Financial Policies
Our office goal is to provide you with clear information regarding our dental fees, payment options, and your insurance benefits. Before treatment begins, we will provide you with an estimate of the total fees expected. Please understand that this is only an estimate. Treatment can change for a variety of unforeseen reasons.
Payment for services will be expected the day treatment is rendered. Available payment options are:
-
- We accept all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
- Pre-payment Courtesy – If you pay your estimated portion the day of treatment, a 5% courtesy will be applied.
- Split payment – This option is available for patients who are diagnosed with treatment that will require multiple visits (ex: Crowns, Root-Canal Therapy). In this plan, half of the total cost will be paid at the beginning of treatment and the remaining half will be paid at the completion date.
- Care Credit – Care Credit is a health credit card that can be used to pay your complete balance. Upon approval, you may use your card and begin making monthly payments with zero percent interest from 6 months to a year, depending on the total cost of treatment. Care Credit Website.
