Can you see me today for an emergency?

Do you see kids?

Yes. We see kids from their first visit at age one. See kids' dentistry.

Insurance and cost

Do you take my insurance?

Most likely. We're in network with most dental insurance plans and we file the claims for you. Call 248-398-5520 with your plan name and we'll check your benefits.

What if I don't have insurance?

Our membership plan is $399 a year for adults and covers checkups, cleanings and x-rays, with 20% off most other treatment.

Do you offer financing?

Yes, through CareCredit, Cherry and Proceed Finance. Checking whether you prequalify doesn't affect your credit score. See financing and insurance.

Will I know the price before treatment?

Yes. You'll get your treatment plan and price in writing before anything starts.

Comfort and sedation

I'm really nervous. Can you help?

Yes. You can start with a visit where we just talk, and choose nitrous, a single dose of anti-anxiety medication, or simply a slower pace. See dental anxiety.

Do you offer sedation?

We offer nitrous oxide ($75 a visit) and oral sedation, a single dose of anti-anxiety medication before your visit with a driver ($444 a visit). Sedation is included in the All-on-X price. We don't offer IV sedation in our office. If you need it, we'll refer you to an oral surgeon we trust.

Is your office wheelchair accessible?

Yes. We have a step-free entrance with a gentle ramp, and an accessible restroom. Tell us when you book if you need any other help at your visit.

Implants and dentures

Do you place implants in your office?

Yes. Dr. Ansari plans implants on our in-office 3D CT scanner, places them, and makes the teeth that go on them, all in our Royal Oak office.

What's the difference between All-on-X and snap-in dentures?

All-on-X is a full arch of fixed teeth on four to six implants that only the dentist removes. Snap-in dentures use two to four implants to hold a removable denture firmly in place, and we can often convert the denture you already have.

How much does All-on-X cost?

All-on-X starts at $18,995 per arch with hybrid final teeth. Zirconia final teeth are an upgrade, at $22,000 to $24,000 per arch. You'll get an exact price in writing at your free consult, once we've seen your 3D scan. Insurance may pay toward parts of it, and financing is available.

How much do snap-in dentures cost?

From $5,000 per arch to convert the denture you already have, and from $7,500 with a new denture, extractions included. See snap-in denture prices.

Is the implant consult free?

Yes, and so is the 3D CT scan we take at the consult. You'll leave with a written plan and price.
