Dental Insurance
We will gladly file all dental claims with your dental insurance provider and assist you in taking full advantage of your benefits. We can also submit a predetermination of benefits to your dental insurance provider prior to any treatment to assess the benefits provided by your plan.
While we do not limit your treatment to what your dental benefits may allow, we are respectful of concerns regarding the cost of dental care and work with you to control those costs. If your employer provides you with dental benefits, please bring your insurance card or insurance information to your initial visit. We recommend that you review your dental benefits booklet to better understand your plan’s limitations.
Payment
For your benefit and peace of mind, treatment will not begin until the method of payment for services to be performed in our office has been determined. For your convenience we are pleased to offer several affordable payment plans to qualified individuals.
