Preston Bend Dental (PBD) offers exceptional family, cosmetic & restorative dentistry in a state-of-the-science facility, giving patients the best of all possible experiences. As a dentist in Plano, TX, Dr. Anita Naik Madhav and her team are all committed to this ideal. With their training and access to the latest technology, they deliver an inimitable brand of dental care.
Dr. Madhav was born in Lusaka, Zambia, and was raised with the traditions of the small communities of that region - communities that, even today, value honesty, integrity, and trust. Dr. Madhav embodies these simple yet fundamental qualities, as evidenced by the way she treats her patients and the way she practices dentistry.
In 1988, Dr. Madhav left her home in Zambia to pursue her dental education in Oklahoma. She completed her undergraduate degree at South Western Oklahoma State University, and then enrolled at the Oklahoma University College of Dentistry. She also completed the highly selective Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency program, which gave her the opportunity to treat patients with diverse needs.
"Excellent for all ages! The entire staff is so friendly, accommodating, and sees to it that you have a great experience. I took my two year old son who cries at the sight of a white lab coat. They made sure he was cared for in a way that suited his needs - balloons, no lab coats, and instead of cleaning his teeth in the chair, we took him to the bathroom so it would be more like home. Cannot say enough good things! Love them!"
“I have trusted my teeth to Dr. Madhav for nearly 20 years and cannot say enough. I have been repeatedly amazed by her impeccable skill, professionalism, attention to detail, personal follow up, and caring staff. The entire practice runs like a top from the moment a patient walks through the door - no waiting, friendly and knowledgeable care, direct communication, and a warm, welcoming environment. Dr. Madhav and staff truly are the best!”
"The staff was excellent and very educational on the processes. They approach everything with the client in mind. I like the fact they addressed the financial obligations before proceeding with any treatment so you could make a decision on what you could accept in terms of treatment updates."
Generally speaking, emergency rooms are not properly equipped to deal with toothaches, knocked-out teeth, and other urgent dental issues. You are much more likely to get the kind of treatment that your smile truly needs if you call your dentist. Please reach out to us if you require emergency dental care; we’ll make the necessary arrangements to see you as soon as we can, and we will give you advice for managing the situation on your own until your visit.
If there’s a problem that is putting your life at risk, call 911 immediately. Any dental issues can be dealt with once you’re no longer in immediate danger.
Choosing the right dental practice requires a thorough understanding of your own needs. Make a list of the most important traits you want your new dental home to have; this may include being located near your place of residence or offering a specific kind of procedure. After finding a practice that seems suitable, take the time to learn more about the dentist and their credentials, and check the reviews that they’ve received on Google and Yelp.
All dentists in the United States have earned either a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). Acquiring either of these degrees requires four years of dental school, which includes classroom learning along with hands-on experience. Dentists need to keep learning in order to stay licensed, as after graduation they must periodically complete a number of continuing education hours. (The exact number of hours depends on the state.)
The answer to this question won’t be exactly the same for every patient. While the average in the United States is between $150 and $400, there are a number of variables that can affect the cost. Not only are some extractions more complex than others, but you may need to take the cost of related procedures into account. The good news is that you will be given a trustworthy estimate by our team beforehand, so you can start making a plan for fitting the cost of tooth extraction into your budget.
The location of a dental practice can affect how much you can expect to pay for its services. Your dentist will set their fees based on the local cost of living. Additionally, other factors such as your oral health may be taken into account. Generally speaking, the cost of a dental checkup and cleaning is between $200 and $350 on average throughout the United States. If you plan on using dental insurance to help pay for your preventive care, we can file a claim for you.
