Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What precautions is the office taking for Covid-19 and other airborne pathogens?
Our office continues to strictly follow all of ADA, CDC, and OSHA guidelines in regards to infection control. We have High-filtration Ionizers installed on our AC system to filter the air and keep the air clear of any mold, bacteria and viruses. We also have individual HEPA filtration units outside the operatories to further filter and circulate the air. Our staff wears proper PPE plus N95 masks during all patient contact. Our lobby is set up to allow plenty of room for patients to distance themselves. Our treatment rooms are thoroughly sanitized after each use and our instruments are sterilized after each use.
Are you In-Network with my Insurance?
We participate with several insurance carriers as In-Network providers but we also work with ALL insurance companies to submit your claims and accept assignment of benefits. Often times, there is very little difference in the patient’s out-of-pocket expense between In-Network and Out-of-Network plans. Our highly trained team is always available to check your individual policy and advise you on your coverage.
Do you accept any payment plans?
We provide multiple options for your financing needs including Care Credit and Lending Club. We sponsor 12 months with no interest as well as other options.
Do you treat patients with Dental Anxiety?
Your comfort is our primary goal. Each treatment room has a TV screen over the chair for patient education, to view your radiographs and images, and also for patients to watch Netflix or YouTube with wireless headsets to help with relaxation during procedures. We offer pillows and weighted blankets for enhanced comfort. We also offer Nitrous Oxide for anxiety control as well as Minimal Oral Sedation when needed. Our best asset is our highly trained, caring team members whose goal it is to make each visit relaxing, comfortable and pain-free.
