Office Policies

Welcome to Star Care Dental. In an effort to better serve you, we have listed our office policies below. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask one of our dental personnel.
01. We only use composite (resin/tooth colored) or white fillings. We do not use mercury based amalgam or silver fillings.
(Initials)
02. When scheduling your appointments, we reserve a special time just for you. Therefore, we appreciate and require a 24-hour notice for any cancellations. A $35.00 charge will be assessed for any missed or canceled appointments within 24 hours of your scheduled visit.
(Initials)
03. We offer the Velscope (oral cancer screening) which may or may not be covered by your insurance. This service is recommended for every adult over the age of 18 yrs. The annual office fee is $25.00 and payment is due at the beginning of your annual cycle.
(Initials)
04. It is recommended that diagnostic digital x-rays be taken once a year. It is understood that without x-rays we are unable to do a full clinical exam since we cannot see between the teeth or under the gums without them.
(Initials)
05. Periodontal health is directly related to heart health. If it has been over a year since your last dental cleaning, it may be recommended that you have a deep cleaning done at your follow up visit. Failure to do so may lead to bone loss or the loss of teeth.
(Initials)
06. We appreciate it when you arrive on time for your appointment and realize that there may be traffic or extenuating circumstances which may cause you to run behind, so we allow a 15-minute leeway. However, if you are later than 15 minutes, we may require that you reschedule your appointment. It will be up to the discretion of Dr. Nair and or the hygienist.
(Initials)
We treat all of our patients as if they are family. Thank you for choosing us to service your dental needs. If there is anything we can do to make your visit with us more comfortable, please let us know.

Thank you!
