family dentist Elgin

Looking for a dentist in Elgin because you’re losing the battle with plaque build-up, chipped teeth, tooth pain, stains, or dental caries? I’m Dr. David Rice with David A. Rice, DDS.

Today’s post offers 3 steps to take before you arrive at our office for a consultation.

The state of your mouth is vital to your health both emotionally and physically. Everyone wants to make a pleasing impression when they smile or speak. We understand that.

The look, the odor, the feel, the functionality of your biting surfaces are so important to your everyday experience that we recognize our vital role in finding answers to these issues.

Of course, your very first step is making contact. Please call 847-741-2353 or visit us at 1972 Larkin Ave Ste 1 Elgin or online at https://www.ricedds.com/about-us.html.

After you schedule a consultation with our comfortable team members here at David A. Rice, DDS, please take a moment to review the following checklist for a productive appointment experience:
1. Understand your hygiene routine and gaps in technique or consistency.
When do you brush your teeth? Do you floss? How often? If not, why? We can review your habits and determine what is holding you back, if anything.
2. Identify pain or problem areas throughout your mouth.
Persistent or intermittent? Sharp or dull? Triggered by hot or cold? Living with pain is unnecessary with the technology and expertise available these days. Sometimes there are manageable solutions to seemingly big pains. Let us address all your aches.
3. What do you want your smile to look like?
If you can describe your prime smile, we can explore how to obtain it. There are numerous possibilities for a terrific smile redesign as well as dental maintenance care. Cosmetic dentistry runs the gamut from teeth whitening to veneers to dental implants.

We anticipate you’ll have questions about the cost of porcelain veneers, cost and time commitment for dental implants, possibility of invisible braces, the price of filling a cavity or placing a crown. We will have answers for you. We are equipped and trained in procedures perfect for your concerns and needs. We see patients for porcelain veneers, restorative dentistry, sedation dentistry, general dentistry, or dentures.

When it comes to looking for a dentist in Elgin or the neighboring Wayne, Bartlett IL, or South Elgin communities, please know that you will be in capable hands with me, Dr. David Rice, and my comfortable team.
