Frequently Asked Questions

We believe in complete transparency. Below, we address the most common concerns about pricing, anxiety, and treatments.

Cost, Financing & Insurance

How we make high-quality dental care affordable without corporate insurance constraints.

Is the first consultation really 100% free?

Yes — absolutely, with zero catches. Your first visit includes a comprehensive oral health exam ($150 value), a full 3D digital smile scan ($147 value), and a personalized custom treatment roadmap. There are no hidden fees, no fine print, and zero obligation to book any treatment. You walk away with your 3D scan files regardless.

Do you accept dental insurance?

To provide the highest quality care without corporate insurance restrictions, we are a fee-for-service practice. This allows us to always recommend what's best for you — not what an insurance company approves. We accept all major credit cards, and partner with CareCredit, Sunbit, and LendingClub Patient Solutions for interest-free plans starting as low as $49/month, so you can start care today.

What financing options do you offer?

We partner with three best-in-class financing networks: CareCredit (0% APR for 6–24 months), Sunbit (90% approval rate, no hard credit inquiry, from $49/mo), and LendingClub Patient Solutions (extended plans up to 60 months). You can apply in minutes right from our office with no paperwork.

Dental Anxiety & Pain Management

Objections around phobias, pain, and how our comfort technologies make visits stress-free.

I have severe dental anxiety. How do you help?

You are not alone — nearly 1 in 3 adults avoids the dentist due to fear. We are specifically designed for anxious patients: we offer noise-canceling headphones, warm blankets, neck pillows, a gentle 'stop any time' policy, and oral conscious sedation for more intensive procedures. Dr. Mitchell designed the entire practice around her own former dental phobia — your comfort is our highest priority.

How does your 100% Comfort Guarantee work?

Simple: if you experience discomfort during your routine hygiene cleaning and our team fails to correct it immediately, your visit fee is completely refunded. No questions, no arguing. Your comfort is our contract — and we stand behind it completely.

Treatments & Technologies

Details about treatment timelines, recovery, and what to expect with modern alignment or implants.

How long does a dental implant take?

Most implant cases are completed in 2–3 appointments over 3–6 months. With our 3D cone-beam CT guided precision placement system, the surgical procedure itself typically takes under 45 minutes. We also offer implant-supported same-day provisional crowns so you leave with a complete smile.

How fast does Invisalign work?

Most adults complete Invisalign treatment in 6–18 months — about 50% faster than traditional braces. Dr. Kowalski uses a proprietary digital acceleration protocol to optimize your aligner sequence. You'll see visible improvements within the first 60 days.
