Benefits of our Family Dentistry in Fort Worth

Family Dentistry

Bringing your child into the dentist from a young age is vital in setting up a lifetime of healthy smiles. Children should see a dentist as soon as their first teeth start growing in. We know that choosing a dentist can be hard, which is why we’ve made the answer clear and simple! There are many reasons why Rio Dental & Orthodontics should be your first choice.

We Are Pediatric Pros

We understand that being able to work with children is essential in pediatric dentistry. An individual may have the training and skills to treat oral issues, but if they lack the ability to connect with and comfort children, then they’re not the right dentist for your family. Our staff loves working with children and will always ensure that they feel comfortable and safe at every appointment.

Comprehensive Care

Driving from location to location can be stressful and take up a lot of your precious time. At Rio Dental, not only do we have board-certified orthodontists and dentists for your children, but we are qualified to tend to the whole family! Whether you’re the child, parent, sibling, or friend, regardless of your age, our team would love to see the whole family. We also have four convenient locations around Texas, so you are able to pick the one that’s closest to you.

Sedation Dentistry

While we make our office’s environments as fun and exciting as possible, we understand that patients of all ages may experience dental anxiety. While sedation options at other dentist offices are generally just used for more invasive procedures, we offer that option for any and all visits, even for just general dentistry procedures and cleanings.

Savings and Dental Insurance Plans

Our team does everything they can to make our services as affordable as possible. That’s why we accept a big list of insurance plans and are in-network with all dental PPOs. We are also proud to offer an in-house savings plan so your child can receive more dental care for a lower price.

Patient Reviews

Our patient reviews speak for themselves! Between all of our locations, we have consistently satisfied clients who return year after year because of our high-quality work and dedicated, talented team. Having plenty of happy clients is a key indicator of an excellent dental office, and we strive to make each and every individual of every family happy with our work.

Different Orthodontic Solutions

While many offices may only offer braces, we offer both traditional braces and Invisalign® treatment. Instead of shopping around for different orthodontic options, we offer them all in our office. During an orthodontic consultation, our orthodontists will evaluate your needs and wants and decide which one of the treatment options is best for you.

Schedule an Appointment Today

Since you and your children will need to go to a dentist at least twice a year every year, it’s important to pick one that you can trust and that meets all your needs. Rio Dental & Orthodontics strives to be the best it can possibly be, with compassionate and skilled staff, convenient services, flexible savings plans, and more.

For a children’s dentist in Fort Worth, TX that can tend to your whole family’s orthodontic and dental needs, contact us today for an appointment. We look forward to seeing you soon in one of our four offices!

  • CareCredit

You can play a part in preparing your child for his or her first visit to our office. Informing your child of the visit as an exciting experience for both of you can ease any hesitations. As a parent try to act relaxed, since your child may sense any anxiety on your part.

Explain to your child that the doctor will “count, brush, and maybe take pictures of their teeth”. We also ask that you assume the role of a silent observer. Cooperation and trust must be established directly between the doctor, staff, and your child and not through you. Your child may become confused if receiving instructions from multiple sources.

We recommend bringing your baby in for their first dental appointment by their first birthday, or within 6 months of their first tooth appearing (whichever comes first). During this appointment, we will examine your baby’s mouth to track their dental development and discuss age-appropriate dental care.

It’s easy to make appointments to visit our office online or over the phone. Rio Dental sees patients both for checkups and dental emergencies. Using our online scheduler, you can select the location and time slot that works best for you for either type of appointment. If you have any questions regarding our practice, or simply prefer to make your appointment with a live member of staff, please don’t hesitate to call!

Rio Dental Group accepts most PPO insurances. We recommend that new patients and returning patients with new insurance policies reach out to us before their appointment to confirm coverage. Our Fort Worth location also sees patients who are covered by Medicaid and CHIP programs.

We don’t like surprises, either! Our staff is prepared to discuss the cost of dental services before you undergo treatment so that you know what to expect in terms of fees. The cost of your services will be due at the end of your appointment. Our office accepts payment by cash, credit card, or check.

Rio Dental Group allows patients to pay with their CareCredit card. CareCredit is a healthcare credit card designed to cover out-of-pocket costs at over 225,000 providers nationwide. After leaving the office, card holders will be able to make convenient monthly payments towards their balance. To learn more, visit the CareCredit website.
