I cannot say enough about the wonderful folks at Distinctive Smiles. I very much appreciate the up-to-date, reliable and attentive care I’ve come to expect from everyone there. I highly recommend them.
I followed my parents recommendations, as they were both patients at Distinctive Smiles. That was 30 years ago. I have stayed with them throughout all of those years for my dental years. Everyone there is personable and professional in …
I would recommend my Distinctive Smiles of Dublin to anyone. The front staff, hygienist and Dr. Afzal are always warm and friendly. I don’t dread going to the dentist as with other ones in the past.

Frequently Asked Questions
Interested in expanding your dental knowledge? The following FAQs cover a few of the topics that many of our patients tend to ask about. Remember, if you have a question that isn’t covered on this page, you’re more than welcome to speak to our team!
How Do I Find the Best Place to Get Dental Work Done?
Step one is to ask yourself, “What does my ideal dental practice look like?” There are several factors that could potentially make a dental practice right for you, such as:
- Whether it offers a specific kind of service you need, such as high-quality restorations for dental implants in Dublin.
- Whether it will take your dental insurance.
- Whether it is located close to where you live.
If you find a practice that has the traits you’re looking for, you can check out its websites to learn more about the training and experience of the dentists who work there. It’s also advisable to see if the practice has received any reviews on Google, Facebook, and Yelp. Seeing the sort of feedback the practice has received from past patients can give you an idea of what sort of experience you can expect during your own appointment.
How Can I Make a Same-Day Appointment with a Dentist?
If your mouth is in pain, it’s best to see a dentist as soon as possible so that they can help you find relief and protect your overall oral health. Our team is happy to offer same-day appointments for patients with dental emergencies. To schedule a same-day visit, all you need to do is pick up the phone and give our office a call. One of our team members will ask about your symptoms, give you basic first-aid advice, and take the necessary steps to set up your emergency appointment.
How Much Does a Check-Up and Cleaning Cost in Dublin, OH?
When you visit a dentist for a routine checkup and cleaning, the overall cost of your visit will be influenced by the location of the practice as well as other factors. If you have dental insurance, the amount that you pay out of pocket depends on the coverage that your plan provides for restorative care.
You can always count on our team to be transparent about the cost of our services. When you reach out to us to schedule a checkup and cleaning, feel free to voice any questions you might have regarding the financial side of your visit.
What Do You Do If You Can’t Afford a Dentist?
If you’re worried about being able to afford dental care, there are a few options worth considering:
- Dental Insurance: Taking advantage of your dental insurance benefits can go a long way toward making essential preventive and restorative dental services more budget-friendly.
- In-House Membership Plan: At our practice, we give uninsured patients the option of signing up for our in-house membership plan. In exchange for a monthly fee, you can enjoy discounts on your dental care without having to worry about insurance-related pitfalls such as deductibles and annual maximums.
- CareCredit Financing: Our team can help you apply for low to no interest financing through CareCredit so that you can divide the cost of your care into a series of monthly payments.
