“My daughter and I have our appointments on the same day and time. We are both coming from work and school, so we appreciate the consideration of our schedules. Going to the dentist can cause anxiety for some, but I am pleased with the quality of care we are given in a non-judgmental way. Thumbs up to Dr. Naik and her staff :)”

“I have been going to Dr Naik for years now. Lisa has been my hygienist, and I love her! Everyone is great and personable. Highly recommend Dr. Naik to anyone looking for a dentist. Her office is on the corner of Graham Street and Court Street, right off the I75 expressway. Easy in and easy out with plenty of parking!”

Tina, Office ManagerHigh-quality dental care shouldn’t have to be financially out of reach for patients and families in need. Dr. Naik happily accepts state-funded dental insurance like Dentaquest, Michigan Healthy Plan, and Delta EPO, as well as PPO dental insurances. If you don’t have current coverage, affordable financing can be arranged to make your treatment budget-friendly. Any questions? Tina will be happy to lend a helping hand!
The first step in getting emergency dental care is to call Dr. Naik’s office as soon as possible and let one of our team members assist you. If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 immediately.
Most hospital emergency rooms, mobile ERs, and urgent care clinics are not equipped to handle dental emergencies. Thus, should you go to one of these establishments, you are unlikely to be treated.
In most cases, you can expect to get a same-day appointment with Dr. Naik during regular business hours, but please call us as soon as possible for availability.
Dental emergencies are often an indicator of bigger dental problems, and an important sign to get back into the habit of regular dental visits. These can help you save time, money, and of course, your natural teeth!
The fastest and easiest way to make a same-day appointment is to call us directly. Sending an email or filling our webform will not get you an answer as quickly. Furthermore, a phone call allows our team to better understand your situation and ensure that you are given the best care as soon as possible.
The goal of a same-day appointment is to assess the situation, eliminate any cause of pain, and finalize your treatment plan for a future date. In some cases, Dr. Naik may be able to provide more advanced treatment during a same-day appointment, but this is not guaranteed.
The cost of a dental check-up and cleaning can vary depending on several factors, including geography and your individual oral health.
Each check-up and cleaning should begin with a patient health history, as well as a discussion of any concerns you may have. It should also include a thorough examination by Dr. Naik, as well as a professional cleaning, X-rays, and an oral cancer screening.
The average cost of a dental check-up and cleaning across the United States is between $200 and $350. If you have dental insurance, the fees for this (including any out-of-pocket copays) are negotiated with us by your insurance company.

All dentists in the United States must earn either a Doctor of Dental Sciences (DDS) or a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from one of the country’s 67 Accredited dental schools.
Acceptance into dental school requires the student to have earned a bachelor's degree with high marks in a science and math-heavy major.
Dental school is an additional three-year education which combines classroom and hands-on learning.
Following dental school, some dentists continue their education by earning one of twelve specializations recognized by the American Dental Association (ADA). These require an additional three or more years of schooling.
Furthermore, all dentists are required to complete a minimum amount of continuing education hours each year to maintain their license to practice dentistry.
