What is CareCredit?

At Dentist of Lubbock, we believe everyone should afford outstanding dental care. We understand that not everyone has dental insurance, and not all plans cover all treatment costs. That's why we accept CareCredit.

Your CareCredit healthcare card can cover many areas of dental care for you and your family, including preventive dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, periodontal treatments, root canal therapy, dental fillings, and mouthguards. It also covers dental implants, crowns, braces or retainers, Invisalign, dental veneers, and so much more. Whether you require preventative, restorative, or elective cosmetic dental care, CareCredit has you covered!

CareCredit is different from a regular credit card. It's specifically designed to cover out-of-pocket medical and dental care expenses. CareCredit offers special financing plans not available with other credit card options, including no-interest payments within the promotional period payment plan or long-term financing. To learn more about CareCredit, please call our dental office or visit www.CareCredit.com.

How often should you schedule your dental visits?

According to the American Dental Association, you should schedule dental visits at intervals determined by your dentist. In general, patients require twice-yearly exams and cleanings. However, some patients with gum disease or those at a higher risk of developing dental problems will require more frequent appointments. Our team will evaluate your unique needs and recommend the ideal frequency of visits to maintain your healthy smile.

What are signs you should schedule a dental appointment?

Most individuals require twice-yearly dental exams and cleanings. However, it's important to schedule an appointment between routine visits if you have signs or symptoms of dental problems. These include tooth pain or sensitivity, red or bleeding gums, damaged dental work, persistent bad breath, a dry mouth, facial pain or swelling, a sore that won't heal, or any other concerns. Our team will evaluate your condition and recommend the best course of treatment.
