HOW TO MAKE A PAYMENT
Payment for services or proof of insurance is required at the time of treatment.
Once a treatment plan has been developed and agreed upon by the provider, faculty and patient, the patient will sign the treatment plan. Payment arrangements are possible for some procedures; check with your individual clinic, as arrangements are not available for all clinics.
INSURANCE
The Insurance Information Sheet has a full list of participating and non-participating dental insurance carriers/programs.
Claim handling for insurance companies we do not accept. We will issue a courtesy claim for you to submit to your insurance carrier once full payment has been received and posted to your account.
PATIENT EDUCATION
A visit to the dentist's office can be an intimidating experience. As with other medical disciplines, dentistry employs a vocabulary that may not be familiar to those outside the field. The Patient Education section strives to inform patients of dental terms and procedures.
In addition, the Patient Education has instructional videos on how to improve your dental health.
