Insurance

MOST INSURANCE PLANS ACCEPTED AT OUR DENTAL OFFICE

If you pay for a dental insurance plan, then it is important that you understand the coverage to ensure that you are maximizing all of the benefits that are offered. Dental insurance is often available through your employer, or you can purchase a plan through an insurance agent. Don’t worry if you don’t have insurance coverage though because there are other financing options that can be considered.

At Wheaton Advanced Dental, our goal is to help you maximize your insurance coverage and manage the payments for your dental treatments. To help with the payment, we can help with the insurance claims for the treatments that are done. Most dental plans are designed to help by offsetting the costs of the dental treatments, so they don’t offer full coverage for all of the costs that are incurred.

Before the treatment is complete, we can provide you with an estimate for the services. This information will help you see your out-of-pocket costs and the amount that the insurance will likely pay. We can’t guarantee that insurance payment, so keep in mind that you will be responsible to check your benefits and make payments for balances that might be remaining.

NO INSURANCE? OPTIONS TO PAY FOR DENTAL TREATMENTS

Don’t be worried about visiting the dentist if you don’t have insurance because there are other options available. If you are in need of dental care, then we invite you to contact our office to learn more about the interest-free options that are available.

Our office has a payment plan administered through CareCredit, which will help you get the dental treatments that you need right away. This program is one of the leading services for patient payment plans. When you use CareCredit, you will be able to finance the entire treatment without paying any money down. Additionally, you don’t have to worry about pre-payment penalties, annual fees, upfront costs, or interest.

CareCredit allows you to get access to the dental treatments that are needed for the entire family, and there is no need to reapply each time you need to visit the dentist. You can choose from a comprehensive range of options, and the application is easy over the phone by calling 1-800-839-9078 or visiting their website at www.CareCredit.com.
