On your initial visit, we will make a customized treatment plan that will include a breakdown of all
applicable fees, and we will inform you of all costs before treatment is administered. Payment is expected at the time treatment is rendered, unless special arrangements have been made prior to your appointment.
Payment Options
It is our mission to provide you with affordable, high-quality treatment that fits your budget! We offer a variety of payment options to meet your needs. Our office accepts payments by:
- Cash
- Checks
- debit cards
- Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover credit cards
We offer in-house financing, such as individual payment plans, and we accept third-party financing through CareCredit. For a cash-paying patient, we would like the entire amount paid on the day of service, however if this cannot be done, we are always willing to set up a payment plan.
We also offer a 20% discount for patients with no dental insurance.
If you have any questions about financing or payment, ask us! We will thoroughly explain your choices and work hard to accommodate your needs.
Insurance
Our office team is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of all insurance contracts.
Please remember that insurance is a benefit for you or your child. If, during the course of treatment, your benefits change, the financially responsible party is accountable for all charges. You as the policy holder are responsible to know your full benefits, but we will do all we can to help you with any insurance issues.
Insurance companies usually pay only a portion of each visit. Therefore you are required to pay your full percentage on or prior to all appointments. You are personally responsible for your entire account after 45 days whether your insurance has paid us or not. Therefore, we encourage you to contact your insurance company if your policy has not paid us within 30 days. As a courtesy, we will submit all insurance claims for you.
We are contracted with several insurance companies. This means that we are “in-network” and have our fees on file with these insurance companies. They are: Delta Dental Premier, Delta Dental PPO, Aetna PPO, Cigna PPO, Guardian PPO and MetLife PPO. If you have any other PPO insurance and are allowed to go outside the network, you can see us, but your insurance will pay all fees based on their fee schedule, not ours. You are required to pay the difference. If you are unsure of your insurance policy, please give us a call.
