Our dental office was renovated recently to make it as comfortable and welcoming as possible. When you come to our reception area, you will notice our living green wall that is self-watering. It cleans the air in our office and we had so many people who complimented us on how fresh our office feels. You will also notice our bubbled water windows that give the office a smooth water sound and make people relax during their visits. You cannot ignore the smell of coffee when you are sitting in the reception area generated by the espresso machine that our patients love. We have a beverage station that has the espresso machine, boxed water, and healthy soft drinks. When you go to our treatment rooms, you will be given a comfort menu to choose from. Our dental chairs have a massage feature that you can try; we also have warm eye masks, noise-canceling headphones, roll-on essential oils, neck pillows, and much more.
Our dental office has been providing exceptional dental care to the Concord community since 1981. Dr.
Vandis built this dental office from scratch, and he designed it to be his dream dental office. We
are still seeing dental patients today who were originally patients of Dr. Vandis. Some of them were kids
back then, and now they have their own kids and grandkids. Dr. Hulshult then came in and joined Dr.
Vandis, where they worked together for a couple of years until Dr. Vandis retired. Dr. Hulshult
became the sole owner of the dental office and expanded the dental office. Dr. Homsi came in
and kept the ship moving, adding his own touches, making it his own, and expanding it to what it
currently is.

What Is the Best Way to Find a Cosmetic Dentist?
Plenty of dentists can perform cosmetic dental procedures, but some have more training in the field than
others. If your goal is to improve the appearance of your smile, it can help to look for a dentist who is
associated with an organization that provides advanced training for cosmetic dentistry.
Dr. Homsi happens to belong to one of these organizations: the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He
also offers a wide range of services for correcting aesthetic dental flaws, including veneers, metal-free
restorations, cosmetic dental bonding, professional teeth whitening, Invisalign clear aligners, and gum
recontouring.
Feel free to reach out to us if you’re interested in learning about how our team can help make the
smile of your dreams a reality.
How Do I Find the Best Place to Get Dental Work Done?
The best way to choose a dentist is to carefully consider the traits that matter most to you. Chances are
you want a practice that will take your insurance, has hours that work for your schedule, is located nearby,
and offers a variety of services beyond routine preventive care. Make sure you have a clear idea of what
you’re looking for so that you can narrow down the practice that’s right for you. Don’t
forget to take a look at the dentist’s credentials as well as the feedback that the practice has
received online.
How Much Does It Cost to Get a Tooth Pulled Without Insurance?
It’s difficult to give an exact answer to this question since there are a number of factors that need
to be taken into account, such as the complexity of the case, the number of teeth that need to be removed,
the possible use of sedation, and any related procedures. A reliable estimate for the cost of a tooth extraction can be provided once our team
has completed an examination of your mouth.
What Do You Do If You Can’t Afford a Dentist?
Paying for dental care is typically much easier if you have a reliable dental insurance plan. At Charm Smile Dental, we are
in-network with Delta Dental and can also file claims for other dental PPOs. Patients without insurance may
instead want to think about applying for financing. Third-party companies such as CareCredit and Lending
Club give you the option of breaking up the cost of your care, thus putting less of a strain on your budget.
How do you go to the dentist when you cannot afford it?
Going to the dentist without having the financial means can be challenging. However, sometimes going to the dentist early can be better both financially and from your health standpoint than waiting until the problems become worse. Adults missed 183 million hours of productivity time last year due to their own oral pain or unplanned dental visits.
There are several options to look into in order to get the proper dental care:
Look into community health centers in your area. They usually offer dental care at a reduced cost based on your income.
Some local dental offices offer free health care days for people who cannot afford it. Our office offers a free full mouth treatment to one person in need every quarter. Ask us about this program.
Many dentists offer payment plans that can make dental care affordable spreading the cost over a period of time
Paying your dental care using a credit card that offers a 12 month 0% APR payment option which makes getting the dental care you need practical.
Some local dentists offer discounts to specific groups such as seniors, veterans or prepayment discounts. Our office offers a 5% prepayment discount.
Some dental societies offer programs for low-income patients
How do most people choose a new dentist?
Choosing a new dentist can be tricky. Here are the most common ways people choose their dentists.
Family or friend referral: the best way to choose a dentist if your family or friends recommend that dentist. This means that your friends and family are happy with the dentist and they trust the team they go to based on good experiences and a great service.
Google reviews: Google reviews can offer a glimpse on the rating of the dental office in your area but it doesn’t tell the full story. Also, google reviews can be relative to other dental offices in the area. Usually dental offices who have frequent good reviews with a small number are better than dental offices who have a large number of reviews but are not frequent.
Insurance network: Some patients choose their providers from the insurance website. However, this doesn’t mean that the dentist you are going to is a good one or a bad one. It is recommended to research more to find out about the office that you are interested in choosing.
Community involvement: Some dental offices are active in the community and helping other local businesses. This is a positive sign that the dental office has a good mission supporting the community and providing great service to people.
Why can dentistry be so expensive?
High labor costs: Dentistry is a very labor-intensive business and it requires a lot of staff support that gets paid higher wages than other industries.
Being a dentist requires lots of years of education and usually dentists take loans with large amounts to be able to get their degrees.
Technology: In order to provide high quality dental work, dentists must invest hugely in technology which has high costs.
Materials: Dental materials are expensive and take a lot of money to develop them by the dental companies.
Liability and precise work: there is a big liability for any dental work done so dentists try to cover their bases. Plus, dentistry is very hands-on and can be very demanding.

time to perform dental procedures and we use the best materials so our work can stand the test of time.
All Under One Roof
Our doctors and specialists invested time and money in training and keeping up to date in order to be able to
perform all types of dental procedures so our patients do not have to go to multiple offices/specialists and pay
consultation fees in order to get the care they need. We have a wide selection of services so our patients can
stay with the team they trust and not go somewhere they have never been to before.
We Take Care Of The Environment
most of our products are recyclable. If you come to our office, you will notice that we only give bamboo
toothbrushes, bamboo charcoal floss in glass containers, bamboo soft picks, and boxed water in paper containers.
We reduced the amount of plastic usage drastically and we are working hard to reduce it more.
We Give Back To The Community
There are so many people in our state that cannot afford dental care and it is holding them back from pursuing
their dreams. Many people do not apply to jobs because they cannot smile and they are embarrassed by their
teeth. We are on a mission to give those people their smile back. Every quarter, Dr. Homsi gives a patient who
cannot afford dental care their smile back.
Dental Bridge
Whether you are missing one tooth or four teeth consecutively, a dental bridge may be the solution you’ve been
looking for! If that’s the case, we will custom-make your entire restoration to guarantee it looks and feels
completely natural. Plus, it will be secured in place with two dental crowns that are crafted from only the best
dental materials, ensuring it’s equally as secure.
Have you been waiting for the day when you could straighten your teeth without the metal? It’s here! With
Invisalign®, we can guide your teeth and bite into proper alignment with clear, comfortable aligners. Not only
that, but we use no-mess digital impressions and we welcome dental insurance and flexible financing, so pursuing
your healthiest, happiest smile is convenient too!
In short, you deserve a smile that you absolutely love. If you aren’t thrilled with yours because of chips,
cracks, gaps, and other imperfections, schedule a consultation with Dr. Homsi! That way, he can learn all about
your smile goals, conduct a comprehensive oral exam, and review your treatment options. Then, we can create a
custom treatment plan designed to make your dream smile a reality.
Fixing one cosmetic imperfection might seem easy, but what if you’re struggling with several? Thanks to veneers,
that’s also easy! Crafted from high-quality dental materials, like porcelain, this cosmetic dental service
allows us to conceal everything from minor gaps to permanent discoloration in as little as two visits. Plus, if
cared for properly, the results can last for 10+ years!
Dental implants have gained a lot of attention over the years. Since they are the only tooth-replacement solution
that can replace the root of your tooth, stimulate your jawbone, and last for 30+ years, it’s not hard to see
why! We’re proud to offer the entire dental implant process in-house so our patients don’t have to drive all
over town to get their complete, healthy smile back.
Are your pearly whites no longer living up to their name? If so, it’s time to take the next step: schedule a
consultation with Dr. Homsi. Once he pinpoints the cause of the discoloration, assesses the health of your
teeth and gums, and learns all about your smile goals, he can determine if you’re a good candidate for teeth
whitening. If the answer is “yes,” you’ll be happy to know we offer both in-office and take-home treatments!
