Office desk policies image

Understanding our policies regarding insurance and financial options is crucial for patients seeking dental care.

Our office is committed to making dental care accessible by navigating dental insurance intricacies, offering various payment options, and assisting you with any questions regarding financial policies or financing options to ensure a smooth and informed treatment process.

Insurance

Most Insurances Accepted.
We accept any PPO plan that allows you to choose your own dentist, and we are in network with the following:

  • Delta Premier
  • Aetna

Please call our office so we can maximize your individual benefits accordingly to your needs.

Dental Insurance is different from Medical Insurance. Many patients aren’t familiar with the specifics of their dental insurance benefits. Your dental benefits are based on the agreement your employer negotiated with your insurance carrier. Please review the insurance benefit booklet provided by your employer to better understand the benefits they make available as part of your insurance coverage. The patient payment portion covered for procedures varies depending on the coverage provided by your employer.

An estimate of the amount covered by your insurance company will be provided at the time of your treatment, based on the information they provide to us. The estimate is never a guarantee of benefits or the amount that will be paid. We will file all insurance claims as a courtesy to our patients. This does not however, transfer the responsibility of your financial obligation to the insurance company. If the amount paid by the insurance company is less than or greater than the estimate, then you will be billed the difference or issued a credit on the account in the event of an overpayment. Please let us know if you have questions about our financial policies or financing options prior to your treatment.

Financial Policy

Dental care should not be a financial burden. We strive to make your dental care affordable by offering a variety of payment options as well as making the most of your dental insurance benefits.

If you do not currently have dental insurance, or the procedure you require is not covered under your plan, we have many flexible and convenient payment plans. With approved credit, patients and their families can take advantage of the following:

  • 12 Months Interest Free Financing
  • Convenient Payment Plans
  • Internet-Based Insurance Submission & Tracking
