It is important that you are comfortable with every aspect of your time under our care. This includes being comfortable with your payment options. In addition to accepting most major credit cards, we also suggest patients consider CareCredit as a financing resource.

CareCredit

We are committed to working with you to attain and maintain oral health. We will always speak openly and honestly about the treatment options that are available to you. We will also answer your questions about how your dental insurance might help you pay for some or all your care. Please keep in mind that your dental insurance is an agreement between two parties – you and your provider. We utilize our intraoral camera to send proof of your diagnosis and treatment to your provider, however, any disputes or limitations as to what your provider will cover is up to you to work out with them. We will be happy to estimate any balances that will be due or any fees prior to you selecting your treatment.
