Navigating dental insurance can feel complex, but our experienced team is here to help you understand your coverage and make your care more affordable. We work with you to maximize your benefits and minimize your out-of-pocket expenses.

How Dental Insurance Works

Dental insurance is designed to help cover a portion of the costs associated with your dental care. Most plans cover preventive services like cleanings and exams at a high percentage, while restorative procedures like fillings or crowns are covered at a lower rate. Our team will verify your coverage before your appointment and provide an estimate of your costs, ensuring transparency and helping you plan for your treatment.

Benefits of Dental Insurance

Using dental insurance offers significant advantages for managing your oral health and your budget. It encourages regular preventive care, which is crucial for catching potential issues early and avoiding more complex and costly treatments down the road. With a dental plan, you gain peace of mind knowing you have support for unexpected dental emergencies and necessary restorative work.

  • Promotes Preventive Care: Most insurance plans fully or largely cover routine check-ups, cleanings, and X-rays. This encourages you to maintain regular appointments, which is the best way to prevent serious dental problems.
  • Reduces Financial Burden: Insurance significantly lowers your out-of-pocket costs for a wide range of procedures, from simple fillings to more involved treatments like root canals or crowns. This makes essential dental care more accessible and affordable for you and your family.
  • Provides Peace of Mind: Having dental coverage means you are prepared for unexpected dental issues. Whether it's a sudden toothache or an accidental injury, your insurance provides a safety net that helps manage the costs of urgent care.

Frequently Asked Questions About Insurance

What If I don't have dental insurance?
We believe everyone deserves access to quality dental care. Excellent Dentistry offers a Community Savings Program to help uninsured patients manage their dental costs. We also provide flexible financing options through Cherry and CareCredit.
What is the difference between in-network and out-of-network?
"In-network" means we have a contract with your insurance company to provide services at a negotiated rate, which usually results in lower out-of-pocket costs for you. "Out-of-network" means we do not have a contract with your provider, but we may still be able to file claims on your behalf.
Do you accept my insurance plan?
We accept most PPO insurance plans. The best way to confirm if we are in-network with your specific plan is to call our office directly with your insurance information, and our team will be happy to verify your coverage for you.
What costs will I be responsible for?
Your responsibility will depend on your specific plan's deductible, co-payment, and co-insurance details. We will provide you with a detailed estimate of your portion of the cost before any treatment begins.
Will you file the insurance claim for me?
Yes, as a courtesy to our patients, we will file all insurance claims on your behalf. Our team will handle the necessary paperwork to ensure your claims are processed efficiently.
