How we care for patients

You make the decisions

We take time to explain your options, so you feel confident choosing the treatment plan that is right for you. You are a partner in your care.

Care for every age

We treat children, parents, and grandparents. We will teach your child good oral hygiene habits, and that visiting the dentist can be fun.

We work with your insurance

We welcome patients with dental insurance and those without. We help you make the most of your benefits and accept assignment when your policy allows it.

About our practice

Our experienced team is committed to providing quality care in a courteous manner and a friendly atmosphere. Our goal is to make your visit as pleasant and comfortable as possible.

Your first visit

We know a trip to the dentist is not high on anyone’s list. We will do our best to make your visit comfortable. You will get a thorough exam and a status report on your oral and dental health. Your first visit includes:

  • A full-mouth dental and periodontal exam
  • X-rays, so we can assess your condition
  • A cleaning, depending on your gum health
  • An oral cancer screening

Health history form

We need a health history form before your first visit, and any time your information changes. Download it, fill it out, and bring it with you. You can also fill it out at the office before your visit.

Policies

Insurance

We work with all patients, whether self-insured or covered by dental insurance. We will do our best to help you make the most of your benefits, and we are happy to accept assignment when your policy allows it.

We can only provide an estimate of benefits. Depending on your coverage, actual reimbursement may vary.

Appointments

When you schedule an appointment, that time is reserved exclusively for you. If you can’t keep it, please call us to reschedule.

Please give us 24 hours’ notice if you need to change your appointment. We greatly appreciate it.

Payment

Payment is due when services are provided. This includes co-payments and deductibles, which are the balances your insurance does not pay.
