Our FAQS

Yes! We’re proud to be a family-friendly dental office that can accommodate smiles at every stage of development, and our big menu of available services features several options that are perfect for little teeth, including dental sealants, fluoride treatment, custom mouthguards, tooth-colored fillings, and much more.

Every patient’s circumstances and goals are different, which means that it’s basically impossible for there to be a service that’s truly perfect in all cases. That said, whenever possible, Dr. Martinez recommends dental implants for tooth replacement because of their exceptional longevity, esthetic quality, and health benefits! This modern service faithfully replicates every part of your tooth’s natural structure, leading to strong, seamless results.

No. At Martinez Dentistry, we’re happy to provide every stage of the dental implant process – including the surgical placement of the implants themselves – right here in our Alexandria, IN dental office. This saves you valuable time and helps you stay comfortable with doctors and team members you already trust.

Absolutely! Our dental office offers several cosmetic dentistry services that are specifically designed to elevate the physical appearance of teeth, including professional teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, metal-free restorations, and much more. During an initial appointment, one of our dentists will sit down with you and go over your unique goals in further detail so that he can recommend the option that best represents the gorgeous smile you see in your future.

We certainly do. Whenever you contact us for help with a serious toothache, a fracture, or a knocked-out tooth, our team will make time as soon as possible for an emergency appointment. In many cases, we can even provide relief on the same day as your initial call! Don’t wait – call us now here in Alexandria or Indianapolis.

Bleeding in any form is typically not a good sign. The most likely explanation is that you’re experiencing periodontal/gum disease, which is a common infection that starts out mild but can quickly grow to threaten your healthy smile. If you notice oral bleeding on a regular basis, contact Martinez Dentistry to schedule an appointment. We can review your current oral health and prescribe more frequent cleanings if needed to protect your smile.

We accept both in-network and out-of-network dental plans. Call us with your insurance information to see if we take it.

At least two dental checkups are needed every year to protect your teeth and gums from the buildup of plaque and tartar. These visits also provide us with an opportunity to find small cavities and early gum disease so that we can begin treatment as early as possible.

Why Our Patients Love Martinez Dentistry

Am a new patient with Dr. Martinez. Was instantly a good vibe with his staff and immediately felt at home. Dr. Martinez as well makes you feel very comfortable and I feel especially comfortable with his knowledge and thorough nature...

Greg N.

Everything was great! Honest, efficient and on time... Update. After my 5th visit and a tooth extraction, I am still amazed by their efficiency, kindness and honesty. After going through four different dentists since I've been in Indianapolis, I am truly grateful...

I highly recommend Martinez Dentistry! Everyone is so nice. Pam, the hygienist does a great job cleaning my teeth and is gentle and caring in doing so. I also highly recommend Zoom teeth whitening. It whitened my teeth many shades. Love the results!!

Dr Martinez is very kind and informative. His team of hygienists are great also, very caring and gentle. Annette was above and beyond today helping figure out my estimate and end payment along with her kindness and comfort during my procedure.

Brittany C.

Everyone there is very nice, they do great work. I went to the same dentist for over 30 years and had to switch for insurance reasons. I was not a fan of having to switch, however I found a great dentist, dental assistants and office. I would highly recommend.

I have been nothing but pleased since transferring my dental care here. All of my experiences have been amazing from start to finish. Everyone is always so helpful, and Renee and Meredith are ALWAYS smiling at the front desk when you walk in and leave!!!
