Understanding Dental "Insurance"
"Dental insurance" is a misnomer, as it does guarantee compensation for loss or damage. Instead, dental benefit plans are more like savings or maintenance plans. It is up to the individual to make the most of their benefits plan and keep oneself healthy.
Our practice accepts all PPO dental benefit plans. We are out of network for all plans but in network for Delta Dental Premier. We do everything possible to see that our patients receive the full benefits of their policies. We can generally estimate dental benefits reasonably well, but sometimes benefit plans do not cover as much as expected or may deny coverage for certain procedures. Importantly, dental benefit plans are an agreement between the patient, the patient's employer, and the dental benefit plan. Patients are thus responsible for any amount not covered by their dental benefit plan.
If you require assistance in planning for a co-pay, please make arrangements with us prior to your visit. We offer flexible, no-interest plans through CareCredit.
