Dental Insurance Support

Maximizing Your Reimbursement Benefits

While our office is not in-network with insurance providers, we are happy to assist patients with insurance reimbursement by:

  • Submitting claims to your carrier on your behalf
  • Providing all necessary documentation, including digital X-rays and written reports
  • Clarifying benefits and outlining expected out-of-pocket costs


Dental insurance is typically a benefit offered through your employer, and reimbursements are based on the contract between your employer and the insurance company. Most carriers respond within 4–6 weeks. If your account does not reflect payment after that time, please follow up with your insurance provider or contact our office for assistance.

It is important to note that our treatment recommendations are based solely on clinical needs—not on insurance limitations. We are committed to helping you achieve optimal oral health with the highest standard of care.
