Stonelodge Dental is a state-of-the-art dental facility located in McKinney, TX. From the moment you walk through the doors, you’ll feel welcome and comfortable. With extended hours and comprehensive services, we cater to all your dental needs.

One of the best ways to protect and maintain your teeth for life is to have a hygienist clean your teeth regularly. At the completion of treatment, you will be added to our prevention follow-up program (recall). We are very proud of our hygiene team; our coordinator, who will remind you of your appointments, and our hygienist, who will help you keep your teeth and gums in optimal health. The interval between your follow-up appointments will depend upon how extensive your oral breakdown has been.

Dental emergencies can usually be seen immediately. Non-emergency new patients are seen for a thorough examination and diagnosis. A comprehensive dental examination will include an evaluation of teeth, gums, bite, joints, and soft tissues of the head and neck area. Insurance and financial arrangements will be handled before the treatment begins.

How often should I see a dentist?

What should I expect during my appointment?

One of our team members will compile your medical and dental history during your first visit. We will then examine your teeth and gums, screen you for oral cancer, take x-rays of your teeth as needed and complete a TMJ (temporomandibular or jaw joint) exam. After we review your dental profile, we will discuss a diagnosis with you. If treatment such as a root canal (endodontics), braces (orthodontics) or oral surgery is needed, we will plan to treat you in our office or refer you to a specialist. We will discuss your options for treatment and fee payment and help you determine the best plan to fit your needs.

During regular follow-up visits, we will examine your teeth and gums, screen you for oral cancer, clean your teeth and make plans for treatment, as needed. We will discuss any pain or problems you may be experiencing and answer any questions you may have.

What if I have an emergency?

Call our office as soon as you determine that you have a dental emergency. We will be glad to work you into our schedule if you have a dental emergency during regular business hours.

Can the dentist whiten my teeth?

Professional teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures our patients choose, and for good reason. This solution has numerous benefits that other methods can’t offer. Over-the-counter whitening strips may work for some time, but often cause tooth and gum sensitivity and wear down the tooth enamel if used too often. Home remedies, such as baking soda, activated charcoal, and whitening toothpaste may show minimal changes in tooth color but are often abrasive and can result in enamel erosion and tooth sensitivity as well. In almost all cases with these methods, results may take weeks or even months to show, and even then, they may be minimal.

What if I have a gap in my teeth, a chipped tooth?
