FAQ's What does it cost for a checkup? The first appointment for a new patient includes x-rays, oral cancer exam, periodontal screening for gum disease and examining the teeth. From the information gathered, a treatment plan is made and prioritized to take care of the most urgent needs first. Why can I just have my teeth cleaned? Think of it like this. You can just wax your car without washing it or doing any maintenance or repairs to the engine. This may make your car look better, but it would definitely be a very poor way of caring for your car. Do you accept payment from my insurance? We accept traditional insurance. Although we are not a provider for PPO insurance, out of network benefits do apply and payments are often similar to provider coverage. On your first visit, we will file your insurance to reimburse you for payment. On sub sequential visits, we allow payments from the insurance to be made directly to your account. Our staff is highly experienced in this area. Call us about your specific coverage and we can answer your questions. How can I afford dental treatment? We have a very good finance company: CareCredit®. Some plans offer no interest and low payments. We will help you maximize any insurance benefits you have. Often, just by phasing your treatment, taking care of the most urgent needs first, we can fit the important health care in to your budget. What is the difference between cosmetic and general dentistry? The two disciplines go hand in hand. Both are necessary to ensure that the final results no only look great but are functional, healthy, and long lasting. Additional training in cosmetic dentistry, as our office has completed, is necessary for those beautiful smile makeovers.
