Our Dental Services in Shreveport, LA
Dental Cleanings for Adults & Children
We provide professional teeth cleanings for patients of all ages in Shreveport — from first visits for kids to routine care for adults and seniors. Regular cleanings every six months keep your smile healthy and help Dr. Kerst and Dr. Caskey catch small problems before they become costly ones.
Porcelain Veneers & Cosmetic Dentistry
Kerst & Caskey offers cosmetic dental services including porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, and cosmetic bonding for patients in Shreveport, LA. Dr. Kerst's advanced training at The Pankey Institute in aesthetic restorative dentistry means your smile is designed with precision, care, and a natural result in mind.
Jaw Pain, TMJ & Sleep Apnea Treatment
If you suffer from jaw pain, morning headaches, teeth grinding, or disrupted sleep, our Shreveport dental team can help with custom night guards and oral appliances, often with no surgery required. Many patients don't realize their dentist is often the first and best resource for TMJ disorders and mild to moderate sleep apnea.
Restorative Dentistry & Implants
Whether you need a filling, crown, bridge, or a permanent dental implant to replace a missing tooth, Kerst & Caskey focuses on helping Shreveport patients keep their natural teeth and restore what's been lost with durable, natural-looking results.
Accepting Dental Insurance
At Kerst & Caskey Family Dentistry in Shreveport, LA, we happily accept and file all private PPO dental insurance plans. Because we are not contracted with any dental insurance corporations, we can see patients with a wide range of plans while staying focused entirely on your care rather than insurance company guidelines.
Our team will work with your insurance to help you maximize your benefits and minimize out-of-pocket costs. We also keep our fees fair and transparent, because we believe excellent dentistry should be accessible to everyone in the Shreveport community.
For patients without dental insurance, we offer an annual low-cost membership plan that covers routine preventive care so cost is never a reason to skip a cleaning or checkup.
Have questions about your coverage? Call our office and we'll be happy to look into your benefits before your visit.
