What is the Number One Issue Patients Face When Trying to Find a New Dentist?

Answer: Finding someone who fully understands your situation, and works to understand your smile challenges and meet your goals!

This is where our approach at Renken Dentistry is different from everywhere else! We have an unique step-by-step way of creating a care plan with each patient. We’ll work together to create a treatment plan based on your goals, budget, and concerns. We call it your Path To Health.

Once we tackle the first step in the Path to Health and we’ve gotten your immediate dental concerns under control, the next step is to Understand Each Other Fully. We want to know what’s important to you! Whether your main concern is the outward appearance of your smile or if your only goal is making sure your teeth last a lifetime, we are here to help. We start by listening and getting a thorough understanding of you and your unique needs. Our dentists, hygienists and dental assistants main goal is to get you on the path to health, and keep you there! Whether you are in need of emergency relief or it’s just been a while since you’ve seen the dentist, and really aren’t sure if there is an issue or not, we have appointments to fit every need.Find the Appointment That's Right For You:

  • Back on Track Appointment - Has it been a hot minute since you’ve been to the dentist? Take advantage of our $99 Back on Track Appointment which includes an Exam and Xrays
  • In Need of A Routine Cleaning? - Schedule your First Visit which typical includes a few essentials, a cleaning, exams and x-rays (when needed)
  • Wanting to Enhance Your Smile? - Does the appearance of your teeth have you lacking confidence? Schedule your Cosmetic/Invisalign Consultation today to find out how we can help you love your smile!

No Insurance, No Problem:

While we accept most insurances, one of the things that separates Renken Dentistry from the rest, is our Health Assurance memberships.

A Health Assurance membership is like dental insurance, but better. There is no claims process. No guessing if your treatment is covered. No application needed. The membership is directly with our practice so there is no third party determining your benefits. We saved our uninsured patients $2.2 million in 2024, even more than we saved them in 2023!

We’ll work with you to choose a plan with the benefits that match your needs. We have plans for all situations, and each member of your family or group can choose the plan that’s right for them. Ask about Health Assurance at your first appointment!
