Frequently Asked Questions

---

Yes, it is recommended you go to the dentist every six months.  Not only does bi-annual checkups and cleaning ensure your teeth are clean and plaque removed, it also lets you catch dental issues early.  Catching dental issues when they are simple will save you time, money, and discomfort.

Yes, we do accept insurance.  However, we are an “out-of-network provider,” which means we do not participate with any specific insurance or adjust our fees in any way.  We are happy to file your insurance claim for you.  As an “out of network provider” and since we do not participate with insurance, we apply what your insurance pays and you, the patient, are responsible for anything insurance does not pay.

We can help you pay for your dental care! Our office accepts Care Credit, and allows you to pay for your care of 12 months interest-free, as long as you don’t miss a payment.  You can apply easily online or over the phone.

The professional bleaching kit our office provides offers custom-made trays and a solution that is of higher concentration than what you buy over the counter. Dentistry at Carolina Forest can also provide a thorough cleaning and checkup before your whitening. This professional level of whitening is a perfect combination of service and at-home convenience.

Understanding your treatment needs is of the utmost importance. If there is anything you do not understand, please feel free to ask the doctor or staff. Dentistry at Carolina Forest is a community dental clinic that strives to give each and every patient the time needed to answer and explain all dental questions.

Dentistry at Carolina Forest loves kids!  We start seeing children for cleanings at age four and up.  For children under four years of age, we recommend seeing a pediatric dentist.
