Altrincham Dental Care FAQs.
Q: I am a very nervous patient and haven't been to the dentist for many years, will I be able to cope with treatment?
A: We pride ourselves on treating every patient as an individual and we have a nervous patient care plan, in order to help us to create a treatment plan around you, including:
- giving you longer appointments so that you are not rushed
- an appropriate break, if needed
- consultations, prior to any treatment, so any concerns and questions are answered
- TVs placed in all of the treatment rooms, to help you relax further
- a hand to hold when needed
Q: I know that I need a lot of work doing, how can I pay for my treatments?
A: We try to offer flexible payment options to our patients and you will always be given a full written estimate before any treatments. From the estimate, you have the choice to:
- Pay as you go and spread the work over a number of appointments.
- Spread the cost over twelve months on an interest free loan agreement, enabling you to have all the treatment completed and then pay for it later at no extra charge.
- You can also spread the cost over longer periods of time, such as two, three or four years. This would be done on a fixed sum loan agreement which enables you to reduce the monthly payments.
Q: I find it hard to get time off work, for dental appointments, do you offer late appointments?
A: We will always try to work around or patients' schedules and our practice offers appointments from 8am to 6pm. We can also offer lunchtime appointments, to ensure that our patients have as much choice as possible.
Q: I am interested in cosmetic work, is this something that can be done at your practice?
A: Yes, we do a lot of cosmetic work, from one tooth to a full dental make-over! We have the added advantage of being able to offer the latest technology, so that a wider range of treatments can be offered to you; from tooth whitening to veneers and crowns to implant work and more.
Our practice is also happy to offer the services of our treatment co-ordinator, so that you can go through all of your options and have any questions answered. We would also be happy to show you, as an additional free service, some of the results that have been achieved at our practice.
That beautiful new smile could be just one appointment away!
