Request AppointmentFrequently Asked Questions
Our office at 8 Clark Way in Somersworth is about a 25 minute drive from Portsmouth. The route follows the Spaulding Turnpike, which is NH-16 North, to exit 9, and then takes NH-108 North to Clark Way. Our directions section above has the full route, and our team is happy to help if you need guidance.
Most patients should have a professional cleaning and exam about every six months. These visits help us remove plaque and tartar, find problems early, and keep your teeth and gums healthy. Patients with gum disease or other concerns may need more frequent visits, and we will recommend a schedule that fits your needs.
The cost depends on your situation, because implant care has two parts, the surgical placement and the restoration. A qualified specialist we coordinate with places the implant, and we design and place the crown, bridge, or denture. There are many types of implant restorations, so costs vary widely. A consultation is the best way to get an accurate estimate. Learn more on our dental implants page.
Yes, please do. Dental anxiety is more common than most people realize, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. When we know about your concerns, we can go at your pace, explain each step, and offer sedation options to help you relax. You can learn more on our sedation dentistry page.
Cosmetic dentistry includes treatments that mainly improve the appearance of your smile, such as teeth whitening, dental bonding, and veneers. Other treatments, including crowns, bridges, implant restorations, and full mouth rehabilitation, offer both cosmetic and functional benefits. We will recommend the most conservative option that gives you the result you want. Learn more on our cosmetic dentistry page.
Guided Biofilm Therapy is a modern approach to professional cleanings that makes biofilm visible, then removes it gently and thoroughly with a spray of warm water, air, and fine powder. Many patients find it more comfortable and more thorough than traditional cleanings. Only a small number of New Hampshire offices offer it. You can read more on our Guided Biofilm Therapy page.
We are open Monday through Thursday from 8 am to 5 pm, and closed Friday through Sunday. We do not currently offer evening or weekend hours. If you need an early appointment, call us and we will do our best to find a time that fits your schedule. You can request an appointment through our online form.
We accept all dental insurance plans except Medicaid, and we are in network with Delta Dental Premier. Our team will verify your benefits before your visit and explain your estimated costs.
