If you have any questions for our team at Flenniken Family Dentistry, you’re more than welcome to give us a call. That said, we know it isn’t always convenient to get on the phone. For that reason, we’ve answered some commonly asked questions below, starting with how to find a female dentist!
How can I find a female dentist?
If you are looking for a female dentist in Carlisle, we have good news: we have a compassionate, highly trained, and meticulous one right here! Dr. Suzan Rismani-Flenniken attended Faculté Libre de Médecine in France before continuing her studies at Mary Mount University and Howard University. She also finished the American Academy of Implant Dentistry’s MaxiCourse, so you’re in great hands if you’re interested in restoring your smile with dental implants.
How do I get emergency dental care?
If you are in pain and need help, don’t hesitate to call us! The sooner you do, the sooner we can assist you, whether it’s scheduling a same-day visit or providing you with helpful instructions on how to handle your dental injury at home. Of course, if you’re experiencing any potentially life-threatening symptoms in tandem with your dental emergency, like trouble breathing or difficulty swallowing, then you should call 911 or head to the ER right away.
What do you do if you can't afford a dentist?
One common misconception many patients have is that taking the “wait and see” approach is better for their smiles and their wallets, even if they are in immense pain. The truth is that the vast majority of dental problems, including tooth decay and gum disease, won’t go away with time. In fact, they usually get much worse, which requires even more time and money to treat.
To put it simply, it’s best to reach out to us when you first notice that something is wrong, even if the situation doesn’t seem urgent. Once we pinpoint the root of the problem and review your treatment options, we can provide you with an estimate of the cost and review the financial solutions available. At our Carlisle dental office, we’re happy to welcome dental insurance and flexible financing as well as offer limited-time specials. If you would like further details, simply give us a call!
How can I make a same-day appointment with a dentist?
If you need to make a same-day appointment, whether it’s because you knocked out a tooth or there is a serious crack in your enamel, don’t wait – call us ASAP! Over the phone, a helpful and experienced member of our team can provide immediate assistance, including scheduling an appointment. You’re also welcome to send us an email at smiles@flennikendental.com. We always do our best to respond quickly, but it likely won’t be anywhere near as instantaneous as a phone call.
