Our office works hard to make quality dentistry affordable. It is our experience that anyone can arrange to keep his or her teeth a lifetime and do so esthetically and comfortably. To this end there are multiple financial arrangements available.
For patients with dental insurance: our staff is trained to investigate your insurance to find out if we are in-network or out-of-network and will be happy to go over your specific benefits with you. As a service to you we file your insurance for you and will accept assignment from the insurance company making your out of pocket commitment significantly less. We can, upon request, write the insurance company ahead of time for a “pre-estimate” of exactly what their commitment is expected to be. Should it be required, written narratives with or without photographs are sent to the insurance company to assure that the patient receives the benefits they are entitled to.
At this time, our office does not work with DMO insurance. This is called a closed panel type of insurance, which requires you to choose only from a specific list of doctors. We believe this type of insurance is unfair to the patient and puts pressure on us to see the patient less frequently, use inferior materials, use less advanced laboratory services and in general treat you differently than we are accustomed to. PPO insurance companies, also known as Preferred Provider Organizations, also have a suggested list, and we regularly work with these plans but some restrictions may exist. If you have any questions, we encourage you to call our office and our staff will be happy to answer all your questions.
If you do not have dental insurance, our office has a selection of payment options. One option is a payment plan called Care Credit that allows qualified patients a monthly payment arrangement for different lengths of time that is interest free as long as the monthly payments are made in a timely fashion. Kindly call our office for all the details.
