What Is a Dental Emergency?

Looking for some guidance? Our frequently asked questions have everything you need to know to enjoy your visit to Tend Dental Clinton Hill.
-

-
How often should I come in for a dental cleaning?
For patients without complex oral health needs, we recommend routine cleaning and checkups every six months. These regular visits help us catch small issues like early signs of decay or gum disease before they become more serious or expensive to treat.
We may recommend more frequent checkups for patients with a history of gum disease, those who wear orthodontic appliances such as aligners, or those who are more prone to plaque buildup. Your dentist will work with you to create a personalized care plan based on your needs, so you’re always getting the right level of care at the right time.
Even if everything looks great, cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't remove, and they’re key to keeping your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.
-
What are your payment and financing options at Tend Dental Clinton Hill?
At Tend Dental Clinton Hill, we aim to make paying for your dental care as simple and stress-free as possible.
You can securely pay your bill online with easy, encrypted options like HSA/FSA cards, credit or debit cards, Apple Pay/Google Pay, and more. Through our partner Cedar, you can view your insurance details, track balances, receive reminders, and even set up a custom 0% interest payment plan that fits your budget.
We also offer flexible financing through CareCredit, a healthcare-focused credit option that lets approved patients spread out their dental costs in convenient monthly payments, including for care not fully covered by insurance.
Before any treatment, we’ll clearly explain your expected costs and payment choices so you feel confident moving forward
-
Are you accepting new patients?
Yes, we are currently welcoming new patients at Tend Dental Clinton Hill! Whether it’s been six months or six years since your last dental appointment, our team is here to help you feel comfortable. We take pride in providing a judgment-free environment where every patient is treated with empathy and respect.
Your first visit will include a comprehensive exam, a detailed review of your oral health, and time to talk through any concerns or goals you have. We’ll ensure you feel informed, comfortable, and fully supported from the moment you walk in.
-
What should I expect during my first visit?
Our goal is to help you feel welcome and well-informed during your first visit to our studio. Here’s what your initial appointment includes:
- A complete dental exam to assess your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health
- Digital X-rays for a detailed look below the surface (with significantly lower radiation than traditional X-rays)
- A gentle, professional cleaning tailored to your needs
- A one-on-one conversation with your dentist, who will walk you through any findings, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan if needed
We’ll also review your dental history, talk about your goals (whether it’s improving your oral health or brightening your smile), and give you time to ask questions without feeling rushed.
Our studio is designed with peace and tranquility in mind, allowing you to sit back, relax, and enjoy your dental visit.
