1. Can I get an extraction if I am waiting for insurance to kick in?
Yes, you can come in for an extraction, but the cost will depend on the tooth being extracted. An exam and X-ray will cost $137, and the extraction may cost more than $200, depending on the complexity.

2. Do you offer payment plans for dental procedures?
The clinic does not offer in-house payment plans. However, they do provide financing options through third-party companies. You can apply for financing, and pre-approval or denial will help determine your payment options.

3. What should I do before my appointment if I want to use financing?
Before your appointment, you should fill out a few questions from the financing links sent to you. This will help determine if you are pre-approved or need to bring more cash to cover the cost.

4. What if I can’t complete the financing application before my appointment?
If you can’t complete the application before your appointment, you can fill it out when you arrive, and the staff will assist you in working through it.

2. What can be done if my insurance company says implants are covered, but my treatment plan doesn’t reflect that?
The dental office can submit a pre-authorization request to your insurance provider to confirm coverage details. They will contact you once they receive a response.

3. How can I confirm if my dental insurance covers implants?
Contact your dental insurance provider directly and verify if implants are a covered benefit under your plan.

1. Why doesn’t my insurance coverage show on my treatment plan?
If implants are not a covered benefit under your plan, the cost will appear as your responsibility on the treatment plan.

2. What if my insurance provider says implants are covered?
If your insurance provider states that implants are covered, we can submit a pre-authorization request to confirm the coverage and provide an updated cost estimate.

3. How long does a pre-authorization take?
Pre-authorizations typically take 2-4 weeks to process. We will notify you as soon as we receive a response.

4. What should I do if I’m unsure whether my dental or medical insurance applies?
If you’re uncertain, please contact both your dental and medical insurance providers for clarification. We can assist by submitting a pre-authorization to confirm coverage.

5. When should I expect a follow-up after my pre-authorization request?
Once we submit your pre-authorization, we will contact you as soon as we receive confirmation from your insurance provider.

3. Should I bring a temporary denture to my oral surgery appointment?
Yes, if your oral surgeon recommends it, we can provide you with a temporary denture to take to your appointment for immediate placement.

4. Why are you concerned about bone loss during extractions?
Oral surgeons sometimes remove excess bone during extractions, which can affect the fit and stability of dentures. We aim to preserve as much bone as possible for better long-term results.

7. What if I need adjustments or repairs to my dentures?

We can assess your dentures during a consultation and discuss the best solution for you.

8. Can I keep some of my natural teeth with dentures?

Yes, we can customize your dentures to clip onto your remaining natural teeth for improved stability.

1. What is the process for getting snap-on dentures?

The first step is a full exam and X-rays, where we assess your dental health and determine if you’re a candidate for implants. We then provide a full treatment plan, including financing options, and discuss the best approach for your needs.

2. How long does the consultation take?

The consultation typically takes about an hour and a half.

8. Do you accommodate patients with dental anxiety?

Yes, we understand dental anxiety and strive to make your visit as comfortable as possible. Many of our patients take anti-anxiety medication before their visit, and we are happy to discuss other ways to help ease your nerves.

4. Do you offer sedation for dental procedures?

Yes, we offer sedation, primarily for procedures like implants and oral surgery. If you have dental anxiety, we can discuss options to help you feel comfortable during your visit.

1. Do you accept patients who don’t have dental insurance?
