“It’s very convenient to have Botox offered at my dentist’s office, because I do come here periodically. I have a relationship with him, I trust him and I know he’s a professional.”
“They make me feel very comfortable. The assistants always hold my hand. They’re just very, very sweet here.”
“I got married about six months later and looking back on the pictures, they’re just amazing. My smile was perfect…”
I would highly recommend this team. They go above and beyond to be sure you understand your dental care and needs. They are thorough in addressing any and all questions (which I came with a lot of!). Excellent care and friendly environment!”
Complete Dental Care is a great place to go take care of your teeth. The dental care is exceptional because Dr. Kostas and his outstanding support staff. Every visit is like seeing old friends and catching up since my last dental appointment. I have never been disappointed with the dental care, and I have been a patient over twenty years. To me, Dr. Kostas is the T. Brady of dentistry."
This is rare but the best thing ever!! Dr. Kostas and his staff are able to cater to the dental needs of the whole family. Not just basic fillings etc. but they can take care of everything from root canals to implants as well so you don’t need to go to different dentists for service. They are professional and personable. My 7yr old is actually excited to go to the dentist and our 15yr old approves whole heartedly. My husband and I are glad we found them and would recommend them to anyone."
Dr. Kostas is the best dentist who have ever treated me. I have been to at least three others in the area, The Covid safety precautions are outstanding (office ventilation has been redone for a safe environment) and the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and always ready to assist you. Have recommended to several others - ALL have been as pleased as I am."
After several months of experiencing pain in a tooth without any relief or resolution from seeing another dentist I was referred to Dr. Kostas at Complete Dental Care by my parents who cannot say enough great things about Dr. Kostas and his practice. My first appointment at the office was a great experience. The staff is very friendly and put me at ease right away. Additionally, the office is clean and runs efficiently - I was squeezed in for an appointment after just calling one day before and was seen right away. I explained the pain I was experiencing to Dr. Kostas and he immediately took the right steps (an exam of the tooth, X-ray and photos) to determine the issue. After going through months of being told by a prior provider that there wasn’t a noticeable reason behind the pain, Dr. Kostas swiftly identified the cause of the pain and explained my options to me. He clearly articulated the cause, my options, and took the time to answer all of my questions. I left feeling extremely at ease knowing there is a resolution in sight. Without hesitation I will be switching dental providers to Dr. Kostas and highly recommend his office to anyone in search of a new dentist. Everyone I met was kind, professional, and organized. Thank you to the team!"

This allows you to achieve beautiful results without having to undergo years of treatment.

Although routine checkups and cleanings are one of the most common dental treatments, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to price. That’s because there are several factors that need to be considered to give you an accurate answer, including whether or not you have dental insurance and if we need to take X-rays. If you’re looking for a general price range, however, then it may be helpful to know that the average cost in the United States is between $200 and $350. Again, you may end up paying significantly less if you are insured or are a member of our in-house plan.
Since we book appointments weeks and months in advance, we may not be able to accommodate last-minute appointments for routine preventive care.

It’s true; extensive restorative care can be costly. However, these treatments are typically only necessary when dentistry has been neglected, like a patient not visiting their dentist every six months for a checkup and cleaning. In short, if you want to keep your dental care affordable, preventive dentistry should be a top priority.
It’s also worth noting that our team at Complete Dental Care offers multiple financing solutions, including dental insurance, periodic special offers, and our own in-house plan. As a result, we can accommodate nearly every budget. So, if you have a question about the price of preventive, restorative, or cosmetic dentistry, please don’t hesitate to let our team know.
Before you select a dentist for dental implants, you should be aware that not all practices handle the procedure exactly the same way. Some dentists take a team-based approach; this means they will handle the delivery of the final restoration, but they will refer you to an outside specialist to have the implant posts surgically placed. On the other hand, some dentists are able to perform both of these steps themselves.
Here at Complete Dental Care, we offer start-to-finish dental implant procedures. That means you can have every step of the dental implant process performed under one roof instead of needing to drive across town to see an unfamiliar specialist. On top of that, Dr. Kostas is particularly knowledgeable when it comes to dental implant procedures; he has earned Fellowship status with the American Dental Implant Association, and he holds membership with the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.
It’s best to call 911 if you ever have an emergency that puts your life at immediate risk. However, there are many dental emergencies – such as toothaches, knocked-out teeth, and cracked teeth – that are not considered life-threatening but nevertheless require prompt attention. These types of issues generally can’t be properly treated at the emergency room; you will instead need to schedule an appointment with your dentist.
Our team is equipped to handle all kinds of urgent dental issues. Please call us if you’re suffering from a dental emergency. We’ll make time to see you as soon as we can, and we can give you advice for keeping the problem under control in the meantime.
Not all tooth extractions are exactly the same. Some are more complex due to the location of the tooth that needs to be removed. Others might involve multiple teeth. These are just a couple of the factors that can end up influencing the overall cost of the tooth extraction process. An estimate will be created once we have examined your mouth, so you won’t have to commit to the tooth extraction process without an idea of what the cost will look like.
Becoming a dentist requires many years of study. After earning a bachelor’s degree, one needs to spend four years at an accredited dental school in order to earn a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). Only individuals who have achieved a DMD or DDS can call themselves dentists.
It should be noted that all dentists are expected to pursue continuing education even after earning their degrees. Dentists who wish to stay licensed must regularly complete a certain number of continuing education hours.
