First Visit

Your Initial Appointment

Your initial appointment will take approximately one hour and will include a comprehensive oral evaluation, digital X-rays and a consultation to discuss your personalized treatment plan. A written estimate of costs and insurance benefits, if applicable, will be provided for you at this time.

Please let us know prior to your visit if you have a medical condition that may require special assistance or need to take medication prior to dental cleanings (i.e. antibiotics for premedication due to endocarditis or joint replacement)

IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 at the initial visit.

Billing & Financing

Payment for services is due at the time services are rendered. For patients with insurance, this includes any co-payments and deductibles required by the insurance carrier. We accept cash, checks, Visa, Discover and MasterCard.

Although we do not offer financing, we do have CareCredit applications available. CareCredit is a finance company which offers six and twelve month interest free loans to qualified applicants.

Insurance

If you have dental insurance, we will help you to receive your maximum allowable benefits and, as a courtesy to our patients, our office will bill your insurance company. Most insurance companies will respond within four to six weeks. Please call our office at (831) 426-1343 if your statement does not reflect your insurance payment within that time frame. Please bring your insurance card or policy number and insurance company phone number with you at your first visit.
