Acerca de nuestra oficina
Do you perform general dentistry or only cosmetic dentistry?
Our primary focus is on dental implants and Invisalign procedures, but we also have extensive experience in aesthetic porcelain restorations, including crowns, bridges, composites, and teeth whitening. In addition, we provide routine dental care such as cleanings, cavity restorations, and more. What makes us unique is our state-of-the-art technology combined with personalized treatments, all offered in a calm and welcoming environment designed to make every patient feel comfortable.
I would like my smile improved, but I am simply fearful of going to the dentist. Can you do anything to make me feel better?
Fortunately, many dental procedures do not have to be uncomfortable anymore, or certainly not as uncomfortable as when you were a child. A great deal has changed in the past 10 years. Our office uses new, more effective types of anesthetic to numb the teeth than in earlier years, and we have many amenities and alternatives designed to distract you from the dental procedure and to help you with the psychological discomfort you may associate with visiting a dentist. Our office offers DVD movies, music CDs, anti-anxiety medication (when appropriate), and a friendly and caring staff to make sure you are comfortable in every aspect of your visit. That is why we offer visits ony by appointment, so that we can have the correct time scheduled for taking care of you without stress or hassles.
Are you more expensive than other cosmetic dentists?
Our fees are comparable to those at premier cosmetic dental boutiques nationally. If you are price shopping for cosmetic dental care, bear this in mind — just like all restaurants, cars, or hotel rooms are not the same and you would never purchase one because it was the cheapest one you could find – all cosmetic dental offices are not alike. With such a high level of artistry, technology, and science needed for optimal results, there are at least two healthcare professionals you should not skimp on- your brain surgeon and your cosmetic dentist. This is not to say that our office is necessarily higher on the specific treatment you may need. In fact, depending on the procedure, our fees may be lower than other cosmetic dental practices. We encourage you to experience what separates us from other cosmetic dental practices, before making a life-altering decision based on price alone. We are confident you will agree that our services are value-priced.
Will my dental insurance cover cosmetic dental treatment?
Like plastic surgery, insurance does not usually cover treatment done for purely cosmetic reasons. However, treatment that is needed to repair broken or decayed teeth or to replace existing restorations that are defective may qualify for some insurance reimbursement.
How Long Will It Take?
Each individual client is a unique case…
Therefore it is difficult to quote a time schedule. On average, an in house whitening procedure will last about an hour and a half. Caries restorations, amalgams, resin bonding cases can be accomplished in a matter of hours in one visit. Other cases that involve crowns, bridges, and porcelain veneers require us to prepare the teeth on the first visit, after which you will be sent home with a customized temporary set of teeth. After your case is returned from our laboratory, we will seat your permanent crowns, veneers or bridges. Implants also require at least two, to multiple visits. Invisalign cases require multiple visits.

Will It Hurt?
There are few issues in our practice that have been the focus of as much emphasis as this one. Today, with advances in equipment and medications, our clients state they are much more comfortable in their treatment. Once we have a treatment plan outlined, your specific questions about discomfort and pain control can easily be answered. Above all don’t put off cosmetic procedures, and certainly not if it is needed dental care, because of past fears of pain. Give us the chance to show you what today’s cosmetic dentistry offers.
Our top priority here at Dietrich Dental is you, the patient. We are only comfortable if you are comfortable. We use a variety of techniques to help you relax and even enjoy your visit with us. Dr. Dietrich employs a technique for applying local anaesthesia which most patients don’t feel a thing! It’s a secret recipe of our highly trained doctor. Our well trained professional staff members are among the best in today’s dentistry field and are looking forward to taking care of you!
