Many patients are unaware of the specifics of their dental insurance benefits, which are determined by the agreement between your employer and your insurance carrier. Please review your employer's insurance benefits booklet to better understand the benefits included in your insurance coverage. The portion of the procedure fee that your employer covers varies.

At the time of treatment, we’ll provide you with an estimate of the amount covered by your insurance company based on the information they provide us. The estimate is not a guarantee of benefits or payment. As a courtesy to our patients, we’ll file all insurance claims. If the insurance company's payment is less than or more than the estimate, you will be billed for the difference or issued a credit on your account should there be an overpayment. Kindly notify us in advance if you have any questions about our policies or financing options.

We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express for your convenience. Additionally, we provide financing through Care Credit®.

CareCredit can assist you in paying for dental procedures that your insurance does not cover. CareCredit offers interest-free financing and low minimum monthly payment options to help you manage your dental health.

It's simple to apply for CareCredit. For additional information or to apply for financing, click here.

Please print and fill out our new patient forms and bring them with you to your first appointment, or plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early to fill them out at our office. 

Additionally, we ask that you bring your dental insurance card and a list of any medications you are currently taking.
