Financial Polices & Dental Insurance
Our team is completely dedicated to ensuring your optimal dental health. We will do everything we can to assist you with financial arrangements for your dental services, no matter what type of treatment you require. Our practice offers a wide range of payment options, streamlining your dental experience so you can get the treatment you need when you need it.
Dental Insurance Options
As a courtesy to our patients, we are happy to help you by completing and filing insurance claims to maximize your coverage and flex spending. If your insurance company has questions or comments about the service you received in our office, we will provide them with documented proof of your visit, including x-rays and diagnostic reports.
It is important for each patient to understand their dental care coverage. In general, dental insurance has a deductible, which is a specified dollar amount that the insured party is required to pay before coverage kicks in. After the deductible is met, most plans have coverage allowances or co-pays for each specific dental service.
Many insurance companies also offer free or significantly discounted preventive care coverage, which means that you might have access to inexpensive procedures like dental exams, sealants, or basic restorations.
Many dental insurance carriers have strict service exclusions which may not be detailed on the insurance card itself; such exclusions often encompass anything classified as orthodontic care, cosmetic dentistry, or elective dentistry, including dental implants, teeth whitening, or dental bonding.
We encourage patients to contact their insurance company and request the details of their policy. Share what you learn with our doctors. If a needed dental service is not covered, our clinicians will work closely with you to create a treatment plan that will meet your needs and fit your budget.

Cancellation Policy
We ask that you provide us with at least two (2) business days notice if you are unable to keep an appointment. Cancelled or rescheduled appointments without proper notice make it difficult to provide optimum care for our other patients who are waiting to be seen. We find that appointments canceled or rescheduled with less than two (2) business days, could result in an additional charge. We appreciate your consideration!
