Flexible Spending Accounts
You can check to see whether your employer offers a medical spending account. Medical spending accounts allow you to cover your dental treatment cost using pre-tax income that is set aside for medical expenses.
Insurance Coverage
Our team will work with you to help you understand your benefits, and how much of the treatment will be covered. Important points to know when using insurance to pay for your dental treatment include:
- Benefits are determined by each individual’s insurance, not the dental practice.
- Insurance companies will typically cover up to 50 percent of the total cost, but rarely more.
- Some more extensive procedures and treatments may require a longer authorization from your insurance carrier.
Budgeting for Your Procedure
Budgeting and understanding more about the cost of the procedure will help you plan for your future and prepare you for your treatment. We have provided information and estimated cost of some of our popular procedures.
