Common Questions
We're at 8235 Country Village Dr, Indianapolis, IN 46214. Our hours are Monday 8:00 AM–2:00 PM, Tuesday through Thursday 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, Friday 8:00 AM–2:00 PM. We're closed Saturday and Sunday. For emergencies outside these hours, call (317) 299-4731 and follow the prompts.
It's one of the most common things our patients tell us. In the words of one patient: "The surgery was painless!" Dr. Gomes uses laser-assisted periodontal therapy, which reduces bleeding, swelling, and post-operative discomfort. We also take extra time with local anesthesia to make sure you're fully comfortable before any procedure begins.
During a routine exam, we use AI-powered diagnostic imaging that analyzes tissue patterns for early signs of oral cancer. It's non-invasive and takes just minutes. The AI flags areas that may need further evaluation — catching things at stages where treatment outcomes are dramatically better. This is a standard part of our comprehensive care, not an add-on upsell.
We offer a Dental Savings Plan with no annual caps, no waiting periods, and no preexisting condition exclusions. We also accept CareCredit financing so you can spread payments over time. During your consultation, we provide a clear treatment plan with costs upfront — before any work begins. We're also a Medicare Advantage provider for qualifying patients.
Most of our patients felt the same way before their first visit. Dr. Gomes is known for taking the time to explain every step. As one patient described it, he has the "best bedside manner I have ever encountered." Your first appointment is a conversation — we examine your mouth, explain what we find in plain language, and only proceed when you're ready and fully informed.
Patients choose us for Dr. Gomes' exceptional skill in fixing complex dental problems, combined with a highly professional staff that makes patients feel valued and cared for with painless procedures and personalized attention. We're one of the few Indianapolis periodontal offices with AI oral cancer screening, laser-assisted therapy, and AARP selection for accessible care — along with transparent financing options most practices bury in the fine print.
