Can I Afford Urgent Dental Care?

At Mount Vernon Dental Smiles, we know that an emergency is overwhelming. However, we never want our patients to let the cost of emergency care prevent them from seeking treatment. Our team offers expert care and a gentle approach at prices that fit your budget. We also offer affordable payment plans for uninsured patients. Be sure to ask how we can help you receive the quality dental care you deserve.

How Can I Avoid A Dental Emergency?

While you can’t plan for accidents and injuries, there are some simple ways to prevent dental emergencies:

Avoid eating hard foods, such as ice, hard candies, and popcorn kernels. They can crack or chip your teeth.
Wear a properly fitted mouthguard when participating in sports and other recreational activities. This can help prevent dental trauma caused by hard falls or blows to the face.
Never chew pencils or use your teeth to cut or tear things. This can damage your teeth and gums.
Be sure to practice good at-home dental care and maintain a regular checkup schedule.

Mount Vernon Dental Smiles offers a special New Patient Consultation to evaluate your teeth and gums and show you the ways you can improve your smile. We can take pictures of your teeth and — using cosmetic imaging software — manipulate them to show you how your smile would look using different procedures.
