Frequently asked questions:

Should I make dental treatment decisions based on what my insurance will pay?
No. Unfortunately many people do. Our dentist prefers to discuss a treatment plan's advantage and disadvantages with you independent of the constraints of your insurance policy.
How much does my insurance cover?
No insurance plan is intended to cover all of your costs. Some plans pay fixed amounts and others pay a percentage. We will work with you to determine what your insurance will cover.
Are most routine dental services covered by insurance?
Many routine dental services are not covered. It is important that your discuss your limits of coverage with your employer and insurance company.
Who is ultimately responsible for paying my dentist?
When you agree to be treated by our dentist, you accept direct responsibility for payment of your treatment. Our staff may assist you in filing insurance forms, they can't guarantee any estimated coverage.
What does it mean when my insurance company states my dentist's fees "exceed usual, customary and reasonable (UCR)"?
It usually means that your insurance benefits are too low. If you have a more expensive policy, the insurance company will often pay a higher amount. Remember, you only get what you and your employer pay for less the profits of the insurance company.
Payment is expected at the time services are performed. We accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, or Discover. We do take many insurance plans. When extensive dental care is necessary or when dental insurance is involved, financial arrangements can be made with our office. Our primary concern is your dental care. Nonetheless, we will be sensitive to your financial circumstances within the framework of sound business practices.
