Insurance

We participate with most major insurance carriers. 

If your insurance covers dental or orthodontic treatment, you will receive the benefit of reduced personal costs. Many insurance policies have a lifetime orthodontic benefit that is separate from regular dental insurance. Insurance policies vary, so we will review your insurance to determine the appropriate course of action and your down payment. Once treatment has started, we will file your insurance claims as a courtesy to you. We will verify your orthodontic coverage before your orthodontic evaluation. 

To help us with your insurance filing, please complete the insurance questions on our questionnaire. 

*Please remember that insurance is a benefit for you or your child. If, during the course of treatment, your benefits change, the financially responsible party is accountable for all charges. 

We will work hard to help you, our patient, acquire a healthy, beautiful smile for life.
