Dental insurances
We know dental insurance can be tricky to navigate! We are considered an "out-of-network" provider with dental insurance plans. If your dental insurance offers out-of-network coverage (many do- meaning you are not assigned to a specific dentist), you will be able to use your dental insurance benefits with us.
What does “out of network” provider mean?
We are not directly contracted with different dental insurances so our fees are not determined by the insurance companies. You will be able to use your insurance benefits for covered procedures, then be responsible for the difference between what your insurance covers and our fees.
How does that affect my fees?
For preventative procedures (prophylaxis cleaning, radiographs, check-up’s), many plans will pay for majority of your cost. For additional procedures, you may be responsible for more. Our goal is to always give you a solid estimate of your treatment and fees, so that you can manage and coordinate your dental treatment. For bigger treatments, we are happy to send a preauthorization to your insurance company for a more accurate estimate.
What do I have to do?
Please give us your accurate and up-to-date dental insurance information at each visit. We will file and process dental claims with your insurance, just like any other dental office. Depending on your insurance plan, we may request your portion at each visit.
For plans where we request full payment, insurance companies may send you a check directly. You will keep the reimbursement check the insurance company sends you.
Do you have patients that have dental insurance?
Yes! We have many patients that have dental insurances (Delta, Aetna, United Concordia, etc) that use their insurance benefits in our office. Please call us to find out more at (610) 449-7002.
