Are you accepting new patients?
Yes! We'd love to schedule an appointment for you.
Do you accept my dental insurance?
As a courtesy to our patients, we bill all insurance companies. We can also check with your dental insurance to help you better understand your benefits.
I’m a very nervous patient. How can you help me?
It's very common for people of all ages to feel nervous about visiting the dentist. No worries! You'll feel more at ease if you set up a free consultation with us. That way you can visit our office and meet Dr. Tinkle, Dr. Yoon, and Dr. Callan to see if Belmont Family Dentistry is the right fit for you. Having an informal, no-obligation visit like this puts many people at ease while they choose what's best for them.
What is considered a true dental emergency?
The following are examples of true dental emergencies where you would need immediate dental care to protect your long-term oral health:
- Bleeding that won’t stop
- A loose or knocked-out permanent tooth
- An injured jaw
- Painful swelling
- Painful toothache (dental abscess)
Do I have to have X-rays taken?
X-rays help Dr. Tinkle, Dr. Yoon, and Dr. Callan diagnose any potential problems as well as create treatment plans to help you maintain a healthy smile. We might be able to transfer your recent X-rays from your previous dental office to Belmont Family Dentistry
Keep in mind that sometimes transferred X-rays lose their quality, so we might need to take some new images to make sure we have a clear picture of your dental health. This is so we can provide you with the best care possible.
