Dental Insurance

For patients with dental insurance, your out-of-pocket cost will depend on your insurance plan coverage. We always try to provide you with an estimate of your costs based on your coverage. However, there are no guarantees with dental insurance companies. Sometimes they exclude certain services for strange reasons. Other times they choose to pay for another type of service or deny the entire claim.

In-House Dental Savings Plan

For patients with no dental insurance, we offer an in-house savings plan. You can learn more about the dental savings plan here. This is great if you have extensive dental treatment.

Financing

The cost of extensive dental care adds up fast. And at times treatment takes so long to complete, like for braces. That’s why we offer financing options for our patients.
