Heard in the waiting room
“They showed me a preview of my veneers on a screen before doing anything. The result looks exactly like it, just more natural.”

Questions
Before your first visit
We’re in-network with most PPO dental plans and will file claims for you. Before treatment, we give you a written estimate of what your plan covers and what you’ll owe.
Join the Brightbay Smile Plan: two cleanings, exams and X-rays each year plus 15% off other treatment, for a flat monthly fee. No waiting periods.
Very common, and we take it seriously. Ask for a longer first visit, noise-cancelling headphones, or sedation options. We explain each step before we do it.
We hold emergency slots every weekday. Call before 10am and we’ll usually see you the same day.
By their first birthday or when the first tooth appears. Early visits are short, playful and mostly about getting comfortable.
New patients: exam, cleaning & X-rays for $129
