The clinic offers a wide range of dental services designed to meet the needs of patients across all age groups, from young children to adults. These services encompass:
General Dentistry: This includes regular dental exams, professional cleanings, and preventive treatments such as dental sealants to protect against decay. They also utilize digital X-rays, which expose patients to significantly less radiation (50-70% less) compared to traditional X-rays, and are easily shared and manipulated for better communication and care coordination.
Cosmetic Dentistry: To enhance smiles, they offer porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and even Botox.
Restorative Dentistry: For damaged or missing teeth, they provide bridges, dentures, dental implants, and root canal treatments.
Emergency Dentistry: They also offer services for urgent dental needs, including tooth extractions when necessary, always performing thorough examinations with X-rays to determine the best course of action and providing detailed aftercare instructions.
Other specialized treatments: This includes laser dentistry, periodontal treatment, and TMJ treatment.
Maryland Family Dentistry places a strong emphasis on patient education, empowering individuals to understand their oral health conditions and practice good hygiene at home to prevent future issues. They strive to be transparent about treatment options, allowing patients to make informed decisions that align with their needs and preferences, considering factors like aesthetics, longevity, function, and finances.
The clinic understands that dental procedures can be a financial concern and is committed to making dental care accessible. They accept most major dental insurance plans, including Aetna, Ameritas, Availity, BCBS, Cigna, Delta Dental, GEHA, Guardian, Humana, Metlife, Principal, United Healthcare, and United Concordia (excluding HMO versions). For those without insurance or requiring more extensive treatment, they also offer financing options like CareCredit, which provides no-interest or low-minimum monthly payment plans.
