Making Good Use Of Your Dental Insurance

At Stovall & Cheng, we are highly skilled at helping you maximize your dental insurance.  Whether you have limited time until your dental insurance ends, or you fear that you may be losing your insurance soon, or you simply just want to know what percentage your insurance covers on specific procedures, we can help. 

Dental insurance is a good benefit to have, but should not dictate your treatment.  Delaying treatment can lead to more problems down the road and will lead to more expense. 

Please don’t wait any longer!  Call today for an appointment at 817-292-5957.

Need A Second Opinion?

At Stovall & Cheng, we pride ourselves on giving an honest opinion and recommending treatment.  Several times a week, patients come in for second opinions and we gladly take a look, get the intraoral camera and flash the tooth in question directly on to the TV in the room!  Imagine if you could SEE the problem for yourself!  It takes away doubt and fear and gives clarity to what needs to be done to fix the tooth.

There is no obligation to “become a patient” just because we look at your dental problem.  However, we are confident that once you visit our office and experience our excellent care, our genuine interest in your well-being and our state-of-the-art technology, you’ll want to stay and establish a life-long partnership with us to maintain your oral health.

Call us today at 817-292-5957!  We can get you in within a few days or many times, the same day!  We welcome emergencies and are always open to new patients.

Affording The Best Dentistry In A Down Economy and Fitting It Into Your Budget

With the economy in a downturn, we know there are times when affording the best dentistry may be more challenging.  That’s why we pride ourselves on providing you with the most up-to-date options of fitting the cost of the best dental work into your budget.

We also provide other options on fixing teeth to put you into a “holding pattern” until you can afford more expensive work. 

Whatever the situation is, our goal is providing you with the best care available.  That includes giving you you options, listening to what YOU want and what YOUR goals are and helping you find ways to afford the best possible dental care available.

The first step, though, is getting in the door!  We cannot help you if we haven’t assessed your situation yet. 

With our intraoral camera, you will see everything that we see.  The power in the camera for you, the patient, is that there is no “guesswork” on your part to figure out what we’re talking about.  A picture is worth a thousand words and once you get to see your teeth for yourself, you will be empowered with information.  Information about the current status of your teeth because it allows you to make informed decisions about your own teeth.  And don’t worry, we will guide you every step of the way and have your treatment completely planned and sequenced for you. 

By the time you leave you will know how much treatment will be and how many appointments it will take.

The time is now to improve your health!  Call today for an appointment!  817-292-2927
