Why We Are Different

YOUR TEETH: We believe that people should keep their own healthy teeth for a lifetime. And we're convinced that disease prevention is far more enjoyable, less costly, and more comfortable than disease treatment, for all concerned. That's why when you see us you will know as much about your teeth as we do.
YOUR COMFORT: There's no getting around the fact that many people are anxious about dental appointments. We understand how important it is for you to be comfortable each time you visit our office, whether you're here for a quick checkup or a more lengthy procedure. So we offer a variety of ways to relax: blankets, eye masks, warm neck wraps, and TV screens in each treatment room. To ease anxiety, we offer sedation dentistry. Just make us aware of your concerns and needs at your dental appointment.
YOUR TIME: In our busy world today we realize nobody likes to wait or waste time. Our appointment schedule is designed to minimize wait room time. Our staff has also been trained to work efficiently during your appointment so that your time sitting in the chair is minimal.
YOUR SAFETY: Most people today are aware of and a bit intimidated by the need for excellent sterilization procedures. That's why we've established a state-of-the-art sterilization program to ensure the safety of patients and staff. Our system includes heat sterilization of dental drills between patients and the use of disposable products and cross-contamination barriers. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask. We’re happy to explain our safety procedures to make you feel entirely at ease with how we handle ourselves.
YOUR RESPECT: Our staff strives to obtain the highest level of professionalism possible. We use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques combined with the highest degree of ability and skill. You will receive a thorough examination and an accurate diagnosis. We will explain our findings to you in detail. We will not proceed until you agree to both the treatment and the fee.
YOUR FINANCES: We're sensitive to your feelings about finances. That's why we structure our fees without fluff – they reflect actual time, materials, and laboratory work required for treatment. And, of course, we provide you with a complete estimate before we begin. Plus, our team is skilled in working with insurance companies, and we’re happy to help you deal with yours to help you receive maximum coverage for your treatments.
YOUR EMERGENCIES: Last, but not least, we address dental emergencies with respect and immediate attention. Dr. Ducommun and our team promise to do all that we can to handle your dental emergency promptly and efficiently – on the same day that you contact us, if at all possible.
