Dr. Vincenzo Artino, or “Dr. Vinnie” as our patients call him, has been a caregiver for as long as he can remember. When he was younger, he was a certified nurse's aid who diligently looked after his sister living with quadriplegic cerebral palsy. Since becoming a dentist, he has brought that same passion and tenderness to serving his nearby patient's smiles with everything from preventive care to state-of-the-art dental implants. At Lakewood Complete Dentistry, you’ll feel taken care of from head to toe, and you’ll have a beautiful, healthy smile to show for it.

Part of serving our patients is answering their questions about dental care. We’re sure that there are a few things you’ll want to know before you schedule an appointment at Lakewood Dentistry, and we want to make getting the answers you need easy! Check out the frequently asked questions listed below and see if the information covered addresses your concerns. If not, we invite you to contact us and speak with one of our team members; they can’t wait to help!
There are many dentists in and around the Lakewood area; you can use Google to find one that’s located near your home. Of course, while location is an important factor, there are other variables to consider as well. For example, does the practice in question take your dental plan? Our practice accepts Delta Dental, Guardian, certain Humana plans, and a variety of other insurance providers; if you belong to one of these plans, you can save money on your dental care by choosing our office. Think carefully about what is important to you before deciding on a practice.
In addition to considering insurance, location, and similar details, you also need to think about your family’s dental needs. Some might only need routine checkups, others might require periodontal treatment for gum disease, and some might even need to have their teeth replaced with dentures. At Lakewood Complete Dentistry, we take a comprehensive approach to dental care, as our variety of services let us tailor our treatment plans to fully meet all our patients’ needs. Reach out to us to explore our services. You may also want to visit our office before bringing your family for an appointment so that you can get a firsthand feel for the atmosphere and determine whether it’s a place your loved ones would feel comfortable.
Not all practices accept child patients. In fact, many specify that they only see patients over a certain age. At Lakewood Complete Dentistry, though, we’re happy to see all kinds of children, from toddlers to teenagers! The advantage of having a practice that accepts patients of all ages is that your little ones can continue visiting us for great care even after they’ve reached adulthood. We’ll go above and beyond in making sure your child feels comfortable and safe at our office during their routine appointments.
Yes, same-day appointments are available for patients who need urgent care. This includes dental emergencies such as knocked-out teeth and severe, persistent dental pain. When you call us describing symptoms that require urgent attention, we can arrange for an appointment as soon as possible. It’s generally better to call a dental office instead of the emergency room for a (non-life threatening) dental emergency since a dentist is more likely to have the training and equipment to deal with issues affecting the teeth and gums.
