I’ve been a long-time patient of Doctor Partovi and always been extremely satisfied with the service that she and her office staff provide. I got Invisalign with Dr. Partovi a few years ago and have been very happy with the results. I highly recommended Dr Partovi.”

I highly recommend Dr. Partovi. She went beyond the surface problem and addressed the core of the issue I was having with cracked teeth. I did Invisalign, filling replacements, bonding and teeth whitening and love my new smile. She and her entire staff are a joy to work with.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What Do You Do If You Can’t Afford a Dentist?

The important thing to remember about dental care is that it focuses heavily on prevention. Seeing the dentist now could lower your risk for more serious dental issues later, which in turn can help you avoid needing to pay for more complex and costly procedures. As such, it’s worth taking whatever steps you need to in order to make visiting the dentist affordable.

One strategy for fitting dental care into your budget more easily is to take advantage of your dental insurance benefits. However, if you do not currently have dental insurance, it may be worth applying for CareCredit financing instead. CareCredit allows you to pick a payment plan with little to no interest that’s suitable for your budget. Be sure to talk to our team if you want to learn more about your financial options.

How Do I Find the Best Place to Get Dental Work Done?

You should have a clearly defined picture of what you want your new dental practice to be like. Many people prioritize looking for a location that will take their insurance, is located nearby, offers services that meet their specific oral health needs, and goes out of its way to help patients have a positive experience. Think carefully about what you’re looking for so that you can search for dental practices with the right traits.

Upon finding a dental office that you’re interested in, you should visit their website and see what you can learn about the dentist’s credentials and their approach to care. You can also read their reviews on Google if you want to see the feedback that other patients have given them.

How Much  Does a Dental Checkup & Cleaning Cost in Rockville, MD?

The location of your dental practice, your dental health, and your dental insurance coverage are all factors that can influence the cost of a dental checkup and cleaning. The average in the United States is between $200 and $350, but this is before taking your dental insurance plan into account; some insurance carriers are willing to cover 100% of the cost of preventive dental services. Our team will be happy to discuss the cost of your visit in more detail, and we will gladly answer any questions you may have.

What Level of Education is Required to Be a Dentist?

In the United States, dentists need to have one of two degrees: a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). Obtaining either of these degrees requires enrollment in dental school, which can only be done upon completion of a bachelor’s degree. Dental school normally takes four years, and students are given plenty of opportunities for hands-on learning.

Dentists who have already earned their DMD or DDS can only stay licensed if they remain dedicated to continuing education. A specific number of continuing education hours must be completed on a regular basis.
