Financing & Insurance
Insurance
We participate in the Cigna Radius Network and Delta Dental Premier Network. As a courtesy to our patients, we file all insurance claims whether we are in or out of network. If your insurance requires you to see an in-network dentist your insurance company will still pay, but it may be less than a preferred provider would receive resulting in a higher out of pocket expense for you. If you have questions, we will try to help, but you may need to contact your employer or insurance company directly. Please bring your insurance information with you!
Patients with insurance should plan to pay any deductibles or estimated costs that are not covered when services are rendered. We estimate your portion based on the most up to date information we have, but it is only an estimate! We recommend a pre-treatment estimate for procedures over $300.00. Some insurance companies recommend this also. It is not a guarantee of coverage, but it will help you to understand how much insurance will pay. Please be aware dental benefit plans will never pay for the total cost of your dental care. It is only meant to assist you.
Financing
We offer patients the option to finance with CareCredit or use their existing CareCredit card to help pay for treatments. CareCredit allows for patients to help cover deductibles or pay for treatments not covered by insurance and is accepted by over 200,000 medical professionals nation-wide.
- CareCredit can also:
- Help cover preventative treatments
- Help cover restorative & cosmetic treatments
- Is accepted by over 200,000 healthcare providers
