As a courtesy to our patients with dental insurance, we will complete and submit your claim to your insurance carrier for you. Most insurance companies respond within four to six weeks, and you will receive a monthly statement reflecting any remaining balance.
Every plan is different, and coverage often varies depending on the type of treatment. Preventive and restorative services such as fillings, crowns, and root canals are often covered in part by many plans, while elective cosmetic treatments like porcelain veneers are typically not. Our team is happy to help you review your benefits so you know what to expect.

We will make every effort to estimate your costs before your visit so that you can be prepared. For larger treatment plans, such as dental implants or clear aligners, we will walk you through the estimated investment during your consultation so there are no surprises.
