We are pleased to be able to accept assignments of benefits from your dental insurance company. As a courtesy, we will file your insurance and help you maximize your benefits. Every insurance plan provides different levels of benefits based on the coverage your employer has provided.

We will complete a complementary benefits check that estimates your insurance coverage and your portion for treatment, which is due on the date of service.

Our financial and treatment coordinators will be happy to discuss any concerns you may have regarding our fees and our financial arrangements.
