2. Services Offered We provide general dentistry, restorative dentistry, periodontal care, and oral surgery, including dental implant procedures. The content on our website is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment. Always consult with a licensed dentist for your specific dental needs.
3. Appointment Policies
Appointments can be scheduled online, over the phone, or in person.
To cancel or reschedule, please notify us at least 48 hours in advance. Failure to do so may result in a late cancellation fee or limitation on scheduling future appointments.
4. Payment Terms
Payments are due at the time of service unless prior arrangements are made.
We accept cash, major credit cards, and most insurance plans. Please confirm your insurance coverage before your appointment.
Financing options may be available for certain procedures; inquire with our staff for details.
If your dental insurance does not cover the service provided, the patient will be responsible for the payment, regardless of the reason for non-payment. This includes situations such as services being out of frequency, not in-network, or not a covered benefit. It is the patient’s responsibility to determine whether we are an in-network provider, verify benefits and eligibility, and track treatment history. Due to the diverse nature of dental insurance plans, our office cannot guarantee coverage or spend extended periods on the phone verifying individual plans. We will assist with insurance verification if the plan is familiar to us but cannot be held responsible for charges not paid by insurance.
