Before you book

Five-minute checklist before you call

Federal data tells you a dentist exists and is enumerated. It does not confirm insurance acceptance, current availability, or office fit. Use this list when you call so the visit isn’t a surprise.

  1. Confirm insurance & out-of-pocket cost

    • Do you accept my exact insurance plan? (give the carrier, plan name, and member ID)
    • Are you accepting new Healthy Louisiana patients right now?
    • What is the out-of-pocket cost I should expect for the type of visit I need?
    • If you are out of network for me, can you bill my insurer or only me?
  2. Verify the dentist & availability

    • Is Sterling Roberts the dentist who will see me, or another provider in the practice?
    • Are you accepting new patients? When is the next available appointment?
    • Will the same dentist handle follow-up visits, or rotate?
  3. Verify the license yourself

    Search the Louisiana State Board of Dentistry license-lookup to confirm the license is active and in good standing — federal records do not show state-level discipline. Open the Louisiana State Board of Dentistry site →

  4. Match office services to your needs

    • Do you offer emergency or same-day appointments? After-hours number?
    • What languages do your front desk and clinical staff speak?
    • Is the office wheelchair-accessible? Any accommodations available on request?
    • Do you offer sedation options for anxious patients (nitrous, oral, IV)?
    • How do you handle a young child’s first dental visit, and can a parent stay in the room?

Ready to call? Have your insurance card and a list of symptoms or visit reasons in front of you.

About pediatric dentists

What is a pediatric dentist?

A pediatric dentist (sometimes called a pedodontist) specializes in the dental care of infants, children, and teens, including kids with special health-care needs. Their offices are designed for small patients, and they're trained in behavior management, sedation appropriate for kids, and developmental issues like early childhood caries and tooth-eruption problems.

Training. After dental school, a pediatric dentist completes a 2-year postdoctoral residency in pediatric dentistry. Many are board-certified through the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.
