How to choose between them
Because most listings here are individual clinicians at a shared address, comparing practice by practice is less useful than usual. When you call, ask how appointments are arranged at that address and who you would be seeing.
For routine care, 38 general dentistry listings is a large field for a city with 178 in total. Ask when a new patient can be seen, whether your exact plan is in network, and what an initial exam with x rays costs.
Specialist depth is modest despite the unusual breadth. Endodontics and prosthodontics have one listing each, and periodontics and oral surgery have two, so ask about waiting times rather than assuming a referral will be quick.
If you need something this neighborhood does not have
Pediatric dentistry is the only specialty with no listing in The Flatts. The nearest listed pediatric dentists are elsewhere in Morgantown, about nine tenths of a mile away, where 4 are listed. That is a short trip, though 4 is a small field, so call early.
Many general dentists see children as well, so it is worth asking the practices here before you assume you have to travel.
For more general options, Chestnut Ridge has 27 listed practices about a mile away and Tanglewood has 14 at six tenths of a mile. Braewick Woods has 10 at six tenths, and Suncrest and Chancery Hill have 7 each, at six tenths and 1.6 miles. Sabraton has 4 at 2.9 miles.
Insurance and paying
Our listings come from public registration data. It holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information, and none of the 51 practices here has published any of it, so this page tells you who is registered where and nothing more.
Ask whether the practice is in network with your specific plan rather than with the insurer generally, and at a shared address ask whether billing is handled centrally or by the individual clinician.
For treatment beyond a routine exam, ask for a written estimate with procedure codes before it starts and send it to your insurer for a written answer. Practices that claim their listing on this site can publish hours, prices and insurance participation themselves, which is the only way any of that appears here.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or pain that will not settle, call the general dentistry listings on the Medical Center drive first, then Van Voorhis Rd. Say clearly that you are in pain and can come immediately, since same day appointments usually come from cancellations.
Some symptoms need an emergency room rather than a dental appointment. Go to hospital if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down your neck, if you are having trouble breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever with facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop.
If nothing here can see you, search by distance at dentist directory. Several neighboring areas are within a mile.
