Dentist – Casper, WY

What level of education is required to be a dentist?

Becoming a dentist requires years of hard work, including three years of in-classroom and hands-on training at one of only 67 accredited dental schools in the US. Some dentists, like our very own Dr. Prach, go above and beyond to ensure their patients receive the absolute best care. For example, she completed a continuing education course on oral surgery in Guatemala, and she has earned the “Qualified Dentist Designation” from the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. Plus, she’s working on achieving Diplomate Status with the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine and has maintained active memberships with several professional organizations, including the Wyoming Dental Association!

How do I get emergency dental care?

For toothaches, damaged restorations, and other common dental injuries, your first call should be to our Casper dental office. If you are experiencing potentially life-threatening symptoms, however, then you should call 911 or head to the ER. Although hospitals don’t typically have dentists on-staff (and, therefore, won’t be able to provide the dental care you need), they will be able to alleviate your pain and provide you with the medical attention that’s necessary.

How much does a dental checkup & cleaning cost in Casper?

The cost of dental checkups and cleanings varies depending on a few factors, including whether or not you have dental insurance. After all, providers typically cover 100% of the cost of preventive care. So, there’s a good chance you won’t have to pay anything out-of-pocket! As always, if you have any questions for us regarding the cost, don’t hesitate to give us a call. We can provide you with further information and answer any questions you have prior to your appointment.
