We are happy to welcome you.

Come in, get comfortable, and tell us what would make dental care feel easier. We will guide you through the rest.

A warm welcome for new patients at Uptown Dentistry
Come on in

A comfortable start, from the moment you arrive.

You will be greeted by a team that is genuinely glad to see you. Your first visit is unhurried, conversational, and centered on what matters to you.

1. Paperwork, done early

We send your forms ahead of time so your visit starts on time. Bring your insurance card, photo ID and a list of medications.

2. A thorough exam

Digital X-rays, intraoral photos, full gum charting, a check of every tooth and restoration, and an oral cancer screening.

3. A real conversation

Dr. Tajalli walks you through what she found using your own images, then asks what you want from your smile.

4. Your written plan

You leave with treatment prioritized into urgent, recommended and optional, plus a clear cost estimate including insurance.

Clear answers about benefits and costs, before care begins.

New patient questions

How long is the first visit?

Plan on about 60 to 90 minutes with Dr. Tajalli herself. That usually includes your exam, X-rays and a cleaning in the same appointment.

Do you accept my insurance?

We accept many PPO plans and can verify your benefits. Call us with your plan details and our team will help you understand your coverage before treatment begins.

What if I do not have insurance?

We offer straightforward self-pay pricing, CareCredit financing, and in-house financing for select treatments, so larger work can be spread into manageable payments.

What are your office hours?

Monday through Thursday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. Saturday visits are available by appointment. We are closed Friday and Sunday.

Is parking easy?

Yes. We are at 4900 Woodway Dr., Suite 730, with free covered garage parking, so you never arrive wet or circling the block.

Can my whole family be seen the same day?

Yes, and we encourage it. Back-to-back family appointments save an entire trip.

I have not been to a dentist in years. Is that a problem?

Not at all, and you will not get a lecture. We start with an exam and build a plan in stages you are comfortable with.

What is your cancellation policy?

We ask for 48 hours notice so we can offer the time to someone waiting, especially for emergencies.
