Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Your first smile evaluation at Dental Fitness is completely free and comes with no obligation to book any treatment. During this visit, Dr. Mario Garcia Caceres, DDS personally looks at your teeth, listens to what you actually want to change or fix, and walks you through your realistic options in plain language before talking about cost. We then explain pricing clearly and honestly, since every mouth and treatment plan is different, and there is never any pressure to decide on the spot. Most patients leave with a clear next step, whether that is smile design, dental implants, Invisalign or routine care. You can book online in under a minute, call us at (305) 758-5878, or message us on WhatsApp to get started at either our Miami or Fort Lauderdale office.

We have two South Florida offices, one in Miami and one in Fort Lauderdale, so patients across both counties have a convenient location nearby. Our Miami office sits at 8555 NE 2nd Ave, right on the border of El Portal and Miami Shores, with easy street and lot parking. Our Fort Lauderdale office is at 1009 W State Rd 84, just off the State Road 84 corridor, also with simple parking on arrival. Both locations are staffed by the same bilingual team and offer the full range of services, from general dentistry and cleanings to smile design, veneers, dental implants and All-on-4. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with Saturday available by appointment. Wherever you are in Miami-Dade or Broward, one of our offices is a reasonable drive away.

Absolutely, Dr. Mario Garcia Caceres, DDS and our entire team at both offices are fully bilingual in English and Spanish. That means you and your family can be treated comfortably in whichever language feels most natural, from your first phone call through every step of treatment, without needing an outside interpreter. This matters across a bilingual South Florida community, and it is why we also publish our full website in Spanish at dentalfitness.net/es/, with the same services, pricing philosophy, doctor credentials and patient reviews available in both languages. Whether you call us, message us on WhatsApp, or walk into our Miami or Fort Lauderdale office, you will be greeted and cared for in Spanish or English, whichever you and your family prefer for a stress-free visit.

We accept most major PPO dental plans, including Cigna, Aetna, Delta Dental, BCBS, United Healthcare, MetLife, DHA and Humana, across both our Miami and Fort Lauderdale offices. Insurance coverage and benefits vary a lot from plan to plan and procedure to procedure, so rather than guessing over the phone, our team verifies your specific benefits for free before your visit whenever possible. If you do not see your exact plan listed here, that does not necessarily mean we cannot work with it: call us at (305) 758-5878 and we will check your coverage directly. For treatments your plan does not fully cover, such as cosmetic work or implants, we also offer flexible financing so out-of-pocket costs stay manageable and predictable.

That is not a problem at Dental Fitness: a large share of our patients pay without traditional dental insurance. We keep our pricing transparent and give you an honest, personalized quote at your free evaluation rather than a one-size-fits-all number, since costs depend on your specific treatment plan. On top of that, we offer flexible financing with comfortable monthly payments, including 0% interest options in many cases through CareCredit for patients who qualify. This applies whether you need routine general dentistry, dental implants, All-on-4, or cosmetic treatments like veneers and smile design. Because we also run our own in-house dental lab for crowns, veneers and implant restorations, we can often keep costs lower than practices that outsource that work, which helps make treatment realistic even without insurance.

Yes, we offer flexible financing at both our Miami and Fort Lauderdale offices, with comfortable monthly payments designed to fit real budgets rather than requiring one large payment upfront. In many cases, qualified patients can access 0% interest plans through CareCredit, which means spreading out the cost of treatment without paying extra in interest. This financing applies across our services, from general dentistry and dental crowns to bigger investments like dental implants, All-on-4 full-arch restorations, and smile design with porcelain veneers. We walk you through all of the specific options, monthly amounts and terms during your free evaluation, once we know your exact treatment plan, so there are no surprises. Combined with our transparent, honest pricing, financing is one of the main ways we make quality dental care accessible for South Florida families.

Yes, walk-ins are welcome at both our Miami and Fort Lauderdale offices, and we prioritize dental emergencies so you can be seen as fast as possible, often the very same day. If you are dealing with sudden tooth pain, a cracked or broken tooth, a knocked-out crown, or any other urgent issue, please call us right away at (305) 758-5878 so our bilingual team can find you the soonest available opening at whichever office is closer to you. Being able to fit in emergencies quickly is one reason many South Florida families choose us as their regular dental home rather than searching for a new provider every time something urgent comes up. Our regular hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with Saturday appointments available on request.

Our own in-house dental lab is the single biggest difference: it means better quality control and typically better prices on crowns, veneers and implant restorations, since we are not paying an outside lab and passing that markup on to you. Add to that a fully bilingual team across both our Miami and Fort Lauderdale offices, honest upfront pricing instead of vague estimates, and flexible financing including 0% options for qualified patients, and you get dental care that genuinely feels personal rather than transactional. Dr. Mario Garcia Caceres, DDS leads treatment personally, from routine general dentistry to more involved work like dental implants, All-on-4 and full smile design with porcelain veneers. Patients consistently mention the family-like, unhurried approach as the reason they stay with us long term instead of switching offices.

Booking is simple and takes just a few minutes, no matter which method you prefer. You can book your free evaluation online in under a minute through our scheduling system, call us directly at (305) 758-5878, or send us a message on WhatsApp if that is more convenient for you. Once we hear from you, our bilingual team works with your schedule to find a time that fits, at whichever office is closer, Miami or Fort Lauderdale. There is no obligation tied to booking a free evaluation. It is simply the first step where Dr. Mario Garcia Caceres, DDS reviews your teeth, discusses your goals, and gives you clear, honest pricing before you decide on any treatment, whether that is general dentistry, implants, or cosmetic smile design.
