WHAT IS DENTAL INSURANCE?  dental insurance is a contract between YOU and your dental insurance company and your employer.  The benefits that you receive are based on the terms of the contract-NOT our dental office. The goal of most insurance companies is to provide only the most basic dental services.  Your insurance is based on the cost of the policy and the negotiated coverage with the dental insurance compnay.  Most importantly, you should familiarize yourself with the benefits of your policy as dental insurances rarely cover 100 percent of any dental fee.  For some services, dental insurance policies cover less than 50 percent, or nothing at all!

OUR PHILOSOPHY  Our office remains dedicated to providing optimal care for every patient and working with you to achieve that goal.  We pride ourselves in helping you in every way possible to provide the quality of care in which you have become accustomed. 

DENTAL INSURANCE  is a complicated issue that creates confusion for many patients.  The complexities of insurance and the lack of sufficient information provided by some companies make it very difficult for some patients to understand their benefits.  Even more confusing can be figuring out how to properly work with your insurance company to obtain all the benefits you are required. 

HOW OUR OFFICE HELPS  as part of our commitment to outstanding customer service, we will

*work with you to achieve the maximum reimbursement to which you are entitled

*complete and submit insurance forms on your behalf

*provide you with accurate and timely information about any fees not covered by your plan

PREDETERMINATION POLICIES   many insurance companies try to control the amount of dentistry you receive by requiring authorization for procedures in advance.  Our office will do everything possible to help you to maximize the insurance benefits to which you are entitled.  We recognize that the authorization process is often frustrating and time consuming!

ELECTIVE TREATMENT  most elective procedures ( some cosmetics, implant, orthodontics) to name a few, are typically not covered by most insurance companies.  We hope this won't discourage you from moving forward with treatment that can greatly enhance your quality of life!  We believe that everyone deserves a great smile and offer a variety of flexible payment options to make elective treatment affordable for all our patients.
