WHAT TO EXPECT

Dental and Medical insurances often cover all or a portion of necessary dental treatment. However, the patient is also responsible for the remaining balances that insurance may not reimburse. Because we know budgeting and personal finances are important, we offer payment options for your essential dental care.

As a courtesy to our patients, we verify insurance coverage benefits and provide estimates on coverage prior to the start of any procedure. We will work closely with you to determine benefits as they apply to your treatment needs. While we accept and file all dental and medical insurance paperwork for our patients, we are also directly in-network with:

  • Tricare - United Concordia
  • Sun Life
  • BCBS of NC
  • Delta Dental Premier
  • Veterans Affairs
  • NC Medicaid

If you have insurance be sure that you thoroughly fill out ALL the pertinent information, and/or bring your insurance card with you at your first visit.

Please remember the contract is between you and your insurance carrier. Therefore you are ultimately responsible for all treatment-related charges. Our experience is that insurance companies can and will be arbitrary and capricious regarding the denial or the reduction in payment of benefits when dealing with us. The insured, if willing, can often get further than we can, when dealing with the insurance company's representative.

Our office accepts traditional payment methods such as:

  • Cash
  • Credit Card (VISA, DISCOVER, Master Card and American Express)
  • Debit Card
  • Personal Check
