Insurance policies generally cover only a portion of the total treatment cost. Unless other arrangements have been made, we ask that you pay your portion of the bill at the time of treatment.
A dental cleaning is a professional cleaning you receive from a dentist or dental hygienist. Most dental cleanings take only between 25 and 30 minutes. Cleanings should be performed every six months to prevent excessive plaque buildup. Plaque left untreated can lead to unhealthy gums and tooth decay.

Dr. Amethyst is wonderful! Took the time to say hello and catch up before she jumped in. Rocksand took care of my xrays and assisted with the crown. Love how smoothly everyone works as a team and is so happy! Makes the visit so pleasant :)

I HATE going to the dentist. But Dr. Rice and the staff has been so incredibly helpful and kind. Thank you so much for seeing me on such short notice and helping me with my options. 5 stars isn't enough.

It was my first dentist appointment in maybe 10yrs. Everyone was extremely nice and out going, Amy and Stephanie took really good care of me. For that amount of time, it was painless. Stephanie was careful and paid attention to my comfort level. Dr. Rice was quick efficient professional and delicate. Overall I'm feeling great about my new dentist office.

It was my first visit here at the office and I can say the ladies in the front were very approaching, very sweet calling me by my name, greeted me saying hi and thanking me for coming to their office and so on. Let’s just say you don’t get that at a lot of dentist , you end up getting the rude ladies thinking they are to good to greet you. The lady that called me in the back was so sweet and caring, very open to all the questions I had and being very friendly and went step by step what she was doing so I understood what and why she was doing it. My cleaning experience here was awesome. Her

I am always very satisfied with my visit to Turlock Family Dentistry. Dr Ishaya helped me out and made the visit very pleasant I needed to get a shot because of a old filling that fell out and I didn’t feel any pain. Totally recommend!

Our first visit to Turlock Family Dentistry. My daughter had visits to other dentist offices and this was the first time she actually complemented on going. She really felt comfortable. She also said that they were all very friendly and informative. So glad we chose Turlock Family Dentistry! Thank you 😊

My crown cracked. They got me in the same day & were able to give me a temporary crown. Will only be one week till my permanent one comes in. The dentist & dental assistant we’re very nice & accommodating to my health care needs. I’d recommend to all my family & friends.
