Why Should you Look for Board-Certified Dentists?
When you’re searching for one of the best dentist in your area, you should filter dentists based on whether they are board-certified. While board certification isn’t necessary to practice dentistry, it’s the strongest and most objective guarantor of quality available. Board certification serves as a guarantee that the dentist in question has gone through rigorous training and has surpassed complicated professional goals and milestones. As such, they’re some of the most experienced and some of the best dentists in the country.
However, in addition to board certification and technical qualification, you also need to make sure that the dentist is compassionate and friendly. At Nottingham Dental, we have two board-certified and extremely compassionate dentists — Dr. Chen and Dr. Yan. While Dr. Chain is our leading dentist, Dr. Yan is also one of the region’s best dentists, having distinguished herself at her dentistry school at the University of California, San Francisco School of Dentistry.
Why Should you Visit Nottingham Dental?
State-of-the-Art Technology
Healthcare and dentistry advance at a rapid pace. Procedures that may have been favorable a few years ago may now be obsolete because of the development of new technologies. In the past, dental procedures were often handled with incisions, sutures, scalpels, etc, and the procedures led to bleeding, discomfort, and high recovery downtime. But thanks to modern technology, the diagnosis and treatment of dental issues has become a lot easier and more effective. Furthermore, modern dental procedures using advanced technology don’t cause any discomfort and don’t lead to any downtime.
Nottingham Dental stays ahead of the curve with all the breakthroughs in dentistry and our clinic is equipped with all the latest dental diagnostic and treatment technologies. We use technologies like intraoral cameras, digital x-rays, and 3D imaging scanners, and highly-effective soft tissue and hard tissue lasers.
These modern technologies have the following benefits:
- They assure you that our clinic and dentists stay up-to-date with the latest dental techniques and procedures.
- Modern technologies like lasers can treat dental issues far more effectively with a lower risk of side effects, better results, and no downtime. You don’t even need anesthesia and can go back to your regular routine almost immediately.
- Modern imaging devices and equipment — 3D imaging scanners, intra-oral cameras, and digital x-rays — are far more accurate than dental mirrors. With these devices, dentists can identify the smallest of hidden anomalies and treat them before they get worse.
- Imaging devices produce high-quality videos and pictures that serve as proof so you can get insurance coverage quickly.
Discount Dental Service Plan
Nottingham Dental is affiliated with all of the leading dental insurance providers in the country. This is necessary because dental procedures can often be extremely expensive and most people can’t afford to pay for them out of pocket. Our clinic’s staff also helps you contact the insurance providers and they help you get one of the best possible coverage.
But what happens if you don’t have dental insurance? Does that mean you can’t seek dental treatments? Not quite.
Nottingham Dental believes preventative dental treatments should be within reach for everyone. To that extent, we offer the Smile Savers Plan, with which you can get free yearly checkups, screenings, teeth cleaning, and discounted procedures for yourself and your family.
The Smile Savers Plan cost only $195/yearly per person. With this program, you get access to free teeth cleaning (if you don’t have periodontal disease) and other benefits:
- One fluoride application
- Two routine teeth cleanings per year.
- Two routine oral exams and cancer screening per year.
- One emergency exam per year, if necessary.
- X-ray exams.
- 15% discount on dental products.
- 25% discount on orthodontics.
- 25% discount on other dental services.
