Also, to make that you’re never stuck in the often challenging world of insurance policies and benefits, we strive to work with you, filing your insurance claims on your behalf, and working with more than 50 PPOs, including all of the major plans (if your insurance provider isn’t on this list, don’t worry; we will do all we can to work with you).

For good measure, if you need the flexibility and convenience of paying for your treatments in manageable monthly payments, we also accept the CareCredit healthcare credit card!

Frequently Asked Questions

During your first visit, you can expect a comprehensive exam, x-rays, a dental cleaning, and a personalized treatment plan.  

Comprehensive Exam

Your first appointment will typically include a detailed examination of your teeth and gums. This helps us understand your oral health status and any areas needing attention.

  • Review of medical and dental history
  • Visual examination of teeth, gums, and mouth
  • Oral cancer screening

Diagnostic Dental X-Rays

We may take x-rays during your first visit to get a complete picture of your oral health. This allows us to detect any underlying issues that aren’t visible during the visual exam.
