Meet Dr. Yu
Everyone who has visited the dentist has had the experience of only spending about five minutes with the actual doctor before being rushed out the door. That’s NOT how Dr. Yu does things! Dr. Yu will spend around two hours with you during your new patient exam. You’ll receive 100% of her attention throughout your entire appointment, and she’ll work to not only learn as much as she can about your oral health and smile goals, but you as a person as well. From dental implants to emergency dentistry in Chevy Chase, this approach leads to more personalized care, more relaxed visits, and more beautiful results.

Dental Patient Testimonials
Frank P.,
"Dr Yu is a great dentist. Attentive, detailed and personable with excellent patient support. When I first saw her a few years ago, she fixed all the mistakes made by previous dentists and left me pain free for the first time in years. She makes going to the dentist a wonderful experience. ."
Jillian E.,

Toby l.,
"I have been seeing Dr. Yu for years and found her to be the most skilled and caring dentist I have ever had, which says a lot since I am over 70. Under her care, I have had zero cavities, no root canals or evidence of gum disease. She has fitted me for mouth guards which have been very important in preventing damage and shifting. Her efforts to educate in good oral care makes a difference."

How can I find a female dentist?
Did you know that approximately one third of all dentists working in the United States are women? On top of that, more than half of all, current dental school students in the country are women. A good place to that is Googling “female dentist near Chevy Chase.” Google should provide you with useful, accurate results. Check out the “Meet Your Dentist” section on their website to learn their biographical information. This way, you can decide if it is someone who you want to receive dental care from.
What do you do if you can’t afford a dentist?
Dentistry is all about prevention. It is affordable and offers high value if you work with your dentist to prevent serious dental issues before they develop and require costly restorative treatments. Dental insurance is an effective tool to help pay for dental care. If you have access to it, this is a great benefit to take advantage of. If you don’t have dental insurance, this doesn’t mean that you are completely out of luck. We are happy to accept payments through Cherry Financing. This company offers payment plans to better help your treatment fit into your budget.
How much does a dental check-up & cleaning cost in Chevy Chase?
The cost of cleanings and checkups can vary on geography and other factors. This visit should begin with going over your health history and discussing any concerns that you have. It should also include a thorough exam completed by the dentist, a professional cleaning, X-rays, and an oral cancer screening. The average in markets throughout the United States is between $200 and $350. If you have insurance, these fees are likely covered by your plan.
