What the record tells you
University of Louisville School of Dentistry, the trading name of University of Louisville, is an NPI registry record for a dental organization at 501 S Preston St in Louisville, Kentucky 40202. CMS issued NPI 1861413098 on 22 July 2006, and the practice last updated its own entry on 26 July 2017. That was 9 years ago, so treat the phone number and the suite number as unconfirmed until someone answers. CMS records it as a subpart of The University of Louisville, so billing and pricing may follow the parent's policies.
It is registered under 10 dental taxonomy codes: Dentist (122300000X), Endodontics (1223E0200X), General practice dentistry (1223G0001X), Oral and maxillofacial pathology (1223P0106X), Pediatric dentistry (1223P0221X), Periodontics (1223P0300X), Prosthodontics (1223P0700X), Oral and maxillofacial surgery (1223S0112X), Oral and maxillofacial radiology (1223X0008X), Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics (1223X0400X). That puts it in 8 categories on this site, led by general dentistry. A practice that registers more than one category is telling CMS it does more than one kind of dental work at this address, which is why it has a page here rather than a row. No other address in the registry carries this name, though a practice trading under a chain brand often registers each office under its own legal name, so check the brand as well.
Louisville holds 306 registered dental practices inside the Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN area, which has 397 in total on the Kentucky side and ranks 1st in the state. 162 of the Louisville records also register general dentistry, so this is one of several local options in that category. Across the metro the mix runs general dentistry 51.9%, dental clinic or center 28.2%, pediatric dentistry 8.8%. The closest other registered practices are Children and Youth Dental Clinic (0.1 miles, Louisville), Associates in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, PLC (0.3 miles, Louisville) and Downtown Dental Center (0.3 miles, Louisville), with 2 more inside 0.4 miles.
On our figures a routine adult cleaning in Kentucky runs $82 to $108 cash and scaling and root planing $155 to $240 per quadrant, against a US average of $125. This practice's own prices are not in the registry and never will be: NPPES holds identifiers, not fees. Call (502) 852-5096 and ask for the cash price on code D1110, whether the exam and X-rays are included, and whether they run a membership plan if you have no insurance.

What to ask when you call
- The cash price for D1110, a routine adult cleaning, and whether the exam (D0120) and X-rays (D0274) are inside or outside that number.
- Whether you need scaling and root planing before a routine clean, and the per-quadrant price for D4341 or D4342 if so.
- Whether they run an in-house membership plan, and what it covers against what it costs a year.
- Whether they are taking new patients and how far out the next hygiene appointment is.
- The practice license, with your state dental board. An NPI is a billing identifier and proves nothing about licensing.
CMS NPPES NPI data file, August 2026, snapshot 10 August 2026. US federal public data (FOIA-disclosable, no charge). CMS NPI files. NPI registry records, status as reported by CMS in the August 2026 data dissemination file. NPPES is an identifier registry, not a license register: an NPI does not validate that a practice is licensed, accredited or currently open. Practices maintain their own NPPES entries. Every page shows the date the record was last updated; addresses and phone numbers are as self-reported and are not verified by us. This page describes a registry record. It is not a review, an endorsement or a check on University of Louisville School of Dentistry.
Price figures are our own, last verified April 2026. State averages are our estimates compiled from FAIR Health regional cost data and CMS Medicare fee schedules; the ADA discontinued its national Survey of Dental Fees in 2023, so no national fee survey exists. Treat them as a starting point and call two or three offices for an actual quote.
