No dental insurance?
Ask about our in-house membership plan.
Annual membership is $350 per person and includes preventive visits, necessary X-rays, care planning, and savings on eligible additional treatment. Family members who enroll together may join for $300 each per year.
Understand an estimate
A pre-treatment estimate is not a guarantee of benefits. Deductibles, annual limits, waiting periods, frequency rules, and alternate-benefit provisions may affect coverage.
Discuss the full plan
Ask about the recommended treatment, alternatives, timing, estimated patient portion, and available ways to pay before you commit to care.
