Just received the best dental care in Rochester for some delicate & sensitive work I needed. Wonderful staff, facility and very caring dental professional personnel. Wish I had discovered this great Dental Office years ago. An extremely happy customer. Highly recommended.
If you are ready to experience a new kind of dentistry that everyone in your family will appreciate, we look forward to welcoming you to our dental office near Irondequoit. We are located at 50 Cedarfield Commons in Rochester, NY, which means we are less than 20 minutes away. While on Long Pond Road, you will pass A1 Ceiling and Wall Repair and North Greece Family Medicine & Pediatrics. Our practice is near Bill’s Long Pond Diner, Griff’s Auto Service, and Better Building Care. If you need help finding us, give us a call!
When seeking emergency dental care, your first step should always be to call Vollo Dental Group as soon as possible and let someone on our staff assist you. If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 immediately.
Most hospital emergency rooms, mobile clinics, and urgent care centers aren’t equipped to handle dental emergencies, and thus if you go there first, you’re unlikely to be treated.
In most cases, we can accommodate same-day emergency appointments, but please call us directly so we can determine how quickly we can bring you in.
Please note that dental emergencies are often an indication of greater dental problems developing, and an important sign that it’s time to get back into the habit of regular, routine preventive dental care. This will not only save you time and money, but also your natural teeth!
The cost of a dental check-up and cleaning can vary depending on a variety of factors, such as your individual oral health and your location.
Every check-up should begin with a review of your medical history and discussion of any questions or concerns you may have about your oral health. It should also include a thorough exam by your dentist, a professional cleaning, X-rays, and an oral cancer screening.
The average cost for this type of appointments here in the United States is between $200 and $350. If you have dental insurance, the fees for a checkup and cleaning (including any out-of-pocket co-pays) are negotiated with us by your dental insurance company.
The fastest and easiest way to make a same-day appointment is to call us directly. Sending an email will not get as fast of an answer. A phone call is also much more effective, as it allows us to better understand the situation and get you the best care as soon as possible.
The goal of a same-day appointment is typically to examine the problem, eliminate any cause of pain, and finalize a treatment plan. In some cases, more advanced treatment can be completed during a same-day appointment.
Here in the United States, all dentists must earn either a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Sciences (DDS) from one of the nation’s 67 accredited dental schools.
To be accepted into dental school, the student must first earn a bachelor's degree (and very high grades) in a major that’s heavy in both math and sciences.
Dental school is then an additional three or four years which combines classroom and hands-on learning.
Following dental school, many dentists choose to continue their education further by earning one of twelve specializations recognized by the American Dental Association, which require an additional three or more years of dental school training.
All dentists are then required to complete a certain number of continuing education hours to maintain their dental license.
