Discover Exceptional Care for Your Smile
At Summerville Dentistry in Augusta, GA, our doctors and team are proud to welcome new patients of all ages. From your very first visit, our goal is to provide safe, gentle, and high-quality dental care in a comfortable environment. We understand that many patients feel anxious about visiting the dentist, and our team is dedicated to creating a relaxed experience where you feel heard and supported. During your visit, we will take time to learn about your dental concerns, answer your questions, and provide clear explanations of any recommended treatment. Our doctors believe that patient education and personalized care are the foundation of excellent dentistry.
Our goal is to help you feel confident about your oral health while providing the highest level of care possible. We are grateful for the trust our patients place in our team and look forward to helping you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.

Your First Visit
Your first appointment is focused on understanding your oral health and helping you feel comfortable with our team. During your visit, we will review your medical and dental history, take necessary X-rays, and perform a thorough examination of your teeth and gums. Our doctors will then discuss their findings with you and help create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and goals.
Your visit may include:
- Comprehensive oral examination
- Full-mouth digital X-rays
- Oral cancer screening
- Oral hygiene instruction
- Teeth cleaning
- One-on-one consultation with our dentist to discuss your needs, concerns, goals, and treatment options
Regular dental visits play an important role in maintaining a healthy smile. The American Dental Association recommends scheduling routine checkups and professional cleanings every six months to protect your teeth and gums. Most appointments last between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on your individual needs.
Insurance and Billing
We gladly help patients maximize their dental insurance benefits. Our team will file insurance claims as a courtesy and assist you with the paperwork needed to make the process simple and stress-free.
Summerville Dentistry maintains a limited number of in-network agreements because we believe dental care decisions should be made by you and our dentist rather than insurance companies. Many insurance plans offer valuable out-of-network benefits that can provide excellent coverage for dental treatment.
Before beginning treatment, we will review your insurance coverage and explain your estimated financial responsibility. Our goal is to ensure you clearly understand your benefits and treatment options.
Financing Options
We believe everyone deserves access to high-quality dental care. To help make treatment affordable, Summerville Dentistry offers several payment and financing options.
Our office accepts most major credit cards and dental insurance plans. We also provide flexible payment options to help patients manage treatment costs comfortably.
Our knowledgeable team is always available to answer questions about insurance coverage, financing, and payment arrangements. We are happy to work with you to create a plan that fits both your dental needs and your budget.
