Dentist Covington, WA

Step one should always be to call your dentist and explain your situation. A dental team member will listen carefully to you before they give you advice for managing the problem at home. Then they will schedule an emergency appointment for you so that you can have your smile treated by a professional as soon as possible. It’s important to seek treatment as soon as you can; an untreated dental emergency will likely grow more severe the longer it’s left unaddressed.

It should be noted that certain issues (such as a fractured jaw, severe oral bleeding that can’t be stopped, or swelling that makes it hard to breathe or swallow) are best treated at an emergency room. Please call 911 if you think your life is at risk. Once you’re out of immediate danger, you can get in touch with your dentist to discuss treatment for oral health issues that might still be present.

More than a third of all dentists in the United States are female. If you are specifically looking for a women-led dental practice, a simple online search is your best option. All you need to do is type “female dentist near me” into Google, and you should quickly find the results that you want. To learn more about a specific female dentist, you can check their website to see if they have a biography that discusses their credentials.

Here at Complete Dental Care of Covington, we have two knowledgeable, caring female dentists: Dr. Navi Dhaliwal and Dr. Neveen Elabbasy. They always enjoy helping patients and their families achieve the smiles that they deserve.

As with many dental treatments, the cost of a tooth extraction can vary based on the patient’s circumstances. We always strive to be transparent about the costs of our services, and we will take the time to explain the factors that will influence the amount you pay for your treatment. Some of the variables that need to be accounted for include the number of teeth, the location of said teeth, and the type of extraction (with simple extractions costing less than surgical ones).

If you need to have your wisdom teeth removed, you can typically expect the procedure to have a higher price tag compared to a traditional tooth extraction.

Becoming a dentist takes many years of study. The first step is to earn a bachelor’s degree; after that, one needs to enroll in dental school. It generally takes four years to complete dental school and earn a Doctor of Dental Medicine or a Doctor of Dental Surgery. After becoming licensed, dentists need to be able to commit themselves to a lifetime of learning, as they will be regularly required to complete a specific number of continuing education hours
