleaning can not be done, the appropriate deep cleaning would be completed. Deep cleanings vary based on severity and an out of pocket expense can be expected for this treatment.

Do I have to get x-rays?

Dental x-rays are used for diagnosing and treating problems that can't be seen with the naked eye. X-rays reveal cavities between the teeth or hidden by fillings, infections in the bone, fractures, gum disease, abscesses, cysts, and tumors. To give each of our patients the most thorough care we recommend completing a new set of X-rays upon visiting our office for the first time. It's one of the key tools we use to guarantee you have a healthy smile.
