The First Appointment:

If you are interested in cosmetic dentistry, we offer a cosmetic consultation to all new patients. During the consultation we will discuss your cosmetic options for creating the smile you've always wanted. Otherwise for general dental patients, at your first visit, all areas of your mouth will be thoroughly examined. This process will include a detailed examination of the teeth, soft tissue, bite and more. A complete set of x'rays will be taken and models of your teeth will be made if necessary. All the information that we obtain will be carefully evaluated so that we may accurately assess your dental needs.

 

Preventative Oral Hygiene Appointment:
After your examination, you will be ready for the preventative oral hygiene session. Specific approaches will be recommended for your individual needs. Your teeth will be cleaned by one of our licensed dental hygienists, a professional dedicated to your receiving maximum longevity from your natural dentition. We consider this session to be one of the most valuable services we offer to our patients.

 

Dental Evaluation and Plan for treatment: 

After your preventative appointment, we will explain your dental evaluation and plan for treatment. Immediate needs as well as long term objectives will be considered. Our recommendations will be based on the goal of your receiving  maximum life for your natural teeth.

 

Financial Arrangements:

Payment is expected at the time services are performed. We accept cash, checks, Visa and Mastercard.

When extensive dental care is necessary or when dental insurance is involved, financial arrangements can be made with our office manager. Please inquire about our financing plans. Care Credit is a convenient way to finance most dental procedures. Our primary concern is your dentistry. Nonetheless, we will be sensitive to your financial circumstances within framework of sound business practices.

 

Dental Insurance:

Our office will prepare all of the necessary forms for this important benefit. However, we remind you that your policy is an agreement between you and your insurance company, not between your insurance company and our office. We can make no guarantee of any estimated coverage, but will do our best to see that you receive your maximum benefits. Please keep in mind that you are responsible for your total obligation should your insurance benefits result in less coverage than anticipated. If you would like to know what your expected coverage will be, we will submit a pre-treatment estimate. Tour insure will generally send a detailed response within 4-6 weeks.

 

Cosmetic Dentistry and Insurance:

Cosmetic procedures are generally not covered by most dental insurance policies; however, partial benefits are often available if the teeth are broken or have previous dental fillings, bonding or crowns.  Also, most insurance companies will pay approximately 80% of the cost for silver-mercury fillings on back teeth. If a more expensive porcelain or tooth-colored filling material is used, the insurance company usually still pays their percentage based on the cost of the less expensive silver-mercury filling.
