Most insurance plans will cover a regular cleaning exam, and x-rays. If our team determines that you may require a deeper cleaning or alternate treatment, those fees will be discussed before proceeding with any dental work.
At your initial visit, we will create a treatment plan, if any dental work is necessary. Our front desk team can schedule your subsequent visits, answer any insurance questions, and review associated costs for these procedures. We will also schedule your next cleaning appointment.
That tooth needs the protection a crown can offer to prevent it from fracturing. If it fractures, the tooth may also need a root canal or may need to be removed. We only recommend crowns at the time we believe they are needed. We can watch the tooth, but without a crown, can't guarantee it won’t break— even by waiting just one extra day. That said, getting treatment is always your choice and we’re happy to respect your choice and monitor it for you if that is what you would like to do!
