Without dental insurance in Johnson City, cash or a yearly membership can help you pay for care among the 90 listed dentists; one office posts a $449 annual plan for new patients. That plan includes 2 exams, listed X-rays and 20% off diagnosed treatment, and costs $399 for established patients. On West Watauga Avenue, cash and health-care credit are payment choices, with loan approval and interest terms set by the lender. If you have TennCare, covered adult dental care that is medically necessary costs you nothing, so your assigned Dental Home could save you a private bill.

Cash, office memberships and credit can fund a Johnson City dental visit. Blue Plum Dental at 216 W Watauga Avenue accepts cash, HSA/FSA funds, CareCredit and Alphaeon Credit. Credit involves borrowing; the lender sets the terms and must approve the loan.
Johnson City Smiles posts the yearly plan described above. It also includes an emergency exam and X-ray. The office does not let you combine this plan with dental insurance or financing. That rule matters if you need a loan to pay for treatment.
ETSU's exams are free, and cleaning costs $20 for people who can afford to pay. The ETSU Health Dental Hygiene Clinic sees the public at Lamb Hall, 201 Ross Drive, room 134; its dental line is 423-439-4514. Students work under a licensed dentist during school terms. The first visit checks what care you need.
For a county-health appointment, the Washington County dental-services notice says the department has no dentist on staff. TennCare members can use Renaissance's assigned Dental Home for ongoing care and specialist referrals.
Hometown Dental treats toothaches, broken teeth and damaged fillings or crowns. Its West Walnut Street office is at 401 W Walnut. When arranging urgent dental care, describing the injury or pain helps the office decide what visit you need. A diagnosis guides the next step in emergency treatment.
Mountain View Endodontics treats root canals at 2335 Knob Creek Road, suite 101. Sturgill Endodontics on Peoples Street also treats cracked teeth and difficult tooth pain. These root-canal specialists focus on saving teeth. Ballad Health, which operates Johnson City Medical Center, directs medical emergencies such as breathing trouble or bleeding that won't stop to 911.
14 Johnson City listings identify implant care. For dental implants, the number of missing teeth and available bone shape the treatment. An oral surgeon or gum specialist may handle surgery within that plan.
Associated Oral & Implant Surgeons checks for infection and the need to remove teeth or graft bone before pricing implant treatment. Its Johnson City address is 508 Princeton Road, suite 204. On North Roan, Greg Moore also treats missing teeth. Farther along that street, Lawson Hoover offers both full and partial dentures.
Knob Creek has children's care as well as adult general dentistry. At 2333 Knob Creek Road, suite 12, Johnson City Pediatric Dentistry sees babies, older children and teens. Its care includes children with special needs. Johnson & O'Dell practices general dentistry at 2335 Knob Creek, suite 107.
At 801 Sunset Drive, Allison Williams practices orthodontics in suite E5; Makensey Campbell provides general dentistry in building A, suite 5. A child's dental exam addresses tooth health, while an orthodontic assessment addresses bite and tooth position. Sunset's offices offer both kinds of visit for families considering braces.
28 Johnson City dentists are rated 4.9 to 5.0 on Google. The review count beside a rating helps you judge how much feedback supports it. For repeat visits, Johnson City Transit's Gold After route serves Knob Creek; Orange West serves Med Tech and West Market, and Purple Til serves West Walnut.
Apex Dentistry publishes its gum-care membership at 1303 Sunset Drive, suite 1. Aspen's office is at 520 W Oakland Avenue, suite 6. Patients returning to University Dental Associates on West Walnut should confirm the current office name and treating dentist when booking.
Jonesborough extends the search west, and Elizabethton east. Kingsport, Bristol and Greeneville add regional choices when a specialist or plan match requires a longer trip.
ETSU Health's dental-hygiene clinic provides free treatment for adults over 55. Sending X-rays to your dentist costs $25. Other patients who can afford to pay are charged $20 for cleaning. The clinic treats adults and children, and its students need time for their work to be checked by supervisors.
TennCare includes root canals among its adult dental benefits when the service is medically necessary and covered. Renaissance manages the benefit and assigns a Dental Home for routine care and referrals. Your Johnson City office can check the proposed treatment with the plan before you agree to a private charge.
Hometown Dental's West Walnut office treats toothaches and broken teeth, and Blue Plum on Watauga accepts cash. Calling with the tooth's symptoms helps arrange the right exam. A tooth that needs specialist treatment can lead to Mountain View or Sturgill Endodontics; the exam and the actual treatment have their own charges.
Associated Oral & Implant Surgeons prices implants after assessing the number of teeth, remaining bone, infection and any extractions needed. Grafting or a sinus lift adds work before an implant can be placed. A price for a single replacement tooth and a plan for an entire denture therefore cover different treatment.
ETSU Health posts sealants at $15 per tooth. Children with TennCare have medically necessary dental benefits until age 21, including sealants. Braces require a qualifying severe bite problem under the program's rules; a wish for straighter teeth alone doesn't qualify. A child's dentist can discuss prevention and whether an orthodontic assessment is needed.
Apex Dentistry on Sunset Drive lists a $150 yearly periodontal upgrade to its membership for up to 4 maintenance visits. Its adult base plan costs $450 a year. This is that office's price for ongoing care; your exam determines whether you need initial gum treatment before maintenance and what that work costs.
Lawson Hoover lists Saturday hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 4729 North Roan Street, suite 1. The practice lists dentures, partials, crowns and bridges, so a call about the work you need lets the office confirm the right visit and time.
Yes. CareCredit, offered by Blue Plum in Johnson City, can charge interest from the purchase date if a deferred-interest balance remains after the offer ends. Minimum monthly payments may leave a balance. The lender's terms set the payoff deadline and approval rules, so the total repayment matters as much as the monthly amount.
