How are Appointments Scheduled?
The office attempts to schedule appointments at your convenience and when time is available. Preschool children should be seen in the morning because they are fresher and we can work more slowly with them for their comfort. School children with a lot of work to be done should be seen in the morning for the same reason. Dental appointments are an excused absence. Missing school can be kept to a minimum when regular dental care is continued.
Since appointed times are reserved exclusively for each patient we ask that you please notify our office 24 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment time if you are unable to keep your appointment. Another patient, who needs our care, could be scheduled if we have sufficient time to notify them. We realize that unexpected things can happen, but we ask for your assistance in this regard.
Do I Stay with My Child During the Visit?
We invite you to stay with your child during every visit.
What About Finances?
Payment for professional services is due at the time dental treatment is provided. Every effort will be made to provide a treatment plan which fits your timetable and budget, and gives your child the best possible care. We accept cash, personal checks, debit cards and most major credit cards.
Our Office Policy Regarding Dental Insurance
If we have received all of your insurance information before your appointment, we will be happy to file your claim for you.
We are in-network providers for the following insurance companies:
-
United Health Care
-
Delta Dental (Premier)
-
Aetna (PPO)
-
Some Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans

We do submit to many other insurance carriers. However, it is best to check with them for your out-of-network benefits.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, please keep us informed of any changes such as the insured, id number or insurance company.
Unfortunately, we are not able to accept new patients with Caresource, Medicaid, and Molina at this time.
