Heidi C. replied:
Tahoe Family Dentists! Great people too.
Flip W. replied:
Thanks Heidi for info. I have gone to Dr Salm before and he gave me a great discount, I would use him when ever I need his services.
My son has an infection in a molar. Is on antibiotics but is thinking the tooth needs to be pulled. He has MediCal. Is there a dentist up here who will pull a tooth?
Melinda A. replied:
Don't use the one in kings beach. They will pull all his teeth DDS Ortega on Ski Run has reasonable rates to my understanding & won't butcher him. That's if he can't get off the hill
Allison M. replied:
Talked with Dr Wesfall's office this morning and explained the situation and was told they would get back to us, but they weren't even answering their phones later and never returned a message. Will try Dr Ortega in the morning. He's in so much pain but hoping antibiotics kick in soon so he can consider a root canal over extraction.
Paula P. replied:
Have you tried putting a clove on the gum by the tooth that hurts for the pain? It will numb it and yes try Dr. Ortega in the morning. My friend had a broken wisdom tooth and they got her right in
Erica C. replied:
Somewhere over the Sierras, is where you find help??? Dentists won't take Medical for services or care in Tahoe for Tahoe Residents. All the Dentists stopped excepting Medical for care and services years ago in Tahoe!!! Oh and the price scale for dental services rendered per Dentist or Dental Business, is completely arbitrary. Isn't that special??? Not!!!
Jamie A. replied:
Kings beach - 530 546 1970 they accept medi cal
Kimberly K. replied:
Sierra smiles.. dr. Bocchi pulled sons and 2 for daughter
Tracina L. replied:
April Westfall she has an office over by DMV she's a medical dentist
Paula P. replied:
April Westfall isn't taking any new patients unless it's an emergency. Definitely try her, otherwise the other option is in Placerville, Preventative Dental, 530-622-3430. Dr. Han is actually really good and will get you in quick.
Kimberly S. replied:
DR Westfall is great she pulled 2 of my husbands teeth. She got him in quick two.
Does anyone know of a dentist in south lake that will take payments unfortunately when you work in this country you get Obama care that you pay for but no dental help...
Kristen K. replied:
Sheri Benka care credit works for dental and even pets if you have any. Your amount depends on your credit.
France C. replied:
Dr. Ortega took payments but they were $1000 per month dental work is so expensive:(
Nataly G. replied:
DO NOT GO TO Dr. Ortega!!!!! A lot of people have gone to her and don't like her, not only is she super expensive but she does horrible dental work!! She messed up my sisters teeth and charged her over $6,000! I go with Tahoe family dentistry by Barton hospital with Dr. Cerceo. He is awesome and they took payments. I believe if you pay on time and are constant then they will do it. But please DO NOT go to Dr. Ortega unless you want to be in debt forever and not get your teeth fixed.

FYI - you can get Delta Dental plans on your own and its not that expensive https://www.deltadentalins.com/

Lisa C. replied:
Dr Bocci is wonderful! Not sure what he takes?
Lara L. replied:
High Sierra Dental on Ski Run is great and has an excellent in-house dental program. Local and dog friendly!
Mark P. replied:
There is Preventive dental in Placerville. Be warned medical dentists get paid for extractions so they will always tell you; "Looks like it has to come out." Good luck! My advice try to qualify for care credit, ask a dentist up here if they accept it and how to apply, without it I probably wouldn't have my teeth.
Kathy Y. replied:
I had to use Care Credit, came in handy with no interest for a bit.
Kathy Y. replied:
Call Tahoe Fracture, ask the receptionist. Of course I used them last year. Dr. Orr did my knee 3 times since 1998.
Tahoe dental arts. They accept care credit no payments

Tahoe Dental Arts is the best affordable dentist in town.
Jaime W. replied:
Really happy with all my work so far at https://www.facebook.com/427069807351545Lake Tahoe Dental. They take Care Credit with no interest. They also have a monthly plan that covers xrays, cleanings & apts with discounts on major work.
Ok not approved for carecredit crap and no dental insurance anyone recommend a dentist that accepts payment plans with bad credit

While you are looking for a solution to your issue, you might consider researching oil pulling. I know it sounds weird, but it frickin works. I can speak from experience. Here's an article to get you started, but I hope you'll take a further look. Best of luck...tooth pain and infections are no joke. Take care. http://www.earthclinic.com/cures/tooth_abscess7.html

I go to Dr Wenck on skirun. He's good.
Cheleena H. replied:
Dr Cassidy in the keys did good for me! Filled 2 cavities for around $500. Which wasn't a bad price considering I called around to a lot of people. I'm in the same boat as you, medical with no one up here taking it.
Rob C. replied:
Thanks for all the help everyone. To follow through, Dr. Chamberlain is not taking any new patients currently, and the dentist offices I talked to referred me to Tahoe Oral Surgery Center. TOS was able to get me in with Dr. Rachel Appelblatt and she did a fantastic job with the wisdom tooth removal. The only painful part was the price, although it was still reasonable and they did offer a small discount for paying cash. I highly recommend Dr. Appelblatt and her staff, all were friendly and professional.
Robert D. replied:
Dr. Yamaoka is a good dentist and a good guy, I'm sure he'd probably work with you on a payment plan.
Jessica B. replied:
Preventive Dental in Placerville
Allison M. replied:
Dr Kathy Jones, Emerald Bay Dentistry, is wonderful. She really cares about your oral health. However, she doesn't take MediCal. Have to go to Placerville. But if you decide to stay at the Lake talk to Kathy Jones about a payment plan.
Kimberly S. replied:
DR Westfall across from dmv here in South lake tahoe takes Medi cal
Ok so I'm looking for a good dentist that takes medical .. Any suggestions ?

I can't help with a good one, but whatever you do, DO NOT go to Dr Han at Preventative Dental Care in Placerville. That place is absolutely terrible.
Kim R. replied:
Dr. Westfall just starting accepting medical. They have an office and mobile clinic. Haven't tried her yet but we can an apt this week. 530-318-5034
Dr chamberlain is THE best! He's caring gentle and a genuine great man. When I I was Pregnant I was getting the calcium sucked from me for my baby and no one cared how much pain I was in: he did. I filled out the credit app but he knew I was poor and waived my fee! I have never come across someone so CARING IN HEALTHCARE

Does anyone know of a dentist in SL or even Carson/Nevada that doesn't charge an arm and a leg for a procedure?
The only catch is that I'm not covered by insurance right...
