02Why Loren

Dentistry with nothing hidden

Fourteen years on Holly Springs Avenue, one owner, zero production quotas. Here is what Loren does differently — in writing.

  • You see the plan before you feel a thing

    Every recommendation comes with the scan on screen, the options side by side, and the exact fee in writing. Nobody at Loren Dentistry has ever been paid on production quotas.

  • Specialists under one roof

    Implants, root canals, and complex cosmetic cases are handled in-house by board-certified specialists — no referral letters, no re-explaining your history across town.

  • Anxiety taken seriously

    Noise-cancelling headphones, weighted blankets, nitrous, and a hard rule: we stop the moment you raise a hand. Hundreds of our reviews are from people who avoided dentists for years.

  • On time, both directions

    Your appointment starts within ten minutes of the hour or your hygiene visit is free. We book real gaps between patients so nobody is rushed — including you.

04What to Expect

Four steps, no surprises

The whole arc of care — from the first click to — runs on one rule: you see everything before you decide anything.

  1. Book in two minutes

    Choose a time online or call the front desk. New patients are seen the same week — bring nothing but yourself; we transfer records for you.

  2. Scan & consultation

    A full digital scan, photos, and a conversation about what you actually want. You see everything we see, on a screen in front of you.

  3. A written plan, priced

    Options laid out side by side with exact fees, insurance estimates, and honest trade-offs. Take it home — there is never a same-day-decision push.

  4. Treatment & lifetime care

    Work is scheduled at your pace, checked at every visit after, and backed by a five-year warranty on crowns, veneers, and implant restorations.

Dr. Sherwani and Nicole were amazing during my recent dental procedure. They took the time to explain each step, answered my questions, and made me feel completely at ease. I truly appreciated their kindness and exceptional care!

I had another deep cleaning done 08/11/2026 which is not the most pleasant thing to have done, but the staff was very nice and the person that gave me the deep cleaning made it as pleasant as it could possibly be again.

10Questions

Asked in this lobby, answered here

The honest versions — costs, anxiety, insurance fights, and parking.

Do you take my insurance?

We accept most PPO dental plans and verify your exact benefits before your first appointment, so you see your out-of-pocket estimate in writing before any work is scheduled. Our coordinator files and, when needed, appeals claims on your behalf. If you have no insurance, the Loren Dentistry Smile Plan ($29/month) covers preventive care and discounts treatment 15%.

How soon can I get an appointment?

New patients are typically seen within the same week, and we hold two same-day slots each morning for urgent problems like a broken tooth or acute pain. Cosmetic consultations currently book about two weeks out.

I have serious dental anxiety. How do you handle that?

Gently and without judgment. We offer nitrous oxide, noise-cancelling headphones, weighted blankets, and extended appointment times, and we follow a strict raise-your-hand-and-we-stop rule. Many of our longest-standing patients arrived after a decade of avoiding dentists entirely.

What does a first visit cost?

Your first consultation and digital smile scan are free. A comprehensive new-patient exam with full digital X-rays and cleaning is without insurance, and every fee for any recommended treatment is quoted in writing before you commit to anything.

Do you treat children?

Yes — we are a family practice and see patients from age three up. Pediatric visits are shorter, slower-paced, and scheduled in the morning when kids do best. Sealants and fluoride are included in our preventive plans.

Are implants and root canals done in your office?

Yes. Our board-certified prosthodontist plans and restores implants in-house, and our endodontist performs microscope-guided root canal therapy on site. You keep one care team, one record, and one bill — no cross-town referrals.

Is your work guaranteed?

Crowns, veneers, and implant restorations carry: if one fails under normal use, we repair or remake it at no charge. Preventive visits are covered by our on-time guarantee — if we start more than ten minutes late, that hygiene visit is free.

Do you offer parking?

Yes — we offer validated garage or lot parking directly on-site, plus additional free short-term street parking nearby. The practice is also convenient to public transit for patients who prefer not to drive.
