FAQs

Yes — we work with most insurance plans and are happy to help you understand your coverage. However, we are not able to work with Medicaid or capitation (HMO-style) dental plans.

If you’re unsure about your plan, just call our office and we’ll be happy to review your benefits and explain how they work here. Even if we are not “in-network” with your insurance, many of our patients still receive significant reimbursement for their care, and we offer flexible payment options to make treatment affordable.

We participate with a select number of insurance plans. If we are not in-network with your plan, that doesn’t mean you can’t come to us — and your benefits may still cover much of your care here. Just give us a call so we can review your plan and explain how it works at our office.

Some insurance plans simply don’t provide adequate coverage for the level of personalized care, time, and quality materials we believe our patients deserve. By working independently from certain plans, we can focus on what’s best for you — not just what’s covered.

Not necessarily. Many of our out-of-network patients still receive significant reimbursement from their insurance company.

• Preventive visits (checkups, cleanings, X-rays) are often covered at or near 100%, even out-of-network.
• For basic or major dental work, you may have a slightly higher out-of-pocket cost compared to in-network coverage.
• Most dental plans have an annual maximum benefit, which applies whether you are in- or out-of-network.

We’ll handle all the claim paperwork for you and make sure you understand your estimated costs before treatment.

Yes. We offer nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) for relaxation during treatment, as well as computer-assisted anesthesia (STA) to make certain injections more comfortable. For children, we also have a Molar Media Mount so they can watch shows during treatment.
