How Can We Help You?
The best way to reach out to our team is by giving us a phone call! This will help you bypass email exchanges and allow our staff to understand your situation right away so we can help. However, we also know your schedule might be busier than most or you simply prefer researching on your own. Still, we want to help! That’s why we’ve collected and answered some of our most frequently asked questions from our patients in Fort Worth. Read on to learn more or give us a call if you want to schedule a visit.
First off, you’ll need to call our practice right away if you’re experiencing a dental emergency. Someone on our team will be able to help guide you on your next steps as well as pencil you in for an appointment. That said, if your situation is more serious or life-threatening, such as uncontrollable bleeding, difficulty breathing/swallowing, or a broken jaw, you’ll want to visit your local ER instead. They might not be equipped to manage dental issues, but they can provide antibiotics and alleviate your symptoms at the very least. Once you’re safe, come to our office so we can resolve your oral health problem. We welcome same-day appointments and offer convenient evening hours. Remember: most dental emergencies stem from avoidable oral health issues, so be sure to schedule preventive treatments to help you save time, money, and trouble.
Simple! First, start by establishing what you deem important for you. This is typically a combination of several factors like location, credentials, safety, cleanliness, hours of operation, insurance, and payment/fees. You should also want to figure out the kind of treatment(s) you’re looking for. Do you need restorative care or cosmetic services, or has it been six months since you’re last dental checkup and cleaning? Not all dentists offer every kind of dental treatment, so you’ll want to find one who can provide what you’re looking for. Finally, you’ll want to check out the dental team and see how they interact with their patients. After all, you want to work with a group you can trust and that prioritizes your dental needs. You can also check out the team and dentist bios on their website to know more about everyone’s background and credentials.
While there isn’t a particular designation that qualifies a dentist to be a cosmetic dentist, you’ll want to look for a professional who has extensive training in aesthetic dental procedures. Various organizations offer advanced courses on cosmetic dental treatments, such as the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD). Fortunately, Dr. Cheng is a proud and active member of this prestigious organization, and he regularly seeks continuing education to refine his skills and expertise in improving patients’ pearly whites!
Remember, dentistry is mostly about prevention, so seeking dental checkups and cleanings every six months can help you save more money in the long run. However, if something happens when you least expect it, you’ll want to have a way to pay for the necessary dental treatments without worrying too much about the price. If you have dental insurance, make sure to consult your provider to know the details of your coverage. To further help you, our team offers plans through CareCredit that can help split the total cost of your treatment into small monthly installments that come with little to no interest!
Booking a dental appointment online is quick and stress-free. Most modern practices now offer easy-to-use online scheduling tools right on their websites!
At Fort Dental, you can request an appointment by simply navigating to your homepage and clicking the “Request an Appointment” button near the top. Then, you’ll fill out a brief form with your contact information, preferred times, and reason for your visit.
Once submitted, our team will reach out to confirm your appointment and discuss any details. As always, if you prefer to speak to someone directly, you can give us a call during business hours. We’re happy to help in any way we can!
Dental implants are one of the most complex procedures in dentistry, requiring precise placement and a working knowledge of minor surgical procedures. To find the right implant dentist, look for someone with advanced training in implant placement and a strong track record of success.
At our Fort Worth practice, we’re proud to have multiple doctors with specialized implant training. Dr. Luk has completed over 300 hours of implant-specific education and is a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. Meanwhile, Dr. Thorburn has trained with the Misch Implant Institute, acquiring advanced surgical skills to improve implant success.
With our team’s expertise and commitment to continuing education, you can feel confident that your implant treatment is in great hands!
Like any medical profession, becoming a dentist requires extensive education and training. A dentist must first complete a bachelor’s degree, then graduate from an accredited dental school with a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) or Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree. Then, they must also pass licensure exams for each state they wish to practice in, requiring additional study every year to stay current.
At Fort Dental, our team takes their education even further, going above and beyond the requirements:
At our Fort Worth dental practice, we believe that a commitment to learning means better, safer care for every patient!
Our newly renovated location is located at 4000 Bryant Irvin Road Fort Worth, TX 76109. Just adjacent to Waterside, this location is conveniently located near Chisholm Trail Parkway and I-20 for easy access.
