- Multiple awards, accolades, and laurels for her contribution yo restorative and implant dentistry both during and after her university days.

Why Should you Visit Nottingham Dental?
Board-Certified Dentist
In addition to Dr. Yan, Nottingham Dental also has a board-certified dentist — Dr. Chen. She is a Periodontist and Dental Implant Doctor with board certification from the American Board of Periodontology. She is one of the country’s leading dentists and she’s also an active member of dental institutions like the American Academy of Periodontology, the Academy of Osseointegration, and the American Dental Association.
Board certification is one of the strongest guarantors of quality and efficiency. In order to get board-certified, dentists have to go through immense challenges and accomplish several complicated professional milestones. As such, if you’re being treated by a board-certified dentist, you know you’re in the right hands. Nottingham Dental has one of Katy’s best board-certified dentists, so that’s a huge reason for you to schedule an appointment.
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.
State-of-the-Art Technology
In the past decade, technology has advanced at an unprecedented rate and its impact has been felt in all walks of life, including dentistry and healthcare in general. Technological innovations have transformed dentistry and given rise to various dental procedures that didn’t exist earlier or weren’t very accessible.
Nottingham Dental stays abreast of the latest developments and changes in the field of dentistry. Our clinic is equipped with the latest technologies and equipment such as intraoral cameras, digital x-rays, 3D imaging devices, and lasers for soft and hard tissues.
Using these technologies offers the following unique benefits:
- Laser technology has transformed almost all dental procedures and treatments. With a laser, dentists can now treat dental issues without any surgical operation, without scalpels, incisions, or sutures. Laser devices use immense heat energy to alter your soft and hard tissues without causing any discomfort. You don’t even need anesthesia. Furthermore, they’re a lot more accurate, effective, and there’s no downtime after the procedure.
- Imaging devices are far more effective at diagnosing dental issues than traditional dental mirrors. Devices like intraoral cameras give dentists a complete visual look at your oral cavities while 3D imaging scanners give them a 3D colored model of your face, neck, and teeth. If there’s an anomaly, they can immediately spot it.
- In addition to diagnosing the dental issues, imaging devices also help you get quicker insurance coverage because you have visual proof.
